Random number generator with blacklisted numbers

[Bentley-Sama]

Hello everyone, I was hoping someone could help me figure out a way to make a number generator that doesn't use specific numbers. Such as a generator that won't roll 13 24 27 33 etc... Also if anyone knows of a way to make it where two random numbers generators won't end up with the same number that would be appreciated.
edit:
I appreciate the responses so far! I've solved the first step of the puzzle by using the random.choice() function. I still can't think of a way to make sure two random number generators won't end up with the same number.
An example would be if random1 = renpy.random.choice(1,2,3) rolled and got 2 then random2 = renpy.random.choice(1,2,3) couldn't also roll 2 it would instead either re-roll until it got a number that wasn't taken or somehow remove the previously rolled number from the random pool... Any Ideas? Someone entertained the idea of using random.sample() but I don't know where to start with that idea

Maybe rand.int could help, which can randomize things like dialogue and numbers too. I can help if thats what you mean.

You could use renpy.random.choice with list of allowed values.
Or you could make loop what will generate new random number until it is not in blacklist.

First approach is better, unless you want really wide range of values.

Code: Select all

    $ random1, random2 = renpy.random.sample([1, 2, 3, 4], 2)
