Well, this weekend, Lotto has jackpotted again and I need a reliable method of picking random numbers.

The solution: model the Lotto machine in Blender’s game engine!

for that to work, wouldnt you have to arrange the balls exactly like they are in the real thing, and spin it for the exact same amount of time?

Hi!
The number that you get isn’t true random numbers, but on this site:
www.random.org you can free of charge get true random numbers.

The numbers at random.org is made by listing to all radio frequenze’s and then converting that into numbers or something…

“Listing” to “all” radio frequencies? That would require an infinitely broad antenna and an infinitely broad receiver, I don’t think that’s possible :slight_smile:
