 ## Randomization

-(The agent's random property is just a reference to its parent model's
-`random` property).
+`Agent.random` is just a convenient shorthand in the Agent class to `self.model.random`. If you create your own `AgentSet`
+instances, you have to pass `random` explicitly. Typically, you can simply do, in a Model instance, 
+`my_agentset = AgentSet([], random=self.random)`. This ensures that `my_agentset` uses the same random
+number generator as the rest of the model.

 When a model object is created, its random property is automatically seeded
 with the current time. The seed determines the sequence of random numbers; if
 you instantiate a model with the same seed, you will get the same results.
 To allow you to set the seed, make sure your model has a `seed` argument in its
