Generate unique arguments: seed random numbers based on the position of each physics feature in the model tree. This ensures that random numbers generated for different physics features are independent of each other. Use this option to make the results of a study reproducible when running the study multiple times in succession. The random numbers may still differ when running the same study on different architectures or in different versions of the software.

Generate random arguments: seed random numbers using randomly generated double-precision numbers.

User defined: When this option is selected, additional text fields appear in the settings windows for all features that use random numbers. The number entered in this text field is used as an additional argument for random number generation. A set of distinct solutions can be obtained by running a Parametric Sweep over several values of this additional argument.

In the Brownian Motion tutorial, several different values of the User defined random number seed are used. The results show similar global quantities such as transmission probability, but the paths of individual particles are uncorrelated for each value of the random number seed.
