Random Sequence player

Random Sequence Player Properties

Supported properties

• Settings

  • Full support for Sequence and Chance to Play

  • Min Loop Count and Max Loop Count will be evaluated and a fixed loop count will be chosen by crowd ABP compiler (within ranges specified), but will not be selected dynamically when sequence is chosen

  • Similar to loop count, Min / Max Play Rate are read and a value is fixed at compile time within the bounds

  • Blend In and Shuffle Mode are not supported

• Relevancy
• Functions
• Tag

Behavior Divergence

The crowd animation system is not guaranteed to select the same random sequence as its non-crowd counterpart. Random number generation for both systems is different and sequences chosen between the two may diverge.
