Cockatrice: randomize system

[micomicoa]

hi! this is just a question
since cocka is open source I would like, if possible, to see how the randomize algorithm is used, since some people are arguing on if it works or not.
A link is fine too! :) i found nothing on the net

thank you!

Hi!
Here's the random number generator we're using: https://github.com/Cockatrice/Cockatrice/tree/master/common/sfmt
You can (chi^2) test the RNG running servatrice with the "--test-random" parameter.

If you are comfortable with algs, here's the short version: https://github.com/Cockatrice/Cockatrice/issues/475#issuecomment-65662556

(this is off-topic, but where can I find a list of servatrice's command-line args? they don't seem to be documented anywhere...)

Still OT:
We don't have it in the wiki regarding servatrice or the information for server operators? We should add it!
