A little addon that summon a random mount.
The problem is that I press the key and summon mount A, I don't want it and repress A (got same mount :-), again ... again until it changes :-) Ok, it is intended to be random, but what I'd like to remove is the effect to have a lot of times the same number picked ...

The relevant part of code is this:

local number=random(1,#MyCatMount_mrc[category]);
        local picked=MyCatMount_mrc[category][number]:lower();
        local msg=prgname .. " error: unable to summon \"" .. picked .. "\" from \"" .. category .. "\" category.";
        
        for index=1,GetNumCompanions("MOUNT") do
            local _,name=GetCompanionInfo("MOUNT",index);
            if name:lower()==picked then 
                msg = prgname .. " is summoning... " .. picked;
                CallCompanion("MOUNT",index);
                break;
            end
        end

Thanks for your answer anyway.
