[JASS] Random Area Max?

[CrueIIntentions]

I am stumped with this:

local real randx = x+GetRandomReal(x,500)*Cos(GetRandomReal(bj_PI,2*bj_PI)) 
local real randy = y+GetRandomReal(y,500)*Sin(GetRandomReal(bj_PI,2*bj_PI))

I want to have it a max AoE of 500 around the caster(x/y being the caster). It seems that it shoots all across the map. Where am I going wrong?

GetRandomReal(x, 500) should be GetRandomReal(0, 500)
In addition to this, you use GetRandomReal(bj_PI, 2*bj_PI) twice, thus generating different angles for your X and your Y coordinate. In your case, since it's supposed to be random anyway, it probably won't matter but you should probably use only 1 angle.

local real angle = GetRandomReal(bj_PI, 2 * bj_PI)
local real distance = GetRandomReal(0, 500)
local real randx = x + distance * Cos(angle)
local real randy = y + distance * Sin(angle)

GetRandomReal(bj_PI, 2 * bj_PI)

Should be

GetRandomReal(0.00, 2 * bj_PI)

 

[CrueIIntentions]

GetRandomReal(bj_PI, 2 * bj_PI)

Should be

GetRandomReal(0.00, 2 * bj_PI)

Curiousity makes me ask why?

0 radians is 0 degrees, 2 * PI is 360 degrees.

So...

90 degrees is PI/2, 270 degrees is PI * 1.5.

Your ranges need to be from 0.00 to 2 * bj_PI.
