Nodes > Particles > Particle Random

Returns a unique, per-particle random value between Min and Max, extremely useful to get variation in the particle system.

Inputs

Name	Type	Description
Min	float	Lower bound of the random value.
Max	float	Upper bound of the random value.

Outputs

Name	Type	Description
Random	float	Generated random value

Properties

Name	Type	Description
Dimension	dropdown	Number of dimensions in the random value. Also affects Min and Max dimensions.
Seed	dropdown	The source of randomness. When set to Particle, the unique per-particle random value is consistent throughout the lifespan of the particle. When set to Unique, the unique per-particle random value updates every frame. When set to Time, the result is no longer unique per-particle, but is unique to the system, and continues to change every frame.

Generally, set this to Particle when using random during the Update stage, and set it to Unique when using random during the spawn stage for maximum variation over time.
