  Several new radio facilities have a field of view and sensitivity well suited
for transient searches. This makes it more important than ever to accurately
determine transient rates in radio surveys. The work presented here seeks to do
this task by using Monte-Carlo simulations. In particular, the user inputs
either a real or simulated observational setup, and the simulations code
calculates transient rate as a function of transient duration and peak flux.
These simulations allow for simulating a wide variety of scenarios including
observations with varying sensitivities and durations, multiple overlapping
telescope pointings, and a wide variety of light curve shapes with the user
having the ability to easily add more. While the current scientific focus is on
the radio regime, with examples given here from the MeerKAT telescope in South
Africa, the simulations code can be easily adapted to other wavelength regimes.
