The pseudorandom function is bugged, and the behaviour is reproducible.
I was suspicious about the behaviour of the Wheel of Fortune card so investigated the source code for the game.
The pseudorandom function reseeds the random number generate every time it is called by calling the pseudoseed and pseudohash functions. These functions return random numbers between 0 and 1.
The fundamental problem is that math.randomseed needs to be seeded with an integer, not a float.
By passing math.randomseed a value between 0 and 1, you are actually reseeding the random number generator with 0 every single time, so it always returns the same value.
Minimal example calling the in game functions:
print("Hash", pseudohash('wheel_of_fortune'))
print("Hash", pseudohash('wheel_of_fortune'))
print()
print("Seed", pseudoseed('wheel_of_fortune'))
print("Seed", pseudoseed('wheel_of_fortune'))
print()
print("Random", pseudorandom('wheel_of_fortune'))
print("Random", pseudorandom('wheel_of_fortune'))
Output:
Hash 0.94586612281103
Hash 0.94586612281103
Seed 0.382711028346
Seed 0.2271400634016
Random 0.39438292663544
Random 0.39438292663544
As you can see, the pseudorandom function always returns the same value.
Minimal example of the behaviour of the math.randomseed function in pure lua:
print("Seeding with random integers")
math.randomseed(100)
print(math.random())
math.randomseed(300)
print(math.random())
print()
print("Seeding with always 0")
math.randomseed(0)
print(math.random())
math.randomseed(0)
print(math.random())
print()
print("Seeding with random float")
math.randomseed(0.89123)
print(math.random())
math.randomseed(0.3213)
print(math.random())
Output:
Seeding with random integers
0.28494340414181
0.40422917110845
Seeding with always 0
0.39438292663544
