Not sure what you mean?
You get a random float value between 0 and 1, and you can use this in other nodes.
For example to drive the hue of a HSV node to generate colors, or as input for a color ramp, or in a color mix, etc.

I mean considering the actual image show wood planks of grey to white how we set node if it a texture instead of simple grey color variation.

BTW we still miss a great node ( Layer weight node from cycles). The current hitpoint info node doesn't dynamically behave according to camera viewpoint like the one in cycles. It is a must have for realistic carpaint shader.


Here you can see some great example from jeff patton : https://jeffpatton.net/pt-portfolio/portfolio/

I added some new statistics, hopefully useful:
- mesh export time
- hair export time
- instancing time
- info about caches (enabled/disabled)
