Way of doing random numbers that does not repeat?

[Outcast]

Do anyone know of a good way to do like 10 random numbers and make sure they are all different?

You could save each random number and if the random number generated is similar to any of the previous ones, generate a new one?

Use an array. Get a some random value save it to current cell and compare with all others. If current value is equal to value from rest of cells just try again.

Ah thanks. I made an example, maybe other finds this useful. I have one question though, it seems I need to use an dimension of 6 in the array if I want to create 5 random numbers. Why do I need to use dimension 6 and not 5?

That's because you add to the x-index before writing to it.

I've attached an updated example including another solution to the problem. I also wrapped your method into a fastloop so that the numbers are generated instantly.

Thanks By the way Popcorn, I am playing a game right now called Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet and in credits there is a thanks to a "Popcorn". Is that you? :P

No idea, but probably not since I haven't heard about that game before
