Adding a random delay

[anon02]

Is there a way to create a random number between 2 numbers? i.e. between 10 and 15 or is it better to /delay 10, then have another /delay between 0 and 5?

I want to create a (somewhat) random wait time in between events, but I'm not quite sure how to do that.

Would something like this work:
/delay 10
/delay $rand(10)

Which would give you a 1 second delay, then up to another second of delay?

Thanks for the help :)

maybe try...

/delay $rand(1,10)

or

/delay $rand 1 to 10

I dont thing specifying the delay to 10 first would work because the script is going to process your /delay 10 and pause for 10 sec before moving on to your /delay $rand part.

dont know if any of the above two will work, but its worth a try

I might be wrong (still learning the in's and out's of MQ), but if the above suggestions don't work, you might want to try doing a random 1 - 10 and setting it as a var, then using that var for the delay.

Btw, please let me know if that works, still trying to get a feel for the MQ scripting language.
