how would I use math.random to make a randomizer?
Does anyone know how to make a randomizer?
Like, say for example, when a new server exists, a part can be either red, orange, or yellow.
Maybe have to where a script makes a NumberValue will change between 1 and 3. And when I figure that out I want to figure out how to make it like:
if script.Parent.Value.Value=1 then
script.Parent.Transparency=1
if script.Parent.Value.Value=2 then
script.Parent.Transparency=0.5
if script.Parent.Value.Value=3 then
script.Parent.Transparency=0
end
Please help me.
Spoiler Alert,
On part of the Roblox game Isolator, in one of the rooms has a computer that says either Left or Right. I want to make something similar to that.

Math.random you can use different ways. One of those ways, is to generate a number through another number. But you might notice, if you use it more than once in the same game/server, it will keep generating the same number. So you can use math.randomseed to make the numbers generate more random each time. Now it should be different every time.
This would be a part touched event.
math.randomseed(tick()) --Seeds the random number function by your local time.
debounce = false
local number = (math.random(1,3))
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function()
if debounce == false then
if number == 1 then
script.Parent.Transparency=1
elseif number == 2 then
script.Parent.Transparency=0.5
elseif number == 3 then
script.Parent.Transparency=0
end
debounce = true
wait (2) --Time you want before the next player can touch to change it
debounce = false
end
end)
This would be a part clicked event
math.randomseed(tick()) --Seeds the random number function by your local time.
local number = (math.random(1,3))
debounce = false
script.Parent.MouseClick:Connect(function()
if debounce = false then
if number == 1 then
script.Parent.Transparency=1
elseif number == 2 then
script.Parent.Transparency=0.5
elseif number == 3 then
script.Parent.Transparency=0
end
debounce = true
wait(2) --Time you want before the next player can click to change it
debounce = false
end
end)
