Formula's for planet creation

Anyone know what the formula's are for for planet creation using MT's?

As in how often each type is created-and the RNG that's being used for "randomness"?

Are you trying to suggest that the randomness isn't random?

there is always a formula

if it were truly random then duals would be created just as often as regulars-there is a formula-along with a RNG for randomness.

So let me guess... you want to calculate how many multies you have to make, to increase the probability of getting a dual, right? :?

WTH?? I take serious offense to that comment! I have never been a multi-nor will I become one. Wanting to know how and why things work is just part of being a geek.

Your jumping to conclusions about multying show the way you think though-which is scary enough-but accusing someone of being a multi without any evidence at all? That is just wrong.

Anyways-still waiting for someone with knowledge of how this works to enlighten us all.

It was a joke... WTH :roll:

It wasn`t adressed exactly to your person, i do not even know you... it was a sarcastic comment, explaining why this formula should not be revealed. :roll:

I'm sure he was just stirring stuff, Cyber. ;) (edit: See?)
Don't yell.

I don't know anything about this yet. :)
Seems Nigatsu's right though.. it'll call for multies in many places.

I apologize for my reply. I am just touchy about some subjects...

The reason I'm asking is that-I am extremely curious-and I want to know how many months of using the create planet function this is going to take. LOL.

Considering that it is on a weighted RNG system (I would assume) in theory it could take forever hee!

Faster to buy a dual or take one than to make one, since you can only make 1 a week. And that would be what.. 1050 people could you spy on with planets.. or do both I suppose.

Oh-I know that using the create planet function probably won't get me anywhere.

I still want to know though... It's the geek in me :-D

hey u might just want to knw only because u ar a crazy smart guy, but not all are like u. when oothers find the fomula then i am sure just like nigatsu said many people will try to use it for bad things.. resulting in many mulits so better if no one reveled it

:lol:

That's about the how-manieth time that's been said here?
Always nice to read a new variation.

It takes a penultimately infinite amount of multies to get 1 dual, let alone 10.. so, quite a pointless effort to suggest anyone would be such a dumbass to try and multi-create major planets. :)



I say Destiny guides the RNG.
Although it's funny.. I found 2 good UP planets through exploration after I lost ALL my planets in one night. ;) (next one was a bad egg, monstrous, 100mil defense bonus, no def)

the thing taking even more multies to get, is 10 triples...

triples? I have yet to see any proof of such...
