NEAR Random Number (u128)

try not slicing it and logging the output, or using only 1 value from the vector.

Might be something wrong with your contract setup or the way you're running it e.g. perhaps env::random_seed isn't available in simulation tests or something?

I don't think it's available or has no real values in Rust unit tests.

Ok cool I am testing it with unit tests right now so that is probably the issue.
