# Alpaca Stats

In Alpaca Dash, alpacas are characterized by five primary stats: [**Speed**](/readme/alpaca-stats/speed.md), [<mark style="color:yellow;">**Acceleration**</mark>](/readme/alpaca-stats/acceleration.md), [<mark style="color:red;">**Handling**</mark>](/readme/alpaca-stats/handling.md), [<mark style="color:green;">**Endurance**</mark>](/readme/alpaca-stats/endurance.md), and [<mark style="color:purple;">**Intelligence**</mark>](/readme/alpaca-stats/intelligence.md).

* [**Speed**](/readme/alpaca-stats/speed.md): Determines how fast your alpaca can run.
* [<mark style="color:yellow;">**Acceleration**</mark>](/readme/alpaca-stats/acceleration.md): Dictates how quickly your alpaca can increase or decrease its speed.
* [<mark style="color:red;">**Handling**</mark>](/readme/alpaca-stats/handling.md): Affects your alpaca's ability to maneuver through various terrains, making it easier to navigate challenging courses.
* [<mark style="color:green;">**Endurance**</mark>](/readme/alpaca-stats/endurance.md): Influences your alpaca's stamina and ability to maintain speed over long distances.
* [<mark style="color:purple;">**Intelligence**</mark>](/readme/alpaca-stats/intelligence.md): Enhances your alpaca's ability to use skills.

## Stat Randomization

`STAT_RANDOMIZATION_PERCENTAGE,` Which is 5% is used to introduce variability in alpaca performance for each race. The primary stats are randomized by **± 5%** Range.\
Here’s how it works:

* **Calculation:** Each primary stat is adjusted by a random percentage within ±5%.
* **Example:** For a stat value of 80, the new value is calculated as:

$$
newStatValue=80+(80\*randomPercentage)
$$

* **Range:** The adjusted stat value is clamped between 1 and 100.

This randomization ensures unique performance characteristics for alpacas in every race.
