Description Daniel Pfenniger 2016-04-22 16:04:09 UTC

The initial board is always the same, and the sequence is not random. 


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start kshisen
2. Note the board
3. repeat

Comment 1 Frederik Schwarzer 2016-04-23 11:09:40 UTC

Can you please check what the corresponding KDE version is? 15.12? 16.04?

Comment 2 Frederik Schwarzer 2016-04-23 11:28:48 UTC

Since I do not see this kind of behaviour in either 15.12, 16.14 or master branch, please also state your settings from the General settings page located at:
Settings -> Configure KShisen ... -> General

Thank you.

Comment 3 Daniel Pfenniger 2016-04-23 17:56:15 UTC

Since in kshisen (Help/About KDE)  no KDE version is indicated I infer from 
the installed Fedora package libkdegames-15.12.3-1.fc23.x86_64
that current KDE version is 15.12. 

The kshisen configuration is: 
1) General/gravity is on and the 3 other options are off. 
    Board difficulty: Hard
    Piece Removal Speed: Fast
    Board Size: 30x16
2) Tiles: Tradional
3) Background: Egyptian

Comment 4 Frederik Schwarzer 2016-04-23 19:44:47 UTC

Weird. I still cannot reproduce.

What happens if you press the "New" button in the tool bar? Does it shuffle then?

Comment 5 Arne Spiegelhauer 2016-04-23 19:51:55 UTC

I have observed this in Mageia Cauldron as well. I believe it is caused by a regression in Krandom (kcoreaddons 5.21.0).
See bug 362161

Thanks Arne for pointing to the issue.
And thanks Daniel for the report.

@Frederik:  Pressing "New" n times gives n new boards following the same sequence. 

@Anne:  Indeed it would make sense, the package I have is kf5-kcoreaddons-5.21.0-1.fc23.x86_64
