Hey, I am trying to create my text adventure geared towards all of the frequent posters on daniweb's python forum, just alittle something to have fun with. But, it isn't going as planned. I used vegaseat's suggestion for combat, shuffling lists randomly to randomize hit/miss results. I think I did it wrong. I got many errors, I think I fixed most of them, except for the "expected an indent block" message I got (I noted the line with a comment in the source). So, if any of you would like to help me with this project I would appreciate it. I will give full credit to ALL who contribute to this project in the source as well as in the credits of the program itself. Here is the code I am working with:
# Decided to make a simpler Text based game
# will try to use classes and functions primarily
# I am going to try vegaseat's suggestion for combat
# creating a hit list for player and monster
# then using random.shuffle to mix it up
# where list = [1, 0, 2, 0, 3, 0, 0, 1]
# and where 0 = miss
# 1 = minor boo-boo
# 2 = black and blue
# 3 = ER visit and possible stiches
# (minor to major damage) lol
# this is going to be a text based tournament simulator
# "TEXT KWON DO" v1.0
# by Franki
# ten victories to win the competition!
