Template documentationDescription[edit]
This template is used to generate random numbers in a relatively short time.
Usage[edit]
Type {{RNG}} on the page to assume a seed of 0 and a limit of 100.
NOTE: Setting a limit value to something greater than 1 000 000 WILL have an effect on the randomness of the result. Use two {{RNG}} templates instead.
{{RNG
|seed=(number) -->Makes RNGs with different seeds unique to each other.
|limit=(number) -->Restricts the RNG to produce only numbers from 1 to limit.
}}
Example:
{{RNG
|seed=1234
|limit=5000}}
results in: -4456
