[BUG] Reliabilty RNG in the game.

Post by ch_lemr73 »

Hello,

By RNG i mean the random number generator.

Having played the game for a while now, i've noticed that if i saved a game before planning a mission, a failure would always occurs on the same step if i choose to plan the same mission. This is not what i would call a random event, because a save/load doesn't change anything, neither is a quit/start game or even a computer reset.

Is it intended ? Is it planned that the RNG will be resetted on load game on future builds on the beta ?

Hello ch_lemr73,

Welcome to the forums! Indeed, the behaviour your described is working as intended. The PRNG is seeded and we store the number of times it's been used as part of the savefile. So when you load a new game we can put the PRNG in the exact same state as it was when you saved the game. We do this on purpose, so that players don't cheat by trying to reload the file after a failed mission.
