GetRandomQuality(Person, Random, ActionInfo, bool, IEmotionSource, bool)

Returns a semi-randomly generated Quality for the given Person based on their level of this skill. The higher the skill level is, the more likely it is for higher qualities to be returned.

Parameters

person Person

The person that has this skill

random Random

The random that should be used for calculation

info ActionInfo

The action info to use for determining the random quality. If this is set, OnRandomQuality(Person, ActionInfo, bool, SkillType, Random, bool, Dictionary<Quality, float>) will be invoked for all involved objects.

modifyEmotions bool
