Title: Warp Bug Post by: Mobius13 on December 23, 2008, 01:24:35 PM I recenty hit someone less than 1/3 my fp 6 times, that person had a 95% warp chance all those times (i checked)
although i consider myself lucky i wanted t report it so that this does not keep happening... the chances of that happening are very slim and i doubt it was just chance. if anyone can look into this please do Title: Re: Warp Bug Post by: SirEmi on December 23, 2008, 02:30:06 PM Ok thank you. 5% can happen, it's 1 in 20, it's a nice chance...
Title: Re: Warp Bug Post by: jessiedog on December 23, 2008, 04:25:19 PM (5^-84)% chance of it happening 6 times in a row tho :P
Title: Re: Warp Bug Post by: KenquinnTheInsaneOne on December 24, 2008, 04:47:24 PM (5^-84)% chance of it happening 6 times in a row tho :P Ahh but computers are not entirely random in generating numbers so yes that may be the pure statistical chance but its not the chance in reality.I get a one in 64.000.000 = (((1/20)^6) / 1) = 0.000000000005 % as the chance but it does not really matter :12: Title: Re: Warp Bug Post by: Mobius13 on December 25, 2008, 04:40:12 PM how come i never get this lucky with a good target?

You either neb them before a few attacks and you've been unlucky. You got the very low chance probability of hitting some with 5% of your power multiple times. If I had to guees the Irrational number generated by the current time using Java's Pseudo random number generator made you get a success 6 times in a row its a fluke. It it keeps on happening then there may be a issue with the code.Everyone has something incredible improbable happen to them you got 6 attacks on a guy with a 5% warp chance others win the lottery. You got the short straw. |
