Characters's spawn chances is a mess!

[Quad]

So each time in the Explorer, Hide and seek and endless mode (with random seeds, not custom. Even if maybe mostly of seeds can have this problem too.) always got Beans, Chalkles and Cloudy Copter for random characters (and Arts And Crafters, Baldi, the Principal and Gotta Sweep of course) sometimes i've got Mrs.Pomp or Playtime but it's like every 5 games, and i've NEVER got the Bully! Spawn chances should be more low for Beans, Chalkles and Cloudy Copter and higher for Mrs.Pomp and Playtime and the Bully should just be here not only in the challenges and field trip, have the same characters configuration is kind of boring...

[|i.c.c.n|]

well, the spawn chances are based off how difficult they make the player's run when encountered- I imagine that some characters may become more common as more characters are added that could balance out the mechanics further

Beans is a double-edged sword, being able to slow the player down but can also help them greatly by slowing other characters down. Chalkles, while a threat, is also rather easy to avoid. Cloudy Copter can push the player, giving a speed boost if they happen to walk with the wind- Cloudy can also push other characters away.. similar with Gotta Sweep. and then Arts and Crafters, he doesn't even do anything for most the round; when he does become active, he tends to teleport the player far from Baldi and possibly even closer to an elevator. because these characters aren't too big a threat (and for the most part can even help the player aside from Chalkles) they're more common

It's a Bully both doesn't show up too often during a run (spawning in a single place and waiting there for a little while, before being somewhere else instead), he blocks the hallway unless you give him an item, and his only benefit is that he's too large for NPCs to see past. (well, I tried testing to see if that was a thing and it seemed to be a true) thus, he's less likely to be seen

Mrs. Pomp and Playtime don't really give any benefits to the player (aside from Mrs. Pomp giving YTPs if you attend her class [edit: as well as only affecting the player once per life if you attend class]) and could potentially make it harder to escape Baldi, so they don't spawn often

finally, The Test has precisely one benefit and it's freezing other NPCs in place when you stare at him while active, and his negative aspect (2 minutes of blindness) is far more detrimental than other characters, so he's also really rare

Mrs.pomp can be helpful in tricky situations where:
-beans is about to shoot an gum at you
-you need to go somewhere without making noise but theres an swing door
-oneway swinging doors

while this is technically true, most any character can block Bean's gum or open doors for you (with exceptions in both cases ofc)- I did not mention this for Mrs.Pomp because it's not tied to her default interactions with the player, though it is more noticeable/common with her because she's currently has the slowest moving idle speed

I will say one thing: her only bothering the player once per life (well, twice if you're late to her class I suppose) is likely counted as a benefit and I apologise for not originally mentioning it in my post

even tho they base off difficulty, it's still a mess... at least give them more chances. IM TIRED OF SEEING CLOUDY COPTER ON ALL FLOORS!!!
