Doesnt mean that complex ideas dont exist IRL. Question is only about its implementation in coding.
Every other MMO, in all of the history, used rng roll.
Entropia, itself, uses it for weapons, finder depths, crit chances, etc.
When it says: weapon does 100-200 damage, it will roll a final amount based on those numbers.
When a ring says: it will add 2% crit, it will apply that modification to each shot, and output the final amount.
You can do a simple excercise.
1. Create a spread sheet.
2. Establish the means, for things like hit rate, claim size, etc,
3. Convert claim size mean into a positive destribution based on multipliers (skewed towards higher multis).
4. Convert the rest of the means into a normal destribution (within a reasonable range).
5. Iterate as many "drops" as you want.
6. You will see that it is easily comparable to any other mining log on this forum.
