Today we dine in MEL Cont.

So today I set about adding some extra functionality, mainly a way to choose wheather or not to have the amount an object moves random or not, i've got as far as the GUI and a rough IF statement, that basicly reads, IF the box is checked then print "test"; else do what your sposed to, im undecided if the code for this should check all the boxes at once, or one by one, it would probably better to break the main FOR loop down into the the three main sections (x,y and z), that way it can differinciate between the 3 different values, were as if I make the check outside the FOR loop in the form of a IF statement, i'll still have to break them appart later. probably better logic to do it seperatly.


Heres the GUI;

 

 And the code (most of this is GUI orientated);
