Put this in your main script file:


Sub DoRand (MinTime, Maxtime, String)
	Dim DelayTime
	DelayTime = Int(((MaxTime-MinTime+1) * Rnd) + MinTime)
	World.DoAfter DelayTime, String
End Sub

...Then you could use that whenever you want to have a delayed send, with random time. For example:


DoRand 5,10, "say Hello"  ' Send the line at a random time between 5 and 10 seconds.
DoRand 1,5 "grat " & TargetPlayerName

Constantly proving I don't know what I am doing...
