So I have a math.random variable and it should print values between 0.5, 0.6, etc. but it only prints 0 and 1. Here's my code:
local size = math.random(0.5, 1)
print(size)
Edit: I figured it out. So apparently, math.random rounds numbers. So I just did math.random(5, 10) / 10, and that worked.
math.random only returns integers, if you want to have decimals then I suggest:
local random = Random.new()
local random_integer = random:NextInteger(1, 10)
local random_number = random:NextNumber(1, 10)
print(random_integer) -- without decimals (6)
print(random_number) -- with decimals (6.1)
This discussion is preserved as it was. New answers, comments, and votes are closed.

Not all the time. You see, math.random() only return decimals when it is not filled (meaning 0 and 1 are the parameters). It will only return integers if the difference between the two parameters are more than one.
What do you mean by that?
