OvrRandom

Subclass of Ovr.OvrNode

Description

This node is used to generate random values, based on the type of variable the user needs.

By changing the OvrVariableType, the requirements to get the random value change as well.

Attributes

Note: the following attributes are added to the existing ones from the super class OvrNode

Name	Type	Description
VariableType	OvrVariableType	Type of the variable
OvrRandomType	OvrRandomType	Type of function used to generate Random value (in case of Numbers, only Between is allowed)
Min	OvrNumericVariable	Min. value of the range
Max	OvrNumericVariable	Max. value of the range
Result	OvrNumericVariable	Resulting value
QuaternionResult	OvrQuaternion	Resulting rotation value

Random Number

In order to generate a random number (OvrInt or OvrFloat), the user needs to provide the node with a maximum and minimum value. The result will be stored in a numeric variable.

Example of numerical Random

Random Vector

There are several ways to generate a new OvrVector2 or OvrVector3:

• Like for random numbers, between Min and Max Vectors;

• Inside a Unity Circle [OvrVector2] or Sphere [OvrVector3], by calculating a random Vector inside a sphere with radius 1, then scaled up using Min and Max values.

• On the surface of a Unit Sphere [OvrVector3 only], by calculating a random Vector on the surface of a sphere with radius 1, then scaled up using Min and Max values.

Attributes are very similar to those above.

Example of OvrRandom, for OvrVector3 using Between function.

Example of OvrRandom, for OvrVector3 using Inside Unit Sphere function.

Random Rotation

To generate a new Rotation (OvrQuaternion), the user can either:

• Generate a simple random Rotation;

• Generate a random Rotation with uniform distribution
