RandomBetween( <Minimum Integer> , <Maximum Integer> )
Generates a random integer between minimum and maximum (inclusive).
Example: RandomBetween(0, 10) yields a number between 0 and 10 (inclusive)
RandomBetween( <Minimum Integer> , <Maximum Integer> , <Boolean Fixed> )
If Boolean Fixed = "true", it generates a random integer between minimum and maximum (inclusive), which is updated just once (when file is loaded and also on undo/redo).
Example: RandomBetween(0, 10, true) yields a number between 0 and 10 (inclusive)
