Random speed/depth

fxn · 02-09-08, 08:17 AM

Hi, just a quick question, I've obviously missed it somewhere in the manual - how do you set an objects speed and/or depth to a random value in the mission editor? Say I want to add a sub in a random starting box but also want his speed to be anywhere between 5 and 10 knots and its depth between 500 and 1000ft.

I'm still learning DW and have found that designing your own missions is the easiest way to learn the simulation - you can easily scale the difficulty depending on your (percieved) skill level of a platform. With this in mind I can create objects that start in random places and have a random box tactic but to offer a more challenging scenario I don't want to know an objects depth and speed. Any help would be appreciated.
