It seems this is innate knowledge bestowed upon everyone at birth, unfortunately I lack the understanding. Could someone link me to a tutorial on how to use the unrandomizer, what it does exactly and why someone would use it? I've been searching but can only find vague and unclear information.

Thanks a bunch

it can help change droprates and the type of items you get in some games. (or make it predictable)
But you need to mess with the unrandomizer settings for the best effect

[FreeER]

From my basic understanding many games use common random number generators (like rand in C/C++), and CE's un-randomizer hooks/modifies those common functions so that instead of running the normal code and returning a random value they instead return a value set in the settings->Unrandomizer options or return a number that increments each time the/a(?) random function is called.

Thus, if a game has something like:

if(entity.health < 0)
{
dropLoot(entity.position, entity.lootTable[rand() % entity.maxLootItems]);
}

the rand() function would always return some specific value, say 0, thus making that entity always drop the first item in it's loot table (or if set to an incremental value it would drop the first item, then the next kill would drop the second item, etc.)

Do correct me if I'm wrong on anything.

yup. that's how it works

[davethewave_83]

Oh I see, thanks for clearing it up for me.

ok so let me get this right i click the unrandomizer and set a number i would like. say a drop rate was maybe set to always be 20 i set it to 100 with the unrandomizer im assumeing
