Random selection not working correctly?
« on: 17 August 2009, 23:28:49 »
OK as I'm new thought I would play a couple of games with random faction selection as haven't discovered my favourite yet.

First game pitted myself against the CPU using MP4 Tech Tree and we were both Tech. It was the Conflict map and I didn't realise the spawn points we right next to each other so didn't last long.

Second game did 2x2 with the MP4 Tech Tree and two of them were Tech (think the first two again.)

Then I thought I would start a few and see if I can get me as player 1 to start as anything but Tech. Started about 10 in total, rought half/half between magitech and MP4 Tech Trees and every single time I started as the Tech Faction. This beats some amazing odds and makes me think Random selection isn't working as it should.

PS Not sure if I should be posting these to the Bug Tracker but feel it's probably worth confirming they are bugs here first. Did do a search foSr the word Random on the first page and it didn't show up.

Sounds like a bug :)

I thought I'd fixed this actually, but it was the random start locations, not techs...

Was running 0.2.11 before, just got 0.2.12 working and seems random selection is OK in this version. Only started one game in MP4 and started as Norsemen with me in first slot.
