Wait, were you saying that if you had a 50% chance for five products you might only get some of them? Do you have a confirmation on that? Because at least in the 40d version it only rolled once for reaction products instead of for each product individually meaning that a reaction with 5 products set at 50% would have a 50% chance of giving you nothing and a 50% chance of giving you all of them, but never just giving you some of them. If this has been fixed it would be a godsend.

Just try yourself and you'll see.

You're lying.
Or you have been misinformed.

Because at least in 40d9/d11/d16/d19 the chance were calculated for every product separately.
I can bet everything on that.

Sorry. Looking back to where I thought the answer was I realize that I had misinterpreted one of Toady One's statements in the Future of the Fortress thread. My deepest apologies. :-\
