Random choose name from variable

[iStopcontact]

Hello guys!

In my skript i have added a code that when a player joines the server, it gets added to a variable

add player to {murderlist::*}

But now i want to select a random name out of that variable.

For example:
There are 3 players in the server: Player1, Player2 and Player3

Now i want to chose 1 of them with a command.

All 3 of them are in the variable {murderlist::*}

So how can i make the skript randomly choose one

Use the element of expression for it.

set {_var} to random element out of {murderlist::*}

is it also possible to have the random chosen name in the variable {testvar:%choosenname%}

Alright lets see if i get it:

We have two names: xUndefined and iStopcontact

You want a random one, lets say xUndefined

And you want to create a variable called {testvar::xUndefined} that contains xUndefined?

set {_var} to random element out of {murderlist::*}
set {testvar::%{_var}%} to {_var}

Yess thanks! @xUndefined
[doublepost=1493026255,1493024251][/doublepost]But now i have one more question, i have 2 variables for example: {var1} and {var2}

How can i make sure that for those 2 variables not the same person gets chosen

Using while.

set {_var} to random element out of {murderlist::*}
set {testvar::%{_var}%} to {_var}
set {_var2} to random element out of {murderlist::*}
while {_var2} is {_var}:
    set {_var2} to random element out of {murderlist::*}
set {testvar::%{_var2}%} to {_var2}
stop

You should build a failsafe in case you only have 1 player in {murderlist::*}, because if that's the case it will repeat indefinitely. Something like if size of {murderlist::*} is 1
