  Slow down the Random ?

  Posted by Bartosz Pelc on January 7, 2016 at 8:31 pm

  Hi boys and girls, quick and simple (not for me) quest.
  It’s my expression:

  y=random(50,940);
  x=random(50,940);
  [x,y]

  It’s works perfectly 🙂 but every frame, i need to slow it down any ideas?

  Thank’s in advance.

  How slow do you want it? This should slow the change to once per second:

  seedRandom(Math.floor(time),true);
  y=random(50,940);
  x=random(50,940);
  [x,y]

  or, you could do it this way (5 changes per second in this example):

  posterizeTime(5);
  y=random(50,940);
  x=random(50,940);
  [x,y]

  Hmm. Most interesting: per-property posterized time!
