Monte Carlo versus "The Math"

Action Man

I've put action points into the sim. So far, there isn't any simulation of resource hoarding, so action points are spent as soon as they become available.

Action points make a huge difference in survivability. Anybody analyzing the math and not taking action points into account is missing a major advantage PCs have over monsters (that, healing surges, and dailies seem to be the biggies). Survival is up to 59% from 43%, a 37% increase. It takes a major string of bad luck for our dwarf to be killed in the first fight--see "Example of 0 fight(s) survived" below for such a comedy of errors.

One quirk of the simulation you should know about: The "Spend Action Point" power is different from the "action point" resource. As a result, you'll see notes like "Spend Action Point recharges" at the end of an encounter even if the dwarf doesn't have any action points. There will be a separate note when the dwarf gains a new action point.

Similarly, you'll see that monsters have a "Spend Action Point" power even though they have no action points.

Hi everybody!

I'll be joining Truename in this effort.

So far, I've managed to run a simulation very similar as the one he had in the first page (last post).
It's only one fight per day and the Second Wind ability is a Standard Action instead of Minor, and it's doesn't give the +2 Defenses bonus yet.

Note that the brutal property of a d6 is modelled by a 1d5 + 1, instead of 1d6 (Brutal 1). This is, for all mathematical purposes, the same.

Here are the results:

Strangely, I find that the Dwarf Fighter NEVER dies.
Yet in Truename's simulations it died 3% of the time.

I couldn't figure out why.
 

A Bird in the Hand

I've tweaked the sim's AI slightly (very slightly) so that it will spend healing surges during a short rest even if as much as 75% of the healing will be wasted. This has increased survivability by a miniscule amount, but it seems to be a bit more realistic. I might fiddle with it again once there's more ways of triggering surges, but right now it seems to be better to have the hit points than the surges.

Also, there seems to be about a 0.5% variability in the survival rates across multiple runs of the sim. Simulating 100,000 days (10x more) would eliminate the variability, but it would also take 10x as long to run, and I'm just not that patient. :) So when results are close, as they are between this sim and the last one, keep in mind that there may not actually be a difference.

Strangely, I find that the Dwarf Fighter NEVER dies.
Yet in Truename's simulations it died 3% of the time.

I couldn't figure out why.

Looking at your HP results, it looks like there's something wrong with monster damage. At 1d10+3, it should do a minimum of 4 damage every time, and yet that's the most it ever does.

I'd guess that your monster is only doing a point of damage each time it hits, or there's some other error in its attacks.

The numbers of HP remaining are taken after the PC takes a short rest, that's why they look that way... I think.

Here's an example of what the remaining HPs look like after combat, but before the short rest:

I'll change the simulation so that it measures those HPs, instead of HPs after the short rest.

I've checked this and it wasn't.
 

What criteria are you using for healing after each combat?

Does the PC recover after a combat even if he is unconscious/dying?
(I've discovered I had a bug that didn't healed from 0 when regaining hit points)

I also noted that the Soldier has an Action Point
Does he use it?

The PC doesn't recover if he's dying. I suppose I'll need to implement that once we have multiple PCs, but it's not an issue just yet. So far, the monster just keeps attacking the PC until he's dead (even if he's dying).

The soldier has an "Spend Action Point" power (as do all creatures in my sim) but he doesn't have any action points to use it on, so it doesn't do anything.

Well, there's your problem. Your PC is clearly getting down below zero HP, but somehow isn't getting marked as 'dead'.

Yes, I did that. If the combat ends and the PC's dying, then he'll recover in the following short rest.

Now I've changed it so he doesn't.
 

Death Cab for Dwarfie

The "dying" condition and death saving throws are now in the sim. They didn't really affect survivability, but with that final bit of code, I've finished off the basic one-on-one melee simulation.

Where next?
