In GDScript, is it possible to exclude a set of numbers (that’s not in range) from the randi() function ?

there’s no functionality for it.
that is a very corner case, and you should make a logic for your need.

Do you mean something like this?

var MaxNumber = 20
var BadNumbers = [0, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17]
var aNumber = 0
while (aNumber in BadNumbers) : aNumber = randi()%MaxNumber
print(aNumber)

Exactly what i want, thank you!
