Also, I got a very similar answer from Dan Ebberts, in case anyone else is interested:

segDur = 1;
minVal = 0;
maxVal = 100;
seg = Math.floor(time/segDur);
seedRandom(seg,true);
curVal = random(minVal,maxVal)
seedRandom(seg-1,true);
prevVal = random(minVal,maxVal);
t = time%segDur;
ease(t,0,segDur/2,prevVal,curVal)

Thanks people!!!

Thanks for that Filip.
That kinda works.
I don’t really need the begin/endTime though.
Not sure how that impacts performance. should I try and remove it from logic or just set the values to suit?

Basically similar to the code below, but with an animation between values (not just jumping/snapping from one to another) :

holdTime = .5; //time to hold each position (seconds) seed = Math.floor(time/holdTime); seedRandom(seed,true); random(10, 100);
OR
posterizeTime(2); random(10, 100)

Thank you for taking the trouble to build this self explanatory sample project. Pretty detailed and neat too.

Admittedly I was being skimpy with my precomps and had the propeller precomp INSIDE the plane body rotation animation precomp, and this was actually my master precomp, with the time remap.
That setup does not work.

You’ve just made my day!

Thanks for being such a star!!! really mean it!

Thanks for your prompt reply, unfortunately I did a poor job explaining and did not mentioned that the tilting is a frame-by-frame hand drawing, not a transform property I could control with sliders, hence the use of time remap.

So in my case, I don’t see how master properties would do the trick?

Or am I missing something here? (totally possible)

Thanks!
