Of course, after I eat dinner, I realize how to make that program a little more interesting by having the motes emit from a center region on the screen.

To be more interesting try having smoke originate at mouse and drifting up while spreading out left and right.
This kind of thing is kinda goofy:
Code: (Select All) var = Int(Rnd * 3) - Int(Rnd * 3)
if you want a random single at 10 +/- 5
r = 10 + rnd*10 -5
for integers at 100 +/- 10
Code: (Select All) For i = 1 To 100
r = 100 + Int(21 * Rnd) - 10 ' because INT() rounds down, int(Rnd * 1 more than max range) minus 1/2 range
Print r,
Next

It's not even remotely goofy. I didn't do that because I want the bell curve created by the two calls to rnd to make the median result more likely than the extremes. What you are showing here would create a linear distribution within the range which I didn't want.

Code: (Select All) Dim As Long a(-11 To 11)
For i = 1 To 100000

It's fun what can be done with a solid routine like circlefill and a little additional code.

You beat me to the code that demonstrates a bell curve at work. You shouldn't ever get -11 or 11 with that code however (unless rnd bumps a bit over at some point).
You can alter the distribution on the curve by changing the range of elements used.
These would all produce a score of 2 to 20 but have different looking result curves:
Code: (Select All) r1 = Int(1 + Rnd * 10) + (1 + Rnd * 10)
r2 = Int(1 + Rnd * 12) + (1 + Rnd * 8)
r3 = Int(1 + Rnd * 8) + Int(1 + Rnd * 8) + Int(Rnd * 5)
run enough times and r1 is the most pronounced curve with most results coming in the middle.
r2 will have a flatter curve than r1 with a wider range of likely results with a collapsing chance of getting the rarer results (2,3,19,and20) , and r3 should be flatter than that.

Thanks for this the first one I demo'd has been something I've sort of been wanting for long time.
Now I see the dust smoke mote connection, also might be good for sun and stars?
These new ones I will definitely check out.
+1 between this and Rotozoom you deserve at least another point from me. Two beauties in one night!

I suppose it would work fine for stars and other objects that can be illustrated with a circle. It might work for water splashing on the screen as if it was a window if you scale up some as they "hit" the screen as if it was a car window (I suppose the drip could be tracked post "impact" too).
