chapter:<br><br>In the advanced configuration section, the first example uses both selectorProbabilityWeightFactoryClass fixedProbabilityWeight.<br>Should one use these in combination? Or is it the one or the other?<br>Also, in the second example only fixedProbabilityWeight is used. <br>It seems strange to build a Factory that calculates the weight and in the same time to specify the weight hard-coded for every (some of the) child moveselectors.<br><br>Am I right here?<br><br>Thanks,<br><br>Michiel<br><br><div>-----------------<br>http://www.codessentials.com - Your essential software, for free!<br>Follow us at http://twitter.com/#!/Codessentials<br></div> <div style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"> <div style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div dir="ltr"> <font face="Arial" size="2"> <hr size="1"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">From:</span></b> Geoffrey De Smet

Yes<br>
<br>
What's unclear from
http://docs.jboss.org/drools/release/5.5.0.Final/drools-planner-docs/html_single/index.html#d0e5583<br>
Does this commit make it clearer?<br>
