Its not for execute little c# snippets .

Yeah, I know Kodiak. I've seen somewhere on the forums a code snippet demonstrating what I'm looking for, but I can't find it again (damn)

These?:

 private void damageAiControlledPlane(AiActor actorMain)
    {
        foreach (AiActor actor in actorMain.Group().GetItems())
        {
            if (actor == null || !(actor is AiAircraft))
                return;

            AiAircraft aircraft = (actor as AiAircraft);

            if (!isAiControlledPlane(aircraft))
                return;

            if (aircraft == null)
                return;

            aircraft.hitNamed(part.NamedDamageTypes.ControlsElevatorDisabled);
            aircraft.hitNamed(part.NamedDamageTypes.ControlsAileronsDisabled);
            aircraft.hitNamed(part.NamedDamageTypes.ControlsRudderDisabled);
            aircraft.hitNamed(part.NamedDamageTypes.FuelPumpFailure);

            int iNumOfEngines = (aircraft.Group() as AiAirGroup).aircraftEnginesNum();
            for (int i = 0; i < iNumOfEngines; i++)
            {
                aircraft.hitNamed((part.NamedDamageTypes)Enum.Parse(typeof(part.NamedDamageTypes), "Eng" + i.ToString() + "TotalFailure"));
            }


            Timeout(300, () =>
            { destroyPlane(aircraft); }
                );
        }
    }

I think you might have to list the items in a list then random select an item(line by number) to use. This may however have a parse problem where you are transfering built in code to string types(listing) and back again.(am I sick of parsing problems yes I am)

might have some syntax errors in the following, but something like, (yes this came from Kodiak )

List<Damage> DamageList = new List<Damage>
{
    new Damage ("ElecBatteryFailure"),
    new Damage ("ElecGeneratorFailure")
// add each damage type(note add comma on preceeding line)

};

    internal class Damage 
   {
        public string EDamageType { get; set; }
        public Damage(string eDamageType)
       {
            this.EDamageType = eDamageType;
       }
   }


//random selection
Random rand = new Random();          

int i = 0;
if (DamageList.Count > 0)
i = rand.Next(0, DamageList.Count);
aircraft.hitNamed(part.NamedDamageTypes.DamageList[i].EDamageType);
});
