It uses the php srand() function (seeded-random number generation, the seed goes in the brackets and then a sequence of random numbers can be produced), which fails badly at being random. It fails so badly in fact that even a mere human can spot the pattern without much difficulty. In Urban Dead, it was seeded with Unix Time (The numbers of seconds elapsed since Jan 1st, 1970).
