This is exactly what I needed, huge help. Thanks mate.

Very cool! Thanks for answering. I can program a little bit, so I think I went in expecting to set and use variables very easy, but it's not looking so inuitive when I'm getting down to business in Icarus. My issue is that I do not understand how to set a variable and then use it for setting the angle or in the rotate event. If you have a Discord I can reach you on I would like to ask a few more questions about it when you have time. Edit: Sorry, I went to get breakfast and had a moment of clarity I think. I'm guessing that you can't make a Variable that stores a random value that you then use as a vector. I'm guessing it really is if-statements, and some get-set shenanigans like SET_ANGLE depending on If statements being cycled through from that Random number variable. But what I would like to learn more about is how you set those variables, and what they work with. Cause I was doing it wrong and thinking I could use a variable where I want, that's obviously wrong. If you could write a little more about this later or give an example with a screenshot, then you are my hero and I won't bother you anymore lol. I read the manual, but without a visual to go with it, I just can't put together how it works compared to just writing in IDE or something that Variable = ThisThing and then it just works and you can call on it for anything. In Icarus it feels like there's -one- right way to use it. I understood the Declare Event and Set can do stuff, but understanding the panel itself is giving me some trouble.

I saw this video on Youtube from Tx606 . Where he's showing off an icarus script that let's him spin an md3 bottle and it'll stop on a random angle and it seems to work. But I've been incabable of reproducing it, so now I'm puzzled just how he did it exactly, and whether or not there's any Icarus geniuses around here on the Forum who dare to imagine how he might have accomplished it. I thought Icarus Expressions might be how, but that just throws an error and does not function the way I was expecting expr to work. I can use Icarus for other things just fine, but I have to know whether or not this is some kind of state machine or something lol. As far as I can tell this has never been released anywhere to look at unfortunately. Modding gods of the JKA community I call upon you all for Help lol
