How do I make sleep random?

[lolp1]

I can't seem to find out how to randomize sleep between 4 mintues, and 4 1/2 mintues. Any help ?

Sleep(Random(240000, 270000, 1))

Welcome, some simple math would have fixed it for you as well.

_SleepRandom(4, 4.5)

Func _SleepRandom($nMin1, $nMin2)
    Return Sleep(Random((Number($nMin1) * 60) * 1000, (Number($nMin2) * 60) * 1000, 1))
EndFunc

Edit:

Oops, I used $nMin1 for both.

couldn't you also assign a random variable and use that in the sleep command?

like sleep($var1) and then have the variable be a random number? Just wondering, might be more useful to make a variable if the statement is being used more than once in the program.

Your suggestion is no different than what I presented.

Smoke_N's is just more refined then going

_SleepRandom(4, 4.5)

Func _SleepRandom($nMin1, $nMin2)
    $var1 = Random((Number($nMin1) * 60) * 1000, (Number($nMin2) * 60) * 1000, 1)
    Return Sleep($var1)
EndFunc
