Lua Respawn - more than one place.

[Apoccalypse]

Hi quys,
I have the following script:

Spoiler: Respawn

local config = {
    bosspos = {x = 246, y = 969, z = 4},
    bossspawnstorage = 70400
}
local monster = {'Ferumbras'}


local function respawn()
    doCreateMonster('Ferumbras', config.bosspos)
    doBroadcastMessage('There are rumors that Ferumbras walks around his chamber...', 21)
    setGlobalStorageValue(config.bossspawnstorage, 0)
end
function onKill(cid, target, damage, flags)
local minspawn = 86400  --1d
local maxspawn = 259200 -- 3d
local random = math.random(minspawn, maxspawn)

    if isMonster(target) then
        local targetName = getCreatureName(target)
        local playerName = getCreatureName(cid)
        if isInArray(monster, targetName) and getGlobalStorageValue(config.bossspawnstorage) ~= 1 then
            local message = ("%s has just killed the evil mage %s. Congratulation!"):format(playerName, targetName)
            doBroadcastMessage(message, 21)
            setGlobalStorageValue(config.bossspawnstorage, 1)
            addEvent(respawn, random * 1000)
        end
    end
    return true
end

It works great for me but I am just wondering is it possible to make the boss to respawn at one of three declared places.Let's call them:
local pos1 ={x=x1 ,y=y1 ,z=z1}
local pos2 ={x=x2 ,y=y2 ,z=z2}
local pos3 ={x=x3 ,y=y3 ,z=z3}
The final result which I want to receive is that the boss would have the chance 33.33% to respawn at one of these places.

I tried to do something like this:

Spoiler: Script

local config = {
   
    bossspawnstorage = 70401
}

local monster = {'Evil Mastermind'}


local function respawn() 
local   bosspos1 = {x = 435, y = 505, z = 7}
local    bosspos2 = {x = 437, y = 499, z = 7}
local    bosspos3 = {x = 442, y = 506, z = 7}
local   Posrandom = random(bosspos1, bosspos2, bosspos3)

    doCreateMonster('Evil Mastermind', Posrandom)
    doBroadcastMessage('There are rumors that Evil Mastermind walks around his chamber...', 21)
    setGlobalStorageValue(config.bossspawnstorage, 0)
end

function onKill(cid, target, damage, flags)
local minspawn = 1  --1d
local maxspawn = 5 -- 3d
local random = math.random(minspawn, maxspawn)


    if isMonster(target) then
        local targetName = getCreatureName(target)
        local playerName = getCreatureName(cid)
        if isInArray(monster, targetName) and getGlobalStorageValue(config.bossspawnstorage) ~= 1 then
            local message = ("%s has just killed the evil mage %s. Congratulation!"):format(playerName, targetName)
            doBroadcastMessage(message, 21)
            setGlobalStorageValue(bossspawnstorage, 1)
            addEvent(respawn, random * 1000)
        end
    end
    return true
end

But I get this error:

If anyone would help that would be great

try something like this for your positions

local t = {
   {x = 100, y = 100, z = 7},
   {x = 100, y = 100, z = 7},
   {x = 100, y = 100, z = 7}
}

   {x = 437, y = 499, z = 7},
   {x = 442, y = 506, z = 7}}

local monster = {'Evil Mastermind'}


local function respawn()
local   Posrandom = random(t)

    doCreateMonster('Evil Mastermind', Posrandom)

            addEvent(respawn, random * 1000)
        end
    end
    return true
end

It's 'math.random', not just 'random'.

local Posrandom = t[math.random(#t)]

Thank you very much. It works perfect !
