To what extent isn't the quality of randomness important to you?
Your posts reminds me of the way Doom (the original) did it for
things like enemy behaviour and shot dispersion: they generated
a static table of 256 random numbers once and any time they
needed a random byte they just picked the next in the table.
They didn't have any security or sciency concern and just
wanted to provide a different game each time so that worked
well for them. You won't find anything faster than that I think.
Exactly Cym13.
The important is to get a different number
Ok, thank you.
