Since reading from RAM is faster than using the Random function, DJ was able to squeeze every last bit of speed from the game :)

What about the RAM is making it random? I think that is kinda what I was asking earlier, just not worded correctly :P.

what is stored into memory is various numbers for the most part most of the time. Because of this, it makes it look a bit random, even if it isn't

It was fun seeing it in the queue. When I saw “netham45.zip”, I started laughing even before I looked at the file because I knew something was up when I saw the name. :D
