    I want to use Math.Abs in my script, while also generating a number. However, trying to use Random.Range() gives me an error since it interferes with the System that I imported.

    How could I solve this?

    Both UnityEngine and System have a Random function. You need to specify which one you want to use. E.g. UnityEngine.Random or System.Random

    If you need the UnityEngine Random, just put this in the top of the file:
    using Random=UnityEngine.Random;
