Add: Return random position in a desired direction +- an angle

[Vdauphin]

Hello,
Now you can also search for a random position in a desired direction with a define amplitude.

Does it fit CBA ?

When merged this pull request will:

• Now you can also search for a random position in a desired direction with a define amplitude of angle (search in direction 100° with +- 25° angle of amplitude).
• params has been updated with optional parameter (default value search for a random position in the circle)
• _direction - 0.5*_amplitude + random _amplitude give the possibility to search in a direction with +- _amplitude
• Respect the Submitting Content Guidelines --> tell me if anything is wrong

Quick code to test the behavior with an exemple of the result:

for "_i" from 1 to 1000 do { 
     private _direction = 100; 
     private _amplitude = 50; 
     private _pos = (getpos player) getPos [100*sqrt random 1 , _direction - 0.5*_amplitude + random _amplitude]; 
     deleteMarker str(_i); 
     private _marker = createmarker [str(_i), _pos]; 
     systemChat str(_pos); 
     str(_i) setMarkerSize [1,1]; 
     str(_i) setMarkerType "mil_dot"; 
     str(_i) setMarkerColor "ColorBlue"; 
     str(_i) setMarkerShape "ICON"; 
};

Does it fit CBA ?

Sure.

Is "amplitude" the right word for this? Can't really think of anything. "Spread"?
These parameters should be explained in the functions header.

Newline should stay.

"Angle" is the term for this - the angle of the circular arc in which the random position will end up. See : Arc

Sound better, I am agree. So header like this is okay ? :
_angle - the angle of the circular arc in which the random position will end up. (optional, default: 360) <NUMBER>

Yes
