: When allocating those 18 placements it looks like it is doing so in a less
: random manner than in the original game. So each time you start the
: placement is pretty much the same. In the original game, every time you
: start it is slightly different or in some cases very different.
If there are clusters of indexes of a type of monster, the random placement code will tend to favor placing monsters of that type at the beginning indexes of those clusters. Bungie wasn't very good with randomness in Marathon 2. But, I doubt it was any better in Marathon! So I'm not convinced that is the answer.
We'll get to the bottom of it.
