Does anyone know the scale for the numerical values of WorldMapEncounterRate in the ddraw.ini? I'm trying to set it to half the rate it is by default in the RPU. All the comment says is higher numbers mean fewer encounters, but without knowing the scale I can't tell how much of a difference I'm making.
The default value was 5. Setting it to 100 seems to almost turn encounters off. I don't want that. Setting it to 10 seems to do nothing. Setting it to 25 may lower the rate. I can't really tell. It's hard to tell because of the extremely high variance in encounter frequency on a given journey. So trial and error isn't working.
