how to create a random time intervall?

[dr_schulle]

hi,

at first, i'm german so sry for my bad english

 

i need to create a simple macro with a random time intervall.

now my macro looks like this:

 

<TEXTTYPE:<2><DELAY:1><TEXTTYPE:<3>

 

in this macro the delay is always 1 second.

 

 

but i need a random Delay between 1 and 10 seconds. how to do this?

Don't apologize for your English. It is a lot better than my German!

 

It will not be truly random, but you could use the TIME command (it is under TEXT), put the time into a variable, and use the rightmost digit of seconds as your delay. Change the digit to an integer (Nx) variable, and use that integer in the Wait Time Elapse command.

Use the Variable Set Integer %N1% with a Random Number command. However, since this command returns a random value between 0 and the maximum number entered you will need to add one to it. Then use that value in the Delay command. Like this:

Variable Set Integer %N1% with a Random Number
Variable Modify Integer: Inc (%N1%)
Delay %N1% Seconds

Copy and paste this into your macro:

<IVAR2:01:06:9><NMVAR:08:01:0:0000001:0:0000000><DELAY:%N1%>

Right you are, Kevin. I should have checked the Help screens!
