In [[Telefang 1]], random events rely on a random number generator. It is generated using the following variables:

* The frame counter, located at <tt>0x3C30</tt> in RAM. This is an 8-bit number, and it increments by 1 for every frame that passes (1 frame = 1/60 second). However, it temporarily freezes in certain situations, mainly when the game has to load screens. The frame counter makes random actions frame dependent.
* Seed 1, located at <tt>0xC41F</tt> in RAM. This value is also an 8-bit number, and it changes every time a random event occurs, and its value depends on the current value of the frame counter, as well as the current values of both seeds.
* Seed 2, located at <tt>0xC420</tt> in RAM. This 8-bit value functions similarly to Seed 1, although it influences the randomly generated number more than Seed 1.
* Seed sum, the 8-bit sum of the two seeds, located at <tt>0xC400</tt> in RAM. '''This is the randomly generated number''', most directly used to determine random events.

==Seed calculation==
Note: Original thread here: http://s15.zetaboards.com/Tulunk_Village/topic/6967791/1/

First, the game takes the current value of the frame counter and uses a formula to calculate a new 16-bit number, which is later added to the seeds.

F = (Frame counter * 256) + ((int(((<span class="explain" title="Swaps the nibbles in the 8-bit value (ex. 9D becomes D9).">Swap nibbles(Frame counter)</span> + 1) mod 256) / 2) + 135) mod 256)

Next, the game calculates a number based on the current value of the two seeds. This formula is simpler:

S = Seed 1 * 256 + Seed 2

To obtain seed 1:

Seed 1<sub>new</sub> = <span class="explain" title="Lower 8 bits of F+S">((F+S) mod 256)</span>

To obtain seed 2:

Seed 2<sub>new</sub> = <span class="explain" title="Upper 8 bits of F+S">(int(((F+S) mod 65536)/256))</span> xor <span class="explain" title="Lower 8 bits of F+S">((F+S) mod 256)</span>

The seeds are then added together (reduced to 8 bits), and this is the randomly generated number.
