Okay, there are eight bosses that spawn @ different game intervals.
There are eight possible spawn regions, (setup in an array)

When a boss (titan) spawns it must spawn in a random region but, cannot spawn in a region that has already been "used" that game, (A region where a boss has spawned previously)

So, when a region is used it must be taken out of the array,
So by the end of the game all eight regions have been "used" but none of them used twice and the order thier used in MUST be random.


Here are the triggers im using:
Setting vars:

  • Titan Setup
    • Events
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Set Random_TitanCount = 8
      • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 8, do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • Set Random_Region[(Integer A)] = (Integer A)
      • Set TitanSpawnRegion[1] = TitanSpawn1 <gen>
      • Set TitanSpawnRegion[2] = TitanSpawn2 <gen>
      • Set TitanSpawnRegion[3] = TitanSpawn3 <gen>
      • Set TitanSpawnRegion[4] = TitanSpawn4 <gen>
      • Set TitanSpawnRegion[5] = TitanSpawn5 <gen>
      • Set TitanSpawnRegion[6] = TitanSpawn6 <gen>
      • Set TitanSpawnRegion[7] = TitanSpawn7 <gen>
      • Set TitanSpawnRegion[8] = TitanSpawn8 <gen>
      • Set TitanType[1] = Centaur (Level 1 Titan)
      • Set TitanType[2] = Harpy (Level 2 Titan)
      • Set TitanType[3] = Gorgan (Level 3 Titan)
      • Set TitanType[4] = Minotaur (Level 4 Titan)
      • Set TitanType[5] = Guardian (Level 5 Titan)
      • Set TitanType[6] = Underworld Overseer (Level 6 Titan)
      • Set TitanType[7] = Overlord (Level 7 Titan)
      • Set TitanType[8] = Hydra (Level 8 Titan)
CREATING THE TITANS:

  • Titan Creation
    • Events
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Set TitanRegionCount = (Random integer number between 1 and Random_TitanCount)
      • Game - Display to (All players) the text: (Titan Region Count = + (String(TitanRegionCount)))
      • For each (Integer TitanCreationInteger) from 1 to 8, do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • Set TitanCinPoint = (Center of TitanSpawnRegion[TitanCreationInteger])
          • Cinematic - Ping minimap for (All players) at TitanCinPoint for 4.50 seconds, using a Flashy ping of color (30.00%, 100.00%, 30.00%)

Here is a screenshot of the in-game log (ive inserted text commands to help debug it)

As you can see, Charon +erinyes spawn in the same loc in this examaple, so does Scyla + Minos,

Any ideas?
