Random

Allows you to apply a random number generator to the MASH network.

Random Node

Position X, Position Y, Position Z

Determines which of the network's translate attributes are randomized. The value range is from the negative to the positive of the value entered.

Rotation X, Rotation Y, Rotation Z

Determines which of the network's rotate attributes are randomized. The value range is from the negative to the positive of the value entered.

Scale X, Scale Y, Scale Z

Determines which of the network's scale attributes are randomized. The value range is from the negative to the positive of the value entered.

Absolute Scale

Ensures all scale values are positive.

Random Seed

Sets the randomization for the generator.

Uniform Scale

Scales points equally in all axes (Scale X value is used).

Normalize Random

Normalizes the random number to a value between 0 and 1.

Transformation Space

Determines whether to transform points relative to their shared World space or their individual Local spaces.

Strength

Strength

Fades the node's effect for all the objects at the same time.

Random Strength

Smoothly fades the node's effect on all the objects in a random order.

Step Strength

Turns the node's effect off one object at a time.

Strength Map

Determines the input file (2D texture, animated texture, etc) that controls the node's effect.

Map Projection Axis

Determines the axis along which the Strength Map is projected.

Map Helper

Displays the object being used to interactively place the Strength Map in the scene. You can right-click the field to create a new helper object (a plane) if none exists. You can also middle-drag a mesh into this field or right-click to connect a selected mesh. If a mesh is already connected, you can also right-click to break its connection or show it in the Outliner.

Note: For the best results, assign the same texture to both the Strength Map and the Map Helper (this automatically happens when creating a new helper object).

Whole Numbers

Forces output values to be whole numbers.

Normalise Random

Normalizes all random numbers so that they fall within the 0-1 range in world units. Note that you can increase Strength to a value greater than 1.0 to offset this.

Individual Axis Controls

Allows you to customize the minimum and maximum values output on a per axis basis. The node only uses them when their value is not 0.
