How to make Random Integer actually Random?

[Jackal]

Okay, I have a trigger that calls a random integer. The problem is it is always the same pattern of random integers. EG

Set RandQuizInt = (Random integer number between 1 and 10)

Ingame it will always go 7 -> 4 -> 9 -> 2 etc all the time.

How do I make it properly random so that the same integers aren't always called up in the same sequence all the time?

there is a setting to use fixed random seed that is checked by default
you need to uncheck it

file - preferences - test map use fixed random seed (uncheck)

Do I get a clue as to where this setting may be in the World Editor? :<

Thanks, but for some odd reason I still get the same problem even with Use Fixed Random Seed unchecked.

Is this because I'm using Test Map in WE rather than loading the map from Warcraft III?

im not sure, try saving and restarting WE.
if that doesnt work then idk

Try the map online. Maybe it's because it's Single Player 0.o

Yeah, I've found that it seems like the random order is fixed when testing from WE regardless of that setting. :nuts:

Just start a custom game in WC3 and pick the map and you'll see it actually be random.
