Talk:Sack of spiders
I found the data used to calculate each insect's chance to appear, but I can't seem to understand the picking algorithm ([1]) so if anyone understands it, feel free to fill in the blanks. If anyone feels lucky, here's the data : static const pop_entry pop_spiders[] = { // Sack of Spiders
{ 0, 13, 40, FALL, MONS_WORKER_ANT },
{ 0, 13, 80, FALL, MONS_SOLDIER_ANT },
{ 6, 19, 80, PEAK, MONS_REDBACK},
{ 8, 27, 90, PEAK, MONS_REDBACK },
{ 10, 27, 10, SEMI, MONS_ORB_SPIDER },
{ 12, 29, 100, PEAK, MONS_JUMPING_SPIDER },
{ 13, 29, 110, PEAK, MONS_TARANTELLA },
{ 15, 29, 120, PEAK, MONS_WOLF_SPIDER },
{ 21, 27, 18, RISE, MONS_GHOST_MOTH },
{ 0,0,0,FLAT,MONS_0 }

I think I know what this means. So for worker ant, You can get it at level 0, and it has a score of 40, meaning that for every generated insect, there is a (score)/(total score) chance of it being a worker ant. Because it says FALL, that means that the chance falls from 0 evocations to 13. Peak probably means that it peaks in the middle of the 2 skills and goes up/down linearly until it hits the peak.
Rise on the ghost moth probably means that the chance starts at 21 and then goes up to a peak of 18. Not sure what Semi is, someone should look into that.
Also the Flat Mons_0 at the end should have no impact and is probably there as a placeholder if they wanted to add a new insect.
