Truly Random Events [creating a building at random point]

[H.o.t.Carl]

Ok so basically I'm working on a map, and what I want to do, is at the game creation create a particular building for each player at a random point on the map. The simple way would be to place one for every player in a random point in the playable map area, but that places them in the same place on every game creation, though appearing to be random at first glance. I'm looking for a way to make it truly random where the player start points are placed

That's just a thing with the world editor, Go to File -> Preferences -> Test Map, and uncheck the box that says "Use Fixed Random Seed" to turn it off.

Also, if you create the building with cinematic mode turned on, it de-randoms it 'for consistency' in cinematics. If that's the case, add this to your trigger:

• Set X = (Random integer number between -1000000000 and 1000000000)
• Cinematic - Turn cinematic mode On for (All players)
• Custom script: call SetRandomSeed( udg_X )

(X is an integer variable btw)

More than I was hoping for, perfect. Thanks Bob!
