I've been playing around sqlite for android studio while making a RPG game app until I came to these two questions:
Here's are the details of the problem:
There's a table called, 'monster', which is a table of enemy NPCs that has columns mon_ID, HP, MP, mon_str, mon_con, mon_dex, mon_int, drop_items.
It's the drop_items column that I'm trying to solve.
Some monsters have different number of drop items dropped after battle and I want to save them in the database, somehow.
Also, there is a table called, 'items', that has all the information about the items used in my game.
The drop_items column needs to be referenced from this 'items' table via item_ID.
So that's how I came up with trying to save an array list of drop items in the monster table.
If the above method is not really a good choice, can I have some other suggestions?
You should use a third table that links the monsters and the items. This table will just contain mon_Id and item_ID.
With this table, a monster can have several items and an item several owners.
mon_ID1 item_ID1 mon_ID1 item_ID2 mon_ID1 item_ID3 mon_ID2 item_ID1 mon_ID3 item_ID4 mon_ID4 item_ID5
