// Seed the random function with the layer's index for unique values
seedRandom(index, true);
// Generate a random rotation speed within the specified range
var randomRotationSpeed = random(minSpeed, maxSpeed);
// Define the range for randomization of the initial rotation offset
var randomRange = 180; // Range for the initial random rotation offset
// Generate a random value within the specified range for initial offset
var randomOffset = random(-randomRange, randomRange);
// Calculate the rotation based on the random rotation speed, time, and initial random offset
(time * randomRotationSpeed) + randomOffset;
