random

random

Returns a random number from 0 to n

Syntax:

random(n)

Argument	Description
double n	The upper range from which the random number will be selected

Returns: double

Description:

This function will return a number between a range of 0 and your chosen upper range.

NOTE: This function will return the same value every time the game is run due to the fact that SimplexRpgEngine generates the same initial random seed every time to make debugging code a far easier task. To avoid this behavior, use randomize() at the start of your game.

Example:

double direction = random(360);

This code will return random direction from angle 0° to angle 360°.
