Returning Random Letter [HELP!!]

[speedshooter 1]

_letters = ["A","B","C","D","E","F","G","H","I","J","K","L","M","N","O","P","Q","R","S","T","U","V","W","X","Y","Z"]; 
_l1 = random(_letters);
_l2 = random(_letters);
_l3 = random(_letters);
_l4 = random(_letters);

Place a functions module on the map.

waituntil {!IsNil "Bis_Fnc_Init"}; 
_RandomLetter = ["A","B","C","D","E","F","G","H","I","J","K","L","M","N","O","P","Q","R","S","T","U","V","W","X","Y","Z"] call Bis_Fnc_SelectRandom;
Hint Format ["%1",_RandomLetter];

Fixed: Added the letters to strings. Also, apparently the bis random function isn't reliable to ever pick the first or last element. So you can just use those as place holders.

I would avoid using BIS_fnc_selectRandom until this is addressed.

_letters = ["A","B","C","D","E","F","G","H","I","J","K","L","M","N","O","P","Q","R","S","T","U","V","W","X","Y","Z"]; 
_letter = _letters select (floor count _letters);

_letters = ["A","B","C","D","E","F","G","H","I","J","K","L","M","N","O","P","Q","R","S","T","U","V","W","X","Y","Z"]; 
_letter = _letters select (floor count _letters);
_l1 = _letter;
_l2 = _letter;
_l3 = _letter;
_l4 = _letter;
_n1 = ceil(random 9) call ISSE_str_IntToStr;
_n2 = ceil(random 9) call ISSE_str_IntToStr;
_n3 = ceil(random 9) call ISSE_str_IntToStr;
_PLetters = _l1 + _l2 + _l3 + _l4;
_PNumbers = _n1 + _n2 + _n3;
_Plate = _PLetters + PNumbers;

newVehicle setVariable ["Licence", _Plate, true];

plates.sqf

_type = _this select 0;
_type2 = typeOf _type;

hintSilent parseText format["<t valign='middle' underline='1' color='#ff0000'>VEHICLE-REGISTRATION</t><br/><br/><t valign='middle' color='#15c73b'>Plate Number: %2<br/>Type: %1",_type2,_type getVariable "Licence",_businfo];

This is returning "scalar" in the hint

You could try this. idk if it would work...

_letters = ["A","B","C","D","E","F","G","H","I","J","K","L","M","N","O","P","Q","R","S","T","U","V","W","X","Y","Z"];
_letter = _letters select (floor count _letters); 
_l1 = _letter; 
_l2 = _letter; 
_l3 = _letter;
_l4 = _letter;
_n1 = ceil(random 9) call ISSE_str_IntToStr;
_n2 = ceil(random 9) call ISSE_str_IntToStr;
_n3 = ceil(random 9) call ISSE_str_IntToStr;
_PLetters = [];
_PNumbers = [];
_PLetters = _PLetters + _l1 + _l2 + _l3 + _l4; 
_PNumbers = _PNumbers + _n1 + _n2 + _n3; 
_Plate = _PLetters + PNumbers;

Thanks!

_letters = ["A","B","C","D","E","F","G","H","I","J","K","L","M","N","O","P","Q","R","S","T","U","V","W","X","Y","Z"];

_letter = _letters select (floor count _letters);

_l1 = _letter;

_l2 = _letter;

_l3 = _letter;

_l4 = _letter;

_n1 = ceil(random 9) call ISSE_str_IntToStr;

_n2 = ceil(random 9) call ISSE_str_IntToStr;

_n3 = ceil(random 9) call ISSE_str_IntToStr;

_PLetters = [];

_PNumbers = [];

_PLetters = _PLetters + _l1 + _l2 + _l3 + _l4;

_PNumbers = _PNumbers + _n1 + _n2 + _n3;

_Plate = _PLetters + PNumbers;

remember to put a 'random' in there.

_letter = _letters select floor(random(count _letters));
