If you look at the screenshot 1, you'll see that I'm trying to copy a bunch of variable names to do the same thing as the variables before them. But since there's a different name, I have to recopy the same thing 3 times.
Screen 2 has the same problem, but in a different way. Seems kinda like a waste of time copying and pasting over a hundred variables over a few hours.

The only workaround I can see to this is something like this:
Instead of using "winseller" "bucklemaker" etc. You'd have to use variables. One way to do this is to store all your variable names in a string object and set the variable names in your number generation code to retrieve a alterable string number.
On loop "generate"
RandomInt("random object",1,100) <= GroupItemValue("INI","",retrieve alterable text (get loop index of generate))
Set value GroupItemValue("INI","generated",retrieve alterable text (get loop index of generate)) + 1 to item retrieve alterable text (get loop index of generate)) in group "generated"
Alot of text but hopefully I understood your problem and you understand what I'm trying to say.
Hey, that's not a bad idea. I avoided values because I'd usually forget what they mean, but the string thing solves just about everything. Somehow I get the feeling something will mess up if I try that, but we'll see
Thanks!
