	*'''''The amount of randomness''''': in a default "double speed" scaling you can get more unlucky with more missions shortly after each other with an exhausted soldier roster. In contrast, a good mission, for example where you grab three meld canisters and lots of resources, can have a major positive effect. However there is a variable in an .ini file for how clumped up missions are.		*'''''The amount of randomness''''': in a default "double speed" scaling you can get more unlucky with more missions shortly after each other with an exhausted soldier roster. In contrast, a good mission, for example where you grab three meld canisters and lots of resources, can have a major positive effect. However there is a variable in an .ini file for how clumped up missions are. Higher numbers mean missions of each type will tend to occur on a more regular, "clockwork" basis based on alien supply and aggro. Lower numbers mean more clumping of missions, more variance in missions per month, and longer dry spells for each mission type.
