Of course there are many random numbers in several subroutines involved.
There is no "be within 3 hexes and you are automagically connected" rule - 50 metres is half a football field, perfectly normal that one bunch of 4-5 guys may not be talking to another little group that far away. In reality (not from the player-as-God point of view), neither may even know of the other's presence. |
As a former supervisor I can confirm that this is true.  |
