Made a small test to detect whether a hydrogen under fusion conditions was a successful split or if it fused before it could split. Then I pasted the test 100 times for a large array to test in bulk.

    +1 Nice! According to line 95 of the h2 source code, there's exactly a 1/5 or 20% chance of turning into NBLE, so your tests are pretty accurate. :D

    New results are showing me a 21.1% chance for the hydrogen to fuse after 10 runs of 100 tests for a total of 1000 tests. Which also means a 78.9% chance to split. Roughly 20/80, which isn't far off from my initial guess of 25/75.

    Just updated with each cell being individually pasted. Original was 10 pasted groups of 10. Seemed to only fuse on the last in a group of 10, so now it's showing more true results. Will be recalculating.
