I've recently produced a model of a wind turbine, which I'm in the
process of adding to the scenery, but when they're clustered together
in groups it looks rather unnatural as they're all spinning round in
perfect synchronisation. Is it possible to introduce some random
offset to make things look a little bit more natural? If so, how?


I did something for the radio towers. they don't blink at unisson. I
introduced the <use-personality> tag but this is done only for the timed
animation.

What animation do you want to have personality ? spin, rotation ? this
must be implemented in animation.cxx


Spin.

I'd like to be able to have either a random rotational offset, just so
all the blades don't line up, or preferably a small percentage variation
in the speed.



I'm not in the know but could 'property-randomize' be used to slightly vary the spin rate?


I think it is formatted:

<command>property-randomize</command>
<property>/thepropertyyouwantouse</property>
<min>1</min>
<max>10</max>
Or something along those lines.


I'm not even sure if that is usable because it looks like it writes to the property rather than making it available for an effect (if you follow me).

Anyone in the know on the above?


If you look at the tower-medium.xml, you will have an idea on how it is made.
Jon, I will see if I can do something during the week for the spin animation.
