Use

while true do
wait(some second so the game wont broke bc generate to fast)

print(math.random(number min, number max))

end ```

Yes but it’s work only with print if you don’t use print it doesn’t work

#6

Could you not just do:

function generate_random_number(min : number, max : number)
local seed = Random.new();

local number = seed:NextInteger(min, max);

return number;
end;

local random_number = generate_random_number(1, 9);
print("Generated random number: " .. tostring(random_number));

Hope this helps. Sorry about markdown, done this on a mobile device.

Try removing return randomNumber from the bottom of the loop.

Returning will break the loop.
