World::rand is based on the seed of the save, so if you use that in e.g. world-gen, you'll get the same results every tim you generate a world. If you make a new instance of Random, it will generate different numbers everytime, even if you use the same seed.

 

So use the World::rand for consistency among things.

 

I stand corrected.

No, it is not.

 

World::rand is just a convenient source of random numbers. It is not tied to the seed.

I always thought that World::rand was tied to the seed, and I never bothered to look into it as it would make sense. And I also just looked, and the Random used for world generation is a completely different one, which is made from the seed.
