    So I'm trying to make a script that makes zombies go to random corners and then one of these corners will be destroyed. I have everything done except I don't know how to get a 1/4th of the entities in a list, and how to get a random corner. Could anyone help? Thanks! :emoji_slight_smile:

    set {_list::*} to "helo1", "helo2" and "helo3"
    broadcast "%{_list::3}%" #should broadcast hello3

    Not exactly what I'm asking for, the list has 250 entities

    set {_value1} to a random element out of {_list::*}
    remove {_value1} from {_list::*}
    set {_value2} to a random element out of {_list::*}
    remove {_value2} from {_list::*}

    That only gets one element. I don't think you read my post correctly, I'm trying to get a quarter of the list

    Code (Text):
    1.  
    2. for each entity in {zombielist::*}
    3.     teleport loop-entity to a random location out of {corners::*}
    4. #some function to destroy all zombie entities near one corner to destroy
    5. #
    this will kill on average 25%, if you want to always end up with exactly 75% of zombies, you will have to add them to a list and ensure that no more than 25% of i is teleported to each corner.
    remember then to add a ceil() to ensure you have room for amounts that don't divide evenly in 4
