Verified: Entering the lagoon zone near the feeder can trigger a chance for Shroomie to appear.
On the 26th pull of the lever Shroomie appeared. May I say I find this just a bit too odd to dismiss out of hand since so many other people are getting similar results.
Additional appearances (without leaving the age): 7th pull, 1st pull, 3rd pull.
Huh? Really? whrandom was changed? Ah, ha!
original code:
- Code: Select all
def WillShroomieBeSeen(self,probability):
randnum = whrandom.randint(0,100)
latest code:
- Code: Select all
def WillShroomieBeSeen(self,probability):
randnum = random.randint(0,100)
Now I'm curious as to why this routine was changed and if it might have an undesired result and how many other parts of the game might be affected. I guess I will peek at both scripts and see if I can figure anything out... don't hold your breath that I will understand a bit of it
Yep! Just as I thought... I don't understand a line of the code
. whrandom seems to use the system time to seed the generator. random appears to do things a a bit diffently although it seems vastly more versatile. I'm inclined to think what we are seeing might be found here but I couldn't say what (or if) there is really a problem. WIthout having the value of the number returned by
random in the log file, I don't know how we can tell if something obviously strange is happening.
