======= Loggy's Freespawn reverse engineering notes =======

=== Yomi, "natural" spawns ===

Friendly dominion and a temple is required.

"Terrains" is true in any combination of caves/mountains/highlands, otherwise false.

"Your cap" also technically includes Shinuyama's cap, both of them have the flag used for this for some reason.

Number of spawn attempts is Turmoil + 1.

If ??End of Culture?? is up, add Turmoil again (so it becomes 2*Turmoil + 1).

While the number of spawn attempts > 0:

  * 66% to just flat out fail (-1 spawn attempt).
  * If (terrains or your cap) and a 2% chance: ??Amanojaku?? (-2 spawn attempts)
  * If (terrains or your cap) and a 80% chance: ??Kuro-Oni?? (-2 spawn attempts)
  * If (terrains or your cap) and a 70% chance: ??Oni#1272?? (-2 spawn attempts)
  * 30% chance per cold scale: ??Ao-Oni#1264?? (-1 spawn attempt)
  * 30% chance per heat scale: ??Aka-Oni#1266?? (-1 spawn attempt)
  * Otherwise: 1d4 (non-exploding) ??Ko-Oni?? (-1 spawn attempt)

(Once a single check succeeds, go spawn the units, subtract the spawn attempts, and then go back to the top of the bullets)

=== Yomi, Oni Summoner ===

Local value = (turmoil * 10) + unrest, capped at 100

If End of culture, double this (and cap at 150).

Doesn't function underwater.

Final % to spawn is (local value * oni summoner ability value)/100

Unknown criteria can also prevent spawning

You get a non-exploding d6 number of Ko-Oni.

=== Therodos ===

  * first it checks to see if you have candles, if you don't it does nothing
  * then it checks something else I don't understand, if you don't have that it does nothing
  * then it checks for a fort in the province, if there isn't one it does nothing
  * then it checks something else I don't understand, if you don't have that it does nothing
  * then it does (candles + [random number 0-2 incl] + death scale)
  * then it divides this number by 3 and rounds down
  * if that number is less than 1, it does nothing
  * This number is the number of spawn attempts.

For each spawn attempt:

  * pick a random number 0-8. If you rolled 8 and there is no temple in the province, set this to 0 instead
  * roll another random number 0-99. If it's less than 5, set the previous number to a random number 0-3 + 10
  * Spawn units based on the first number in this section:
  * 0-3 incl: 1d4 exploding units with ID 0xb1a [spectral hoplite]
  * 4 or 5: 1d4 exploding units with ID 0xb18 [spectral archer]
  * 6 or 7: 1d4 exploding units with ID 0xb19 [spectral peltast]
  * 8: 1 unit with ID 0xb1b [spectral kourete]
  * 9: do nothing
  * 10 or 11: 1 commander with ID 0xb1c [spectral commander]
  * 12: 1 commander with ID 0xb1d [ephor 2845]
  * 13: 1 commander with ID 0xb1e [spectral philosopher]

=== LA Rlyeh ===

If you don't have candles, don't do any of this.

Void critter component:

  * Scale component: 2 * candles + magic scale
  * If a random number 0-499 inclusive is less than (scale component * 5):
  * Roll 2d(candles/3 + 4, rounded down). These are closed die rolls. You get the void encounter that corresponds to this result:
      - If 1-5: 6x lesser otherness
      - If 6: 4x vile thing
      - If 7: 3x thing of many eyes
      - If 8: 3x thing from the void
      - If 9: 5x elder thing
      - If 10: 4x formless spawn
      - If 11: 4x otherness
      - If 12: 3x thing from the beyond
      - If 13: 2x dweller in the deep
      - If 14: 4x: greater otherness
      - If 15: 5x thing that should not be
      - If 16: 1x vastness
      - If 17+: 2x greater otherness

Cultist component:

  * If the province has no temple, get number of candles. If (province pop/10) < the number of candles, use that instead.
  * If the province has a temple, instead:
    * If the province has no pop, use 2*candles. Otherwise, use 3* candles.
  * If a random number 0-74 is less than the value above, you're geting cultists.
    * If underwater, always get Cultist#1639
    * If coastal, always get Hybrid Cultist
    * If not coastal, 50% for Hybrid Cultist, 25% for Cultist#1640, 25% for Mad Cultist

Madman component:

  * Calculate 10 * number of candles.
  * If (province pop/20) is less than this, use that value instead.
  * If a random number 0-99 is less than the above value, you get madmen.
    * If this is a non-coastal land province, you get Madman
    * If this is a coastal land province, you get Mad Hybrids
    * If this is underwater, equal chances of Peasant [which is weird because they'll instantly drown], Mad Merman#1568, and Mad Ones.
    * No matter what type, you get 2d8 exploding.

Dreamer component:

  * Take (province pop/20) or (sloth + 5*candles), whichever is smaller.
  * If random number 0-99 is less than this value, you get dreamers.
    * If on land, it's always Human Dreamers.
    * Otherwise, equal chances for Deep One Dreamer, Triton Dreamer, and Merman Dreamer#1572
    * No matter which type, get 2d8 exploding.

