'''Group will spawn with the same task as defined in the mission editor.''' The optional variables define which units in the group will not be randomized. The lowerLimit and upperLimit variables respectively define the low and upper limits on which unit indexes can be randomized. The excludeNum table is a table of numbers, in no particular order, of which unit indexes will be ignored.

A groups composition might be the same as last time, but a sam threat for instance would not always be in the same position within the group. <br /> <br /> |funcs= {{listOfMistDynAddFuncs}}<br /> <br /> }}<br /> [[Category: MIST|spawnRandomziedGroup]]</div>
