My guess on the way TDM works

This could have been posted before but

In the Database or whatever server coding vmk runs in there is a special code for treasure magic that selects a random number, say there's 5 prizes it will be a number 0-5 and the 0 means nothing and the 1-5 will be one of the prizes, each number 1-5 will have a number id which is the id of the item. Treasure detectors job is to select a number 0-5 and award based on whatever prize there is to the number.

I know in a game private server someone made a code like this for a NPC that awards items randomly that worked in the same way.

So that's my assumption.

But it recently switched to 1-10 no loses and a higher ammount of prizes.

They can edit the source all they want, I am guessing they removed the chance of getting no prize or made it very low

To lose you basically have to stand still or walk over a ride start or an exit.

I think 1-6 are the values, 0 would have no value.. no value could mean endless TDM?? "No prize" is a value. But I think I'm wrong..

 

[jasonpwns]

0 is a value since it's a number

doesn't matter if it's 1 or 0 that awards no prize, my idea does make since?

I get the exact same impression.

By the way I love the family picture in your signature. Ohana.

I think some values have better possibilities..
value = 0 means nothing
value = 1 means doesn't win a prize
That's what I'm trying to explain.

i think it's a range of numbers, that every step you take you spin twice, first spin determines if you win or not (1 or 0), then every other step you spin another number, and when the number falls within a certain range it assigns u a prize..

i.e. 1-100=yellow hat, 101-200=pink hat, etc. then something low like 201-210=purple ears, etc.

I think VMK uses random coordinates..

Cyre why make it compllicated?

It would prob lag the servers more and stuff idk but

1-7 is still pretty much the same thing.

I doubt it, there has to be a reason why it lands on a spot. Random coordinates + walking over them = win. Prize must have different probabilities, otherwise many people would have flying carpet, but that's not true?
