RTFM ;-) The Switch Controller can be combined with a suitable variable (N).
Just define the variable to have the values 0,1,2 for the relevant percentage of the time. I think this was discussed on this list a few months ago. Basic procedure: r=random integer, 1-100 N=0 if 0 < r <= 75 N=1 if 75 < r <= 95 N=2 if 95 < r This can be done in a JavaScript or BeanShell function. S.
