Hi guys, long time no see! 

I had a question about modifying certain metadata, like for example a simple one like agentScale.

How can I set the scale to be random between something like 0.9 and 1.1 but without using the override per agent random tool. Essentially I want to randomize the scale (and really a lot of other things like frame rate etc) but not have it tied to overrides in modules and instead just be purely procedural similar to what we have on the localOffset module random position option. The goal is that adding new agents does not need more overrides.

I am using atoms 4.4 and likely will have to remain on this version for this project.

Thanks!

Hello Alejandro,
What you are asking is possible, but you would actually need to upgrade your Atoms version. 

We added this since 5.2:

Search for the paragraph starting "Attributes can be randomized at the module level."

Thanks,
Daniele
