Hello everyone, I apologize for the English, please tell me how can I make a random distribution of roles?

I need to call the function, implement the issuance of roles for the players.

There is a certain but, the role is assigned g_iRole [iClient] = Role_Name

There is a counter of how many roles need to be given to players, that is, based on the number of roles, it is necessary to randomly assign them to the players.

my counter roles:

void CalculateRoles()
{
	int iTotalPlayers = 0;
	
	// roleOne, roleTwo, roleThree, roleFour // global int
	
	for(int i = 1; i <= MaxClients; ++i)
	{
		if(IsClientInGame(i) && IsPlayerAlive(i))
		{
			iTotalPlayers++;
		}
	}

	roleOne = iTotalPlayers / 6;
	roleTwo = iTotalPlayers / 10;
	roleThree = (iTotalPlayers > 2) ? (iTotalPlayers / 5) :  (iTotalPlayers > 1 ? 1 : 0);
	roleFour = iTotalPlayers - roleOne - roleTwo - roleThree;
}

I have a timer at the end of which I need to assign roles. By calling a function such as InitRoles (), I'm not so much a pro yet, I can't figure out how to better implement it. I ask for help

Thank you very much for those who can help

I tried to do this, but I'm not sure if this is a normal solution. Someone does not give a role at all.

void InitRoles()
{
	LoopClients(i) g_iRole[i] = Role_None;
	
	for (int i = 1; i <= RolesCounter[Role_One]; i++) {	
		if(g_iRole[i] == Role_None) g_iRole[GetRandomClient()] = Role_One;
	}
	for (int i = 1; i <= RolesCounter[Role_Two]; i++) {	
		if(g_iRole[i] == Role_None) g_iRole[GetRandomClient()] = Role_Two;
	}
	for (int i = 1; i <= RolesCounter[Role_Three]; i++) {	
		if(g_iRole[i] == Role_None) g_iRole[GetRandomClient()] = Role_Three;
	}
	for (int i = 1; i <= RolesCounter[Role_Four]; i++) {	
		if(g_iRole[i] == Role_None) g_iRole[GetRandomClient()] = Role_Four;
	}
	
	LoopClients(iClient) {
		
		switch(g_iRole[iClient])
		{
			case Role_One:
			{
				//
			}
			case Role_Two:
			{
				//
			}
			case Role_Three:
			{
				//
			}
			case Role_Four:
			{
				//
			}
		}
	}
}

int GetRandomClient() 
{
    int[] clients = new int[MaxClients];
    int clientCount;

    LoopClients(i)
    {
        if (IsPlayerAlive(i))
        {
            clients[clientCount++] = i;
        }
    }

    return (clientCount == 0) ? -1 : clients[GetRandomInt(0, clientCount-1)];
}

I wanted to show one "random" way shuffle players, using adt_array with custom sort.

But I'm bit lost about "roles", how those need work... I let that part out for now.

You see in this Console output how it does.

It is necessary to issue the roles of the player, the roles have restrictions. Let's say role1 - 1 player, role2 - 2 player

and let's say for 30 players you need to distribute 2 roles to 3 players out of 30 players
