Description

Description:
Defines the time between condition satisfaction and trigger activation (randomly from min to max, with an average value mid). If the last argument is true, the condition must be fullfilled all the time.

For a normal trigger, min, mid and max are used to generate random duration according to Gaussian Distribution[1]. For a "Seized" type of trigger, the duration value is generated using side ruling power

  1. Technically, it is a rescaled Bates distribution with n = 4. The distribution is split in two at its midpoint and scaled linearly such that its maximum lies at the specified midpoint.
