UKismetMathLibrary::RandomFloatInRange
#include "Kismet/KismetMathLibrary.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: staticUFUNCTIONBlueprintPure
Description
Returns a random float uniformly distributed between Min and Max. Both endpoints are inclusive.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • Marked NotBlueprintThreadSafe — do not call from async Blueprint nodes or worker threads; it shares global state with the game thread random stream.
- • If Min > Max the function still returns a value (it will be in [Max, Min]), but this is a logic error that can produce silent bugs in damage or animation systems — ensure Min <= Max at the call site.
