    Hey

    Quick expression question

    I’m trying to create an expression which mimics the strobe effect. The reason for this is that it doesn’t seem possible to apply the strobe effect to a light (unless I’m missing a trick?).

    In essence what I think I’m after is something I can apply to the light’s intensity property which will deliver a value of either 0 or 100 randomly over time.

    Unfortunately this is beyond my limited expressions knowledge

    Any help appreciated

    100*Math.round(random()) or 100*Math.round(gaussRandom())
