Each infantryman caught by a web draws a whole number at random between minus and plus this figure, inclusive, and adds it to WebDuration. Infantry caught by the same shot can break free at different times. At 25 and the default WebDuration, the waits run from 275 to 325 frames, a spread of a little over three seconds at fifteen frames a second. At 0, every infantryman waits exactly WebDuration.

WebDurationVariation=90 ; each infantryman waits 510 to 690 frames, 34 to 46 seconds

A negative figure behaves exactly like its positive counterpart.

The setting is read only while the warhead is Webby=yes.
