Random Generator Bug

The random generator in the character creation screen is not random enough, it allways rolls a 100 (sum of all 6 attributes) with a strength value of 18/03 for a sufficient high number of attempts (400000 - 800000 rolls). I think there is a relation between the maximum total roll and the strength offset or an unknown roll limit.

The bug shows up if you create human fighter. I didn't test other fighter classes or other races.

Tested OS: Windows 8, 10

Refresh rate was 60.

    I'm going to need to know what auto-roller you are using.

    Do you think that it's able to influence the result?
    Maybe I should create my own autoroller.

    So you say, the sum of rolls is always 100 for 18/03 ???
    There is only a minimum limit, sum of rolls cannot be less than 75.

    No, if you create a human fighter and manage to roll a 100, you allways (or very often) get a strength value of 18/03. The total roll seems to determine the strength.

    All my 5 fighters had a strength of 18/03. That's very unlikely. I don't know what would happen in case of higher total rolls, but I hope that it is possible to roll 101 or above.

    I was wrong. It's not just the strength value. I got the exactly identical roll several times. That doesn't happen in IWD EE.
