You only need two angles to get a point on the earth
.
angle 1: lat(latitude) = random number between -60.0 and 60.0
angle 2: long(longitude) = random number between 0 and 360.0
Assuming the planet is centred on 0,0,0, and that at lat = 0, long = 0 is at r,0,0, y is the polar axis, then the co-ordinates are
x = r*cos(long)*cos(lat)
z = r*sin(long)*cos(lat)
y = r*sin(lat)
I think that's right off the top off my head. I'll double check when I get home. You should be able to use wrapvalue commands, but sin and cos should do fine if your just placing points on the earth. Hope that helps
