don't worry man! After about 50 trials I managed to make ^^ You will need 3 triggers for this. 1 - To set the regions for the RegionArray. 2 - The most important one, creates a random number, then checks some conditions. 3 - if all the regions have already been chosen, it re-sets them, but you don't have to do that, you can add your own actions there.

• Beginning
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.01 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set RegionArray[1] = Region 000 <gen>
    • Set RegionArray[2] = Region 000 Copy <gen>
    • Set RegionArray[3] = Region 000 Copy 2 <gen>
    • Set RegionArray[4] = Region 000 Copy 3 <gen>
    • Set RegionArray[5] = Region 000 Copy 4 <gen>
    • Set RegionArray[6] = Region 000 Copy 5 <gen>
    • Set RegionArray[7] = Region 000 Copy 6 <gen>
    • Set RegionArray[8] = Region 000 Copy 7 <gen>
    • Set RegionArray[9] = Region 000 Copy 8 <gen>
    • Set RegionArray[10] = Region 000 Copy 9 <gen>
    • Set RegionArray[11] = Region 000 Copy 10 <gen>
    • Set RegionArray[12] = Region 000 Copy 11 <gen>

• Every seconds
  • Events
    • Time - Every 2.00 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set RandomNumber = (Random integer number between 1 and 12)
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • And - All (Conditions) are true
          • Conditions
            • RegionBooleanArray[RandomNumber] Equal to False
      • Then - Actions
        • Set TriggerRunTimes = 0
        • Unit - Create 1 Paladin for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of RegionArray[RandomNumber]) facing Default building facing degrees
        • Set RegionBooleanArray[RandomNumber] = True
        • Skip remaining actions
      • Else - Actions
        • Set TriggerRunTimes = (TriggerRunTimes + 1)
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • TriggerRunTimes Not equal to 13
          • Then - Actions
            • Trigger - Run (This trigger) (checking conditions)
          • Else - Actions
            • Trigger - Run Region Clash <gen> (checking conditions)

• Region Clash
  • Events
  • Conditions
    • And - All (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • RegionBooleanArray[1] Equal to True
        • RegionBooleanArray[2] Equal to True
        • RegionBooleanArray[3] Equal to True
        • RegionBooleanArray[4] Equal to True
        • RegionBooleanArray[5] Equal to True
        • RegionBooleanArray[6] Equal to True
        • RegionBooleanArray[7] Equal to True
        • RegionBooleanArray[8] Equal to True
        • RegionBooleanArray[9] Equal to True
        • RegionBooleanArray[10] Equal to True
        • RegionBooleanArray[11] Equal to True
        • RegionBooleanArray[12] Equal to True
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 12, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set RegionBooleanArray[(Integer A)] = False

There might be some leaks, I donno, I was only concentrating on making it work..

By the way, I used 12 regions to test it, but you can make as many as you want, but be sure to change all 3 triggers appropriately.

hell yeah man nice job i just tried it with 8 and it owned.....

when i tried it was only two triggers and it used integer arrays and other complicated things which i was kind of guess using.....

You can also

Set region = (Region centered at (Random point in (Playable map area)) with size (100.00, 100.00))

He is randomly picking from pre-generated regions, not picking a random spot on the map.

Well hawk900, if you would have read through the whole of the topic, including post one, then you would see that I what I did is just what he needs:

But it has to pick a region from a list and it cant pick the same one twice....

also, he said that he has already tested my system, and it work perfectly:

Unless you were saying it to bounty hunter2..
