So what I have is this: two numbers with percentages attached to them.

1 = 30%
2 = 70%

I need to have 1 appear 30% of the time and 2 to appear 70% of the time.. I am thinking I need a third number? Or an amount of times it has to run through and then take an average or something? I don't know how to do it so I am asking for help! Haha, thanks.

Randomly generate a number 0 through 9

If randnum < 3 then return 1
if randnum >= 3 then return 2

Thanks Lea, that's easy enough.

So.. What if the percentages aren't a static variable? Will this method still work?

I do something like :



Where .Chance = whatever % you want.
