PROBABILITY
**********

This, admittedly brief, section covers random events, or, more specifically, the random number
values used by sprites when doing something randomly. The program takes the random number it
generates and looks to see if it is bigger than the numbers shown here. If it is, it does
something, if not, it does (OR doesn't do) something else.

Most often this value is $80 (128) which is '50/50' (Your maximum and minium values are thus $00
and $FF) Using this section allows you to control how often things happen. Your best bet it to
stick to multiples of 10 and to remember that $80 does not mean 'half the time' but more like
'on average' Slugs, for example when set to $FF slime every 2 seconds, at $00 never, and at $80
about once every 30 seconds.

Sadly not all random behavior is governed this way, some take a random number and compare it to
another random value in memory. (The most popular is DS:A54C) The Skypest does this. You cannot
change these probbabilities. (Yet.)
