Random hero pick trigger problem

[tommerbob]

I got two triggers that are not working properly. They are for randomly selecting a hero for the players. A hero is selected, but the problem with the first trigger is that it always selects the same hero.

The second trigger is for players to repick a random hero. Again, it works, but it always repicks into the same hero.

I have a total of 14 heroes to be selected, yet both triggers always select the same heroes. Any ideas? Here's triggers:

                Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Random 1 units from (Units in Hero pick <gen> matching ((Point-value of (Unit-type of (Matching unit))) Equal to RandomPickInteger))) and do (Actions)

Did you do...
File (Menu) -> Preferences (Menu option) -> Test Map (Tab) -> Uncheck "Use Fixed Random Seed" (Option) -> Ok (Button)
?

If not, there's your problem.

It's a pretty common mistake. If you ask me, that option should be off by default. -_-
