What does mean "the process" in "The sequence of random numbers are shared across the entire process" in Notes
What does mean "the process" in "The sequence of random numbers are shared across the entire process" in Notes. Should one expect it is SIM, object or script "wide" ?

Known Issues

1.13.3 specifying mag < 0 always returns 0.

ummm thats not good. I was rather fond of the old method. Why not use the copysign function found in "math.h" after stripping the sign to put it back on? (C99 revisions of glibc will support it aka, won't be in windows but will be in any recent version of linux GCC). Something like:
include <math.h>

float llFrand(float range)
{
    return copysign(new_method(fabsf(range), range);
}
