The VectorInCube method is a static extension method for the System.Random class, provided by the Sandbox.SandboxSystemExtensions class. It generates a random Vector3 within a cube centered at the origin with the specified extents. This method is useful for generating random positions within a defined cubic space.
To use the VectorInCube method, you need to have an instance of System.Random. You can then call this method to generate a random Vector3 within a cube of the specified size.
Parameters:
self: An instance of System.Random used to generate random numbers.extents: A float value representing half the length of the cube's side. The cube is centered at the origin, so the full side length is 2 * extents.Returns: A Vector3 representing a random point within the specified cube.
// Example usage of VectorInCube System.Random random = new System.Random(); float extents = 5.0f; Vector3 randomPoint = random.VectorInCube(extents); // randomPoint is now a Vector3 within a cube centered at the origin with side length 10 (extents * 2)
