I've played SAT (both dice and computer versions) as well as many other dice and computer sims. There is no comparison to how the results are generated and you would not want to see the hundreds (and here I am not exaggerating) of variable checks that go into producing a result in a computer game. While not as complex as an FOF algorithm, I'm certain OOTP checks at least dozens of variables before it produces a result for each batter.
How those variables interact is only known for certain by Markus, and he's not telling
