[TEC] Random merchies not so random?

Galanti · 05-10-07, 06:39 AM

Has anyone else noticed that vast majority of random merchies happen to be the 7000 ton Large Modern Split or something like that?( I believe the internal name is KCLSNagara). I suspect it is chosen by the engine more frequently as alphabetically it is first in the roster.

I would think it more likely that a more commonly encountered vessel would be in the 4000-2000 ton range. I find this 7000 tonner leads to artifically high tonnages and is getting more boring to run into. There are plenty of other beautifully rendered marus that I'm missing, and IDing is getting to be too easy!

Any thoughts?
