GBA Random Number Seeds
I've done a fair amount of research on FE7's random number seed: enough to definitively tell whether the first 4,000 or so RNs starting from turn 1 of the prologue of Lyn's tale are high or low, plus information on which RNs result in which arena opponents for melee unpromoted characters. I can say with 99.9% certainty, based on similar experiments with FE8's random number seed, that it is the same as FE7's; I checked 100 consecutive RNs in FE8 and found that they matched up perfectly with the corresponding section of FE7's RNG; the odds of that being the case, but the seeds not being identical, are 1:2^100.
I would like to share what I have learned about this, if there is a way to provide the spreadsheets that I created to keep track of the data. Pavielpetrovich (talk) 16:14, 31 October 2023 (UTC)
- You could share them on the Discord, a link to which is in the site news header. — Thecornerman (talk) 17:10, 31 October 2023 (UTC)
