Add a boolean "random" choice

AM trying to create a glitch effect and am having to create values and then have the Bool state look at them, would rather have a flip a coin style choice in the "set a value" screen


EDIT by Pfeil: Implemented.

I'm not sure any coding has a randomise boolean option but you can simply randomise an integer of 0 and 1 which is essentially what a boolean is.

[Malic]

Yes, but then you have it randomize, and then you have to reference the variable, then do the thing.  If you need 5 different coin flips for 5 different things, and that is three new lines mininum per thing, that is already 15 extra lines that I would rather not have to put in.

Am looking more for a reason to reduce the amount of lines needed so I can just call random on a single line.

Plugin that I am using requires that it be a Boolean operation, and I would rather not have to convert for every time.

[Pfeil]

Behind the scenes it'd require conversion anyway, you can't generate a random Boolean value directly.

You could do the same thing VoiceAttack would need to, in an inline function:

Code: [Select]

using System;

public class VAInline
{
public void main()
{
Random r = new Random();
VA.SetBoolean("~random", r.Next(2) == 0);
}
}

I was working in that screen tonight, so, I popped it in.  Be on the lookout for this in the next beta.


Only because I like you, Malic



Edit - of course, at the rate that the current beta is going, that could be soon - or it could be in 3 years o_O

Thank you Gary <3

Will be on the lookout!
