Is there a way to use the setplayerskin to set a random skin ID of a set of ID's. What I want is on my duty system is sets Police Officers currently with skin 280. But it isn't very RP to have every officer look the same... so is there a way to have it choose one of six skins for each person.

Here's what I mean the code might look like (Obviosly this isn't it... thats what I'm asking for):
RandomSetPlayerSkin(playerid, 265,266,267,280,281,282);


Please help with this hopefully simple question.
Thanks: jakejohnsonusa

pawn Код:

switch(random(6))
{
    case 0: SetPlayerSkin(playerid, 265);
    case 1: SetPlayerSkin(playerid, 266);
    case 2: SetPlayerSkin(playerid, 267);
    case 3: SetPlayerSkin(playerid, 280);
    case 4: SetPlayerSkin(playerid, 281);
    case 5: SetPlayerSkin(playerid, 282);
}

Thanks so much +1 Rep. I will test it now to see if it works

Wait what EXACTLY should I write instead of SetPlayerSkin(playerid, 265) ?
Do I replace it completely with what you put, or do I still include the SetPlayerSkin text?

Please help with this stupid question,

Anyone know? Please... How exactly should I write this? Shouldn't I still have somthing about playerskin in there?

Heres what you need to do

pawn Код:

new rand = random(6)//change it to the number of skins you want
switch(rand)
{
    case 0: SetPlayerSkin(playerid, 265);
    case 1: SetPlayerSkin(playerid, 266);
    case 2: SetPlayerSkin(playerid, 267);
    case 3: SetPlayerSkin(playerid, 280);
    case 4: SetPlayerSkin(playerid, 281);
    case 5: SetPlayerSkin(playerid, 282);
}

What this does is create a variable and generates a pseudo-random number out of it.
If the number is 0 skin 265 is applied and so on..

I don't understand your current question.. There is only one function that can set a player's skin and that is SetPlayerSkin(playerid, skinid). The Random concept means: Let's take 6 numbers from 0 to 5 and chooose a random number between those. If 0 is chosen, than SetPlayerSkin(playerid, skinid), if 1 is chosen, set it to another skin etc.

EDIT: If you still don't understand tell me exactly what you don't understand or we won't understand you either.

This is exactly what I meant thanks! It was hard to word right... +1 REP thanks!

OR If you want it random through out all skins

PHP код:

new srand =random(299); //Max skin is 299
SetPlayerSkin(playerid, srand);