=== MA Ermor ===

  * If you don't have candles, you get nothing.
  * If you don't own the province, you get nothing.
  * Candle value = (candles / 2) + 2
  * If you have a temple, add (8 * game setting's gold multiple)/100, rounded down.
  * Number of spawns = candle value * 175/100, rounded down
  * If the number of spawns is 0 or negative, you get nothing.
  * For each spawn attempt:
    * If this is your capital (90% chance of success) OR any other fort with %%((1 + commander point bonus) * 30)% chance of success%%:
      * Consider candle die roll below for this attempt to instead be 89 + a closed d6.
    * Roll a closed d(candles)-1, and spawn accordingly:
      * If 0 and the province is not UW: 50% for 1 ghoul
      * If 1 or 3: 1x soulless#197
      * If 2 4 6 7 9 10:
        * One random longdead#191-196
        * 2% chance for a mound king#190 commander
      * If 5 or 8:
        * If not underwater, 50% chance for a longdead horseman
        * 1% chance for a mound king#188 commander
      * Any other value [TODO: how does this fit in with the stuff below?]:
        * 50% chance for a knight of the unholy sepulchre
      * If 90 or 91, 1 longdead velite
      * If 92-94 inclusive, 1 in 3 chance for either a longdead triarius or principe (equal weighting). Otherwise, longdead legionnaire. Additionally, 1% chance for a Censor#260 regardless of the stuff before.

=== Asphodel ===

  * first it checks to see if you have candles, if you don't it does nothing
  * then it checks something else I don't understand, if you don't have that it does nothing
  * Number of spawns = 3, or 4 if you have a temple in the province
  * For each spawn attempt:
    * if this is not a UW province, and a random number 0-9 < (number of candles + growth):
      * 25% chance, if there are armed corpses, or always if there armed corpses but no unarmed corpses:
        * Subtract 1 from the number of armed corpses
      * If there are only civilian corpses:
        * Subtract 1 from the number of civilian corpses
      * If any corpses were removed:
        * If 1 + Growth + Magic > random 0-99, you get 1 mandragora. Otherwise, you get 1 manikin.
    * if this is not a UW province, and a random number 0-9 < (number of candles + growth), and something to do with the presence of a forest (I assume, if province is a forest, but sign flags are doing my head in right now):
      * There is a (2 + Growth + Magic)% chance to get a high quality spawn:
        * Equal chances for Mandragora, Carrion Beast#718, Minotaur Manikin, Carrion Beast#1006, Sagittarian Carcass
      * Otherwise, a low quality spawn:
        * Equal chances for Manikin, Satyr Manikin, Harpy Manikin, Carrion Beast#715, Carrion Beast#716, Carrion Beast#717
      * If you rolled a (regular) manikin or mandragora (unit ID - 313 < 2), you instead get Carrion Beast#715 or Carrion Beast#716, chosen at random
      * Spawn 1 of the selected creature type
  * Regardless of spawn attempts, spawn (closed) 1d2 Sagittarian Carcasses if all of the following are true:
    * (5 + Growth) * 2 + Candles * 3 > a random number 0-99
    * The province is not underwater
    * The province is a forest
    * The province has a temple

=== LA Lemuria ===

Getting this was difficult because the compiler tied this in knots. There might be mistakes somewhere along the lines...

  * Requires friendly dom
  * Requires something else to do with province ownership
  * Something = (closed d2 - 1 + candles)/2 rounded down
  * If you have a temple, something = (closed d4 - 1 + candles) / 4 rounded down
  * If there is a fort, add a closed d4 to the something
  * The something is the number of spawn attempts, if 0 or negative then don't do anything.
  * For each spawn attempt:
    * If there is a temple
      * 85% chance if this is your cap: index = closed d3 + 19
        * Otherwise, 85% chance or guaranteed if there is no fort: closed d6 - 1
        * All other cases: closed d3 + 19
      * 5% chance to use index 40 regardless of the above
    * If there is no temple, always use index 0
    * If index = 0: Turns up to 1 corpse into a dispossessed spirit. Has a 25% chance to use armed corpses in preference to unarmed
    * If index is 1 or 2: On land, spawns a Shadow Soldier. Underwater, gives a Shadow Triton or an atlantean Shadow Soldier at equal chances
    * If index is 3: 60% Shade, 40% Shade Beast
    * If index is 4: Ghost
    * If index is 5: If 0 population, nothing happens. Otherwise, make 1 apparition, and kill 100 population
    * If index is 20 or 21:
      * There is a (fort's commander point bonus * 2 + 8)% chance:
        * There is a (2 * (number of candles - 5))% chance that you get 2d3 Spectral Lictors
        * Otherwise, you get a Spectral Standard and...
          * A 20% chance for openended d5 + (commander point bonus - 1) Spectral Principe
          * Otherwise, a 15% chance for openended d5 + (commander point bonus - 1) Spectral Triarius
          * Otherwise, a 10% chance for openended d5 + (commander point bonus - 1) Praetorian Spectre
          * Otherwise, openended d5 + (commander point bonus - 1) Spectral Principe
      * Otherwise: openended d5 + (commander point bonus - 1) Spectral Hastatus
    * If index is 22, openended d6 Spectral Velites
    * If index is 40, 50% chance if there is a lab for a Lemur Acolyte, otherwise a Shadow Tribune
    * If index is any other value (which in theory is impossible), the spawn attempt fails

=== LA and MA R'lyeh, coastal land forts only (nation attribute 157) ===

(For LA R'lyeh, this is in addition to their normal stuff)

This happens only in coastal on-land provinces where the R'lyeh owns the fort and has dominion there. 

"Random hybrid" in this context is units 967-970, chosen at equal weighting.

If R'lyeh is the full owner (IE: fort is not under siege), there is one guaranteed random hybrid unit

Then, roll two closed d10s. For each that <= the number of candles, you get another random hybrid
