    Just tinkering - I know this isnt correct - but any feedback appreciated

    Trying to get a random sort mograph clones
    by shuffling the clone array

    I can randomise or reverse on a particular frame
    but not keep the randomisation

    if (frame >= 70) :  random.shuffle(marr)
    constantly shuffles - not wanted

    if (frame == 70) :  random.shuffle(marr)
    shuffles on that one frame then resets to original order on 71 - not wanted

    any ideas

    import c4d
from c4d.modules import  mograph as mo
import  math, random
#Welcome to the world of Python
  
def main() :
    md = mo.GeGetMoData(op)
    if md==None: return False
    
    cnt = md.GetCount()
    marr = md.GetArray(c4d.MODATA_MATRIX)
    fall = md.GetFalloffs()
  
    #marr.reverse() #just reverse
    #marr.append(marr.pop(0))    #another reverse
  
    
    frame = doc.GetTime().GetFrame(doc.GetFps()) 
  
    if (frame >= 70) :  random.shuffle(marr) 
    for i in reversed(xrange(0, cnt)) :
        marr _.off = marr _.off__
 _ _        #if (i == 4) :  marr.reverse() # experimen__
 _ _    md.SetArray(c4d.MODATA_MATRIX, marr, True)__
 _ _    return True__

    Brilliant - thanks douwe

    changed third to last line

    marr (square bracket)i (square bracket).off _  = marr ._ (square bracket) _ i_ (square bracket).off

    Ye, bad things happen when one forgets to use the correct BBcode. fixed.

    Glad to help you out,
    although it feels like cheating every time i resort to the NameError trick.

    Yup same post as you spotted douwe

    I started with the thought about shuffling the array - but then I got stuck on the code

    Will post the whole thing back there included scene file (as we can't do that here)

    The only issue I've found (I guess its to do with the global setting) if you change clone numbers or setup then you have to recompile

    Anyone have any suggestions of how to get over having to reset the effector,

    every time the clone count and or type gets changed?
