Generate random location first, then use scripts/PMC/PMC_FormationPosition.sqf script to set player AND his group there all nicely in formation (no ugly stacking).

PMCTODO This script is located in pmc_livonia_ninjas/m001.pmc_rattler/PMC/ dir for now, dunno where it is later if you forgot to update this page ;)

PMC/PMC_FormationPosition.sqf:
<code cpp>
//https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/formationPosition

// Reposition entire group to a new position (ground level)
private _group = group player;
private _leader = leader _group;

// set the leader to the spawn position
_leader setPosATL (_this select 0);

// Reposition all units of the group except the leader
{
	private _formationPos = formationPosition _x;
	_formationPos set [2, 0];
	_x setPosATL _formationPos;
} forEach (units _group - [_leader]);
