Rock Paper Scissors?

[Hakura0]

Hi, I'm fairly new to Ren'Py, though it's not my first time looking into the program. At the moment I'm more or less experimenting at the moment, so I fugred I'd try to see if I could make a simple Rock paper scissors game for my little brother.

I read through some threads and the tutorials on the main page a bit, and I've got it working.

I've set it up so that it keeps track of the wins, losses and draws, easter eggs and certain counts of the score, etc.

This is the code I'm using:

"Rock":
if wins < max(losses, draws):
$ wins += 1
show scissors at right

c "Rock beats scissors..."
jump yc

elif wins > max(losses, draws):
$ draws += 1
show rock at right

c "Rock and Rock.. Draw."
jump yc


else:
$ losses += 1
show paper at right

c "Paper covers Rock YES!!"
jump yc

"Paper":
if draws < max(losses, wins):
$ wins += 1
show rock at right

c "Paper covers rock..."
jump yc

elif draws > max(losses, wins):
$ draws += 1
show paper at right

c "Paper and paper, draw."
jump yc

else:
$ losses += 1
show scissors at right

c "Scissors cut paper!"
jump yc

"Scissors":
if losses > max(wins, draws):
$ wins += 1
show paper at right

c "Scissors cut paper, drat."
jump yc

elif losses < max(wins, draws):
$ draws += 1
show scissors at right

c "Scissors and scissors...draw."
jump yc

else:
$ losses += 1
show rock at right

c "Rock beats scissors!"
jump yc

My question is if there's a better code I could use, or if this is pretty much it.

So basically, this game automatically balances your wins and losses? ô_o...

I don't think it's such a good idea to let the amount of wins, losses and draws to determine the outcome of a match. Maybe you should use renpy.random.randint(1, 3) instead. The following code might help you to get the idea (might have some mistakes in there so don't just copy and paste)

Code: Select all

# return a random integer between 1 and 3 with 1 as rock, 2 as scissors, 3 as cloth 
$ handsign = renpy.random.randint(1, 3)

rock:
  if handsign == 1:
  jump draw
  elif handsign == 2:
  jump win
  else: 
  jump loss

Thanks, I think that's exactly what I needed. I wasn't sure if there was a way to have it randomize a number, and that was all I could think of.

Ok, I tried it, looked the code up a few other places, but whatever I do I end up with

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'random'

What am I doing wrong?

I'm not sure either... I had that same problem, but I got you a script finished, without the problem. I hope you have use of it. It works for me, I guess! xD

EDIT: I haven't added any pictures, texts telling what is happening ("Scissors cut paper" etc.) or easter eggs, so that'll be your homework! ;P

Thanks a bunch. I umm...*cough* found the problem. I wasn't putting the line in the right place. So luckily I didn't need to transplant everything, just re-write a few lines.

So I'll simplify this message: The script file was very helpful.

Well, that's great! That must have been the problem with my test too. xD

PS. I hope your little brother enjoys your game! Because my little brother doesn't even want to look at my games... ^^;

Great job Chisakura, thanks
