I'm trying to make a capsule machine similar to the trophies in Smash Bros: Melee where the more coins you pay, the better the chance you'll get a trophy that you don't already have.
So basically it'll be like:
You own:
Trophy 1
Trophy 2
Trophy 3
You want:
Trophy 4
And if you insert one coin, you have a 25% chance of getting Trophy 4, however if you insert 2 coins you have a 50% chance and so on. But i've no idea how to make this happen, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Perhaps have each coin increase the number of random sweeps through the trophy list?
1 coin = Random Trophy selected
2 coins = 2 random trophies selected, keep the one you don't have (Flag trophies you own to ON, and not to OFF)
3 coins = 4 random trophies selected, etc etc
Now I haven't done the maths, but depending on how many in total you have, play with the ratios and things.
But basically, pick a random, and the more coins you have the more rolls at random you get. You then tell the program to keep the UNFLAGGED option.
Hope that helped. I am dubious though. Someone with more knowledge and a greater inclination to do the maths will no doubt trump me.
