yep, no random in TS4.
if all you need is psuedo random numbers,
try making a function with 2 prime numbers,
A and B where A > B. To make the sequence
useful, try to use a large A.
then the Nth random number is (B * N) mod A
the sequence will fill in all the possible
values from 0 to A - 1 randomly.
TS4 has barnumber function to facilitate the
needed N.
e.g. A = 11, B = 3
N result
0 0
1 3
2 6
3 9
4 1
5 4
6 7
7 10
8 2
9 5
10 8
11 0
if you need to have unpredictable result,
try feed a starting point for N.
