Why is my randomiser not random?!

Archive: 4 posts


I've had feedback regarding my Blackjack level (in sig) and noticed it myself that the randomiser is not choosing random inputs on each play, but rather choosing a random pattern each play and repeating it whenever you hit the 'Replay' button. If you quit the level and go back into it the pattern will be different, but obviously that's frustrating for the players. I've checked and double-checked all my connections, and everything is running through the randomiser, no reason why this should happen.

Is there anything that can be done about it or is the randomiser really just not random at all?

I'm pretty sure this is a known problem with the randomizer. No idea what fixes if any exist for it though.2011-02-16 18:32:00

It is a known problem. I just made a lights-out type game that is supposed to give the player a new puzzle every time, but instead it chooses the same "random" pattern. Even if you leave the level and come back, same thing. The only way I can get a new pattern is if I change anything in create mode and save, but then every time you play it's going to be that new pattern. You can make it truly random by giving the player some control of the randomizer, like having them press a button to stop it. Unfortunately in my level if I did that the player could just let the randomizer run until it solves the puzzle. If you guys have any fixes let me know.2011-02-16 21:50:00
