World#rand

Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable.  If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME.  Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice.

Wait, what exactly do you want to do?

 

Even if you use the world Random with a specified seed, it doesn't necessarily provide predictability in the rest of the game unless you use it only during world generation. In other words, if you use it later in the gameplay you won't know how many other things have called for random numbers.

 

If you want your own sequence of pseudo-random numbers with a controlled seed I personally would generate my own custom Random sequence.

Check out my tutorials here: http://jabelarminecraft.blogspot.com/

World#rand is already initialized.  Just call nextInt on it.

 

If you want your OWN seed, then create a Random in your main mod class, if you're really super desparate, you could subscribe to the world-load event and initialize that Random to the world's seed.

 

Like...what's your use-case here?

I used World.rand as suggested works perfect ! thanks

 

int chance = worldIn.rand.nextInt(100) to get a percentage

if (chance < 20)  //20%

blah blah 1

else if (chance < 40) //20%

blah blah 2

 

works perfect thanks!
