Same seed, different result on different browsers #59

Closed lexar closed 5 years ago

lexar commented 5 years ago

Tested on a Mac with the same seed of course: -when using 2 instances of Chrome, the result of a randomly altered render in a canvas is exactly the same, even after 12000 loops. -when using 1 instance of Chrome and 1 instance of Safari, the result is different. Chrome is the same as above, Safari is totally different.

So I assume the results depend on the browser / version / js engine. My question: Is this a fixable bug, an undesired but unavoidable bug, or a feature?

Thanks and thanks for the library. l

Post code that reproduces the problem? (Ideally minimal code.)
