I know that the AI will run through your input plays from top to bottom. However, how does it handle the output? The reason why I'm asking is because if I set more than one output, a click of the update scrambles it. Not a problem if I only have one AI with multiple outputs, but if I have more than one input with multiple outputs, the getting the correct order would wear my poor mouse out.

Is there a fix for this or am I looking at this incorrectly?

The output is based on running a check and going against the % chance of calling that "play". So it doesn't matter which order the outputs are listed in, it is a random chance for any of the listed outputs (with a % assigned to it) to trigger.

So if I understand this correctly, say I have this:

Input Play
10 % Output play B
15% Output play C
100% Output play A
25% Output play D

The AI doesn't go through the four from top to bottom, but will choose one at random based on the percentage? In that case, should I set the 100% to 50%?

My first play on my outputs tend to fire first. It is a percent chance but it says at the very top of the AI it goes from top to bottom so I don't know. But I do know on my inputs where I have alot of outputs the first 1 fires more.

If youre outputs don't total 100% they get knocked to a ratio which does.

This is my guess how outputs are chosen.

20% output 1 --> allocate numbers 1 - 20
30% output 2 --> allocate numbers 21 - 50
40% output 3 --> allocate numbers 51 - 90

SUM 90

Pick a random number between 1 and 90, refer to number allocations above to get your output.

Of course the actual coding is unknown but this would be my best guess.
