rand() help Dec. 17, 2009, 7:28 p.m.

Hi, this should be easy for most of you out there. I am using geometry to scatter popcorn kernels (I have 3) around a model of a “pile.” Anyway, I figured out how to use the scatter SOP and copy SOP to aid me in this, and also Im aware of the “switch” SOP to switch between the 3 kernels. Where I need help is: I am assuming I need to throw in the rand() expression into the input of the Switch node to vary the popcorn kernels all over the model. rand($F) will not work because this is just going to be a stationary pile of popcorn. What do I put inside of the parentheses to get that randomization? Or am I needing to throw in another node somewhere? I feel like this should be really easy. Thanks!
