Random Integer from (-1.0 -> +1.0)

@Chazrox And when you compile, is the focus on the script? meaning not "(detached)". This happens when you edit another script at the same time, so the modifications aren't compiled.
I find myself being tricked a lot by this everyday... "why the heck this isn't working... Oh ok... silly me..."

@Chazrox Don't use var for variables except when you have no other choice

I got it to work. I moved it to main script and it worked outside of the namespace. literlaly copy/pasted it out and it worked there. I put it back into the function and made randomFloat a local and it worked.

Sometimes I dont even understand how things are fixed but they get fixed.

@d-healey sorry that pic was cut off. They're const vars for sure. I remember you teaching that in the tutorial.

More than just helping me fix the problem. I always appreciate the logic! You guys are the best!

you mean am I compiling while on the main script?

I havent seen that "detached' yet. My namespaces are local (external scripts) to the project. Would that apply to this situation?

If im working within a namespace i'll usually do both for good measure...atleast I think thats good measure. lol.

@Chazrox detached appears when you have more than one script in the module list. If you click in the module list to modify another script, or show its network for instance, this detaches the other scripts currently being edited. So if when you make a change, it's not compiled until you "re-attach" the script from the module's list and re-compile.

@ustk hmm...I never noticed that in my project yet. I'll keep that in mind. Sometimes a bunch of stuff will stop working and just start working again, I suspect thats whats happening but I just havent seen that message yet. Thanks!

@ustk 2 weeks later this happens and I remembered this post! Thanks for this again!
