It's my understanding that in the mapgroupproto.xml file, when setting up "dispatch" groups, there is an overall 'dechance' value that denotes the probability of that dispatch spawning anything, then within that dispatch group there are nested proxies each with their own dechance that act as a kind of ratio for how likely one of the items is to spawn within that dispatch group.
However, regardless of the dechance values set, every item has a 100% chance of spawning every time.
