rand() problems
2001-07-06, 5:18 PM #1
first time using rand(), requested cog by spiral:

Code: 
symbols

message	startup
message	timer
message	pulse

thing	soundlocation=

sound	thundersound=

flex	volume=
flex	mindistance=
flex	maxdistance=

flex	random		local

end

code

startup:

  random = Rand() * 30;
  SetPulse(0.1);

 return;

timer:

  if(GetSenderID() == 5678)
  {
   PlaySoundPos(thundersound, GetThingPos(soundlocation), volume, mindistance, maxdistance, 0x40);
   random = Rand() * 30;
   SetPulse(0.1);
  }

 return;

pulse:

  if(random < 10)
  {
   random = Rand() * 30;
  }

  else
  if(random >= 10)
  {
   SetTimerEx(random, 5678, 0, 0);
   SetPulse(0.0);
  }

 return;

end


Thanks to Greven who helped out with the multiply-by-30 deal.. it took me a few minutes to understand how to use rand effectively - I don't think my brain functions well late at night.

Edit: Had outdated version posted..
