Name
RndSeed -- set random seed (V11.0)
Synopsis
RndSeed(seed)
Library
math

Function
This function can be used to set the seed value for the Rnd() and RndF() functions. Be careful with this function because it will not only affect the Rnd() and RndF() functions but also all other Hollywood functionality that generates random numbers, e.g. the #RANDOMEFFECT transition effect. The only random function that is unaffected by RndSeed() is RndStrong() because that uses a cryptographic randomizer that doesn't need a seed value.

By default, Hollywood uses the current monotonic system time as a seed value for its randomizer.
