## automodel.rand_method -- control initial model randomization

> This is used to randomize the initial model before producing each final model. If set to `None` then no randomization is done, and every model will be the same. You can set it to one of the functions in the `randomize` module -- `randomize.xyz` (the default) to randomize all coordinates of standard residues, or `randomize.dihedrals` to randomize dihedral angles. (The amount of randomization carried out by these two functions can be tuned by changing automodel.deviation.) Finally, you could provide your own Python function; see the `randomize` module in `modlib/modeller/automodel/randomize.py` for examples to get you started.
