How do I randomize between 2 interger within a variable

this is what i currently have and it's obviously wrong

Not sure I understand you correct. But a variable can only have one value at the time. But if what you mean is that you want this to be either 1 or 2. Then you have to use int(random(2)+1) or you can do choose(1,2) I think, I normally use the first one, due to old habit.

both work quite well thanks =]

Just a heads up for informatino.

Random generates a float number between X and Y. This includes x.x and y.y. The number always creates a decimal value. So

Random 1,2

1.000000 to 1.9999999

What nimos does is generate a float value of 0.0 to 1.9, then adds + 1 for a solid 1.0 to 2.9.. then uses the int to truncate the decimal value off.

I was advised to use choose() in preference to random() as the choose() is slightly quicker -obviously this depends on the circumstances. In this case I would use "Choose(1,2)".
