Critical roll on scouting mechanic
Hi!

I replay this delightful game, and noticed there was now secret doors with critical rolls on scouting that give that sweet gold you need to make your blood-covered, despair-filled "heroes" live another day (and I heared you can even have some nice trinklets, to pair with their gloomy heads).

Looting some trinklets that give scouting chances, I finally had a declic: How is scouting calculated ? And more importantly, "critical scouting"?

Is it a value based on your chances of scouting (10% of your scouting stat), or is it a set value (like rolling 1-10 on your d100?)?

Last post I found was in january, and nobody knew. Are there any new info about it now ?

I only searched through Steam, it was indeed a mistake... But it doesn't answer my questions (or I don't know how to read, as it is prety late here). I suppose the mahs weren't leaked then.

Basically the critical scout chance is always the half of your scout chance so every second scout is a crit scout. This maxes at 50%

I think you missed what I was talking about.
It's not about the critical scouting as "find one more corridor".

I was talking about the probability of making a secret room appear... But I think I just misunderstood the whole process.

The way I imagined it was when you make a great scouting roll, the game rewarded you by adding a secret room to the dungeon, but it seems I was completely misleaded.

The secret rooms are generated when the dungeon is loaded, as far as I now understand it.
And that makes more sense.

Well, thank you sir for your help. May the dice favor you!

Secret rooms are found on critical scouting, but they're only found if they're actually there - the chance of a secret room goes up the bigger the dungeon is, it's 100% in a large dungeon.
