question about seed

[JacquiFreeElectron]

When seeding, must the dummy data comply with the game logic? For example, can I have something looks like this:

That will cause a situation where both tie and win are true. Is this allowed in seeding?

I was wondering that too ... in the end I chose to hard code some 'real' game data so the seeded games would display correctly.

Yes, the data should comply with the game logic. You want it to most accurately represent the kind of real data you will be working with.

@susanBuck Got it. So can I use hard-coded data to make it comply with the game logic?

Hi @JacquiFreeElectron - Absolutely. Generating random seed data can be useful for efficiency, especially if you want to seed a non-trivial amount of data. But there's nothing to say you can't hard-code your data.

@susanBuck Got it. Thank you so much!
