this is good site.

Code: Select all

if renpy.random.randint(1,20) = 1:

You are using an assignment statement here instead of an equivalence statement. Basically you need to change your '=' to '=='.

Code: Select all

if renpy.random.randint(1,20) == 1:

Do this for all you 'if' statements.

Edit: Also it occurs to me that you have coded this wrongly anyway. renpy.random.randint will produce a new number every time you call it. This means that it is possible (likely?) that no weapon will be selected.

I recommend changing to something like the following:

Code: Select all

  menu:
        "Choose Weapon":
 
            weapon = renpy.random.randint(1,20)

            if weapon == 1:
                "Congratulations, you just got yourself a..."
                jump weaponPaperfan
               
            elif weapon == 2:
                "Congratulations, you just got yourself a..."
                jump weaponShotGun
               
            elif weapon == 3:
                "Congratulations, you just got yourself a..."
                jump weaponRope
               
            elif weapon == 4:
                "Congratulations, you just got yourself a..."
                jump weaponPotLid

(skip some lines here, you get the idea)

            elif weapon == 19:
                "Congratulations, you just got yourself a..."
                jump weaponBinoculars

            else:
                "Congratulations, you just got yourself a..."
                jump weaponCrown

O.o

ok

thx i will give it a try ^^ thx for the help ^^

[Vorsic]

Rather than typing out "Congratulations, you just got yourself a..." several times, why not just put it once before the if statement?

[blueeyes1345]

oh yar...

thx for the tips

btw, isit possible to simuate it such that the result that i had obtain before will not appear again?

[KimiYoriBaka]

you can try this:

Code: Select all

$ weapon = 0
while weapon in chosen:
    $ weapon = renpy.random.randint(1,20)
chosen.append(weapon)

then just add
$ chosen = []
into your init block.

[blueeyes1345]

hmm... i understand the codes above but it doesn't seems to be the codes i need.

the code you gave me is something tat allow me to store a result i obtain from the dice roll and retrieve it later right?

what i meant is that isit possible to simulate it such that for e.g.
on my 1st roll, i got the result 1

isit possible to simulate it such that on the 2nd roll, the result 1 won't appear again.

Thx for your help all the same ^^ i am sure i can make this code to good use.

[KimiYoriBaka]

That's exactly what that code does. Here's how it works, to make the result not appear again, you need to either keep track of that result, or individually program each case so as not to be able to get that result again (which would be really silly to try). Thus, you make a list to store them in. then when you roll the dice again, you need to make sure result hasn't come up yet, then try again. That's what the while loop is for. It compares the results over and over, untill a new one comes up.

[JQuartz]

isit possible to simulate it such that on the 2nd roll, the result 1 won't appear again.

You can use renpy.random.choice and then remove the result from the list like so:

Code: Select all

    
label start:
    $ weapon_list=[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20]

label ContinueStory01:
    menu:
        "Choose Weapon":
            $ weapon=renpy.random.choice(weapon_list)
            $ weapon_list.remove(weapon)
            "Congratulations, you just got yourself a..."
            if weapon == 1:
                jump weaponPaperfan
               
            elif weapon == 2:
                jump weaponShotGun
