Skin hue

[Morgion]

Hello
Bit operators is little hard for me, so i ask here:
This set random skin hue for humans
Utility.Random(1002, 57) | 0x8000;
and how can i get back int value from this, if i need number that corresponds with hues.mul (1002-1058)
thank you

The random function will return an int of 1002-1058 just as you need. It's my understanding that the" | 0x8000" would cap the int at 32,768 if it were to be a number larger than that. This clearly cannot happen with the range given in the Random function so that part of the code isn't really doing anything.

Thank you for reply

int a = 1002 | 0x8000;
Console.WriteLine("a is {0}", a); //33770
Console.WriteLine("a is {0}", a ^= 0x8000); //1002

I figured out that operator ^= return value back to value from random function. But stil dont know why is this system used.
Anyway thanks again
