I was tired of working out d100 tables by hand so I made this spreadsheet to do the maths for me! Just go to File->Make a Copy to start playing around with it. You enter the items you want included in the table in the names column, the weight of each item in the weights column (all the weights would be 1 if there's an equal chance of each item occurring), and watch the spreadsheet automagically give you a properly distributed* 1d100 table!
*There's some necessary rounding taking place, but it's about as close to the precise ratios as you could ask for.

Anthony Chaplin No I don't think you can print off but its simplicity and ability to reference other tables or have a simple choice within the body of the text being generated is excellent I think - I have just downloaded Fergus' one though and interested to see how that works
ReplyDeleteHoward Dawson Please let me know how you get on.
ReplyDeleteI use weighted tables in some of my random stuff generators. Always nice because javascript has no problem rolling a 1d138. :-)
