Alternative command

Hey @Rapid Dolphin!

Yes, and given how your Pastebins are set, you would go like this for example:

$(eval $(urlfetch json RAW_PASTEBIN_LINK_A); $(urlfetch json RAW_PASTEBIN_LINK_B); $(urlfetch json RAW_PASTEBIN_LINK_C); `${a} ${b} ${c}`)

Assuming your first Pastebin uses a, the second uses b, the third c, etc.

thank you I'll give it shot tonight

TEBIN_LINK_B); $(urlfetch json RAW_PASTEBIN_LINK_C); ${a} ${b} ${c})

So the every raw link needs to be used twice if I read that correctly?

I see what you meant. I guess I need to clarify. I have multiple pastes including individual lists. What I want is a single result, randomly picked from multiple pastes if possible.

I see... Then I'd go like this:

$(eval $(urlfetch json RAW_PASTEBIN_LINK_A); $(urlfetch json RAW_PASTEBIN_LINK_B); $(urlfetch json RAW_PASTEBIN_LINK_C); r=[a,b,c]; r[Math.floor(Math.random()*r.length)])

Still assuming your first Pastebin uses a , the second uses b , the third c , etc.

Thank you but I dont understand this part:

r=[a,b,c];

in reference to my links

Your first Pastebin link must use the variable a, your second one must use the variable b, the third one must use the variable c, etc...
r=[a,b,c] combines all the random outputs from your various pastes, and then we pick a random output out of these.
If you have more than 3 pastes, add d, e, etc.
I can't be clearer than this.

If you still don't understand, we'll do it my way, I tried to adapt my code to your pastes, but you're going to have to update your pastes to reflect my code, just so we get a clean and clear code.

Your Pastebin should look like this, nothing more:

`(HC) - New York`, 
`(HC) - Detroit`, 
`(HC) - Bronx`, 
`(HC) - Hollywood`, 
`(HC) - The Road to New Orleans`, 
`(HC) - Sights on Sin City`, 
`(HC) - Highspeed Takedown`, 
`(HC) - Los Angeles`, 
`(HC) - Latrells Car Part 1`, 
`(HC) - Latrells Car Part 2`, 
`(HC) - White Rock Hills`, 
`(HC) - Maine Highlands East`,
`(HC) - South Trip`,
`(HC) - Big Land`,
`(HC) - Going to Vegas`,
`(HC) - Dallas`

Then the code is the following:

$(eval 
a=$(urlfetch json FIRST_RAW_PASTEBIN_LINK).split(`,`);
b=$(urlfetch json SECOND_RAW_PASTEBIN_LINK).split(`,`);
...
n=$(urlfetch json N_RAW PASTEBIN_LINK).split(`,`);
z=a.concat(b,...,n);
z[Math.floor(Math.random()*z.length)];
)

So if you have 4 pastes:

$(eval 
a=$(urlfetch json FIRST_RAW_PASTEBIN_LINK).split(`,`);
b=$(urlfetch json SECOND_RAW_PASTEBIN_LINK).split(`,`);
c=$(urlfetch json THIRD_RAW_PASTEBIN_LINK).split(`,`);
d=$(urlfetch json FOURTH_RAW_PASTEBIN_LINK).split(`,`);
z=a.concat(b,c,d);
z[Math.floor(Math.random()*z.length)];
)

Another solution would be to create a new paste where you combine them all and just get a random output from there.

Thank you so much, thats much cleaner. I'll try it out soon!
