Function: pickInView()

function pickInView<T>(
   items, 
   view, 
   random, 
   tries?
): T | null;

Defined in: src/ambient/life/lifeMotion.ts:41

One of items in view, tried tries times at random rather than filtered: a forest's thousands of tiles cost the same few reads as a hamlet's dozen, and a miss only means the body waits a frame to try again.
