ATL cannot assign a value to a variable, so the $ rng = line is invalid
ATL also does not support conditionals like you have written ( if ... else )
Oh. Wow, I was completely unaware I was in ATL. Well that's a real bummer. The limitations of RenPy are so saddening tbh. Guess I can't randomize things like eye blinking then.
Doesn't that get set at image init, and thus not get randomised as you play the game? I remember that being the issue about a year or 2 ago so I don't know if it's still the case?

You are probably right... I didn't test it at all.
Personally I tend toward doing mine as DynamicDisplayables to have a bit more control over the progression of image frames.
