Code:
var/miss=(rand(1,100))
if(miss >= 1 && miss <= 50)


Problem description: Why doesn't this work, and how could you simplify?

You could use the prob() proc. Look at its entry in the reference to see how it works.

I simply stared at the prob() proc a few times, never understood it.. :/ Could some of you give me an example, please?

if(prob(50))
  // This stuff will happen 50% of the time

if(prob(30))
  // There's a 30% chance that this stuff will happen
