0 Kamazy Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 I think this was discussed before............ Link to comment
0 Gamefreek Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 The team tried to randomize the map changes as best they could, but there could still be mishaps in it like the one above. Link to comment
0 MrJax Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 There's nothing you can do to get complete randomness in programming, programs follow code, nothing more. Even a great algorithm is going to be repetitive. Link to comment
0 CoZ Posted May 9, 2006 Author Share Posted May 9, 2006 There's nothing you can do to get complete randomness in programming, programs follow code, nothing more.Even a great algorithm is going to be repetitive. true .. but the current random can be improved greatly (repetetive in the sense it will keep picking a random number out the same set , dont ask me for the algorithm but someone must have come up with somehting to do a good random) Link to comment
0 NazcaC2 Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 The randomizing code could include: [ignores the map that you're currently playing] & [randomizes the rest of the maps] = preventing exact mirroring of the same map continuously. If it was done this way, it still may result like this: ie. 10 maps, and when randomized.. may result like: #3,#10,#3,#6,#10,#6 (still could be the same map after 2 random votes; but consequently better than two of the same maps side-by-side).
