Thanks.
Are you modifying the time on the layers in any way? Using the patch
in non perlin mode is the legacy mode, only exists for backwards
compatibility. It doesn't do well in iterators, or any situation where
you have externalized the timebase.
For those who write your own plugins, here's what to watch out for:
There is an ivar which tracks the state from frame to frame in the old
random algorithm. When the time passed a threshold, the ivar is
updated. But if the patch tim is negative or modified multiple times
per frame inside an iterator, that can get really messed up. Now
there is a lookup function and Random using perlin is little more than
the Noise patch where x is tied to time.
