[Gate-users] The seed generator takes no effect?

[Janus]

Dear gate-users,

I have run gate with jobsplitter. Definitely it has divided the job to 20 subjobs. However, I got the same imaging (i compared the 20 images bit by bit)! The setEngineSeed did work in the splitted *.mac files (bold text). The following codes show the contents of the two splitted files:

ClusterTestImaging1.mac

Any comments will be gratefully appreciated. Thanks in advance.
