Standardize function inputs that use percentage values

FlexSim currently uses different conventions for function inputs that are percentages. For example:

  • the bernoulli function requires the probability to be between 0-100 (so 60% probability is 60).
  • setting an RGB color requires the color values to be between 0-1 (so 60% red is 0.6).

It would be useful if future versions were more consistent in how they handle percentage values. I'm not sure it would be feasible to change existing functions due to jeopardizing backwards compatibility, but at the least it would help to adopt a standard convention for future functions that use percentages. Thanks for considering this suggestion.
