Hi,

I'm making a text-based D&D combat simulator at the moment, but I need =
some help. I need to know how to create a command to have the program =
check the players health over and over. Here's what I mean.

integer health,damage,hitmiss

health=3D30
damage=3Drand(8)
hitmiss=3Drand(20)

if hitmiss !=3D1
health=3Dhealth - damage
end if.

I tried putting an 'if' statement at the begginning of my program, =
something like;=20
if health=3D0 then
puts(1,"you died")
abort(1)
end if
But, Euphoria only checks that once, I need it to check it each time =
damage is dealt/received. Please help,

-Thomas

Hi Thomas
Try a while loop
ie
atom health
health=3D1
while health>0 do
    -- do health change here like add or subtract from health
end while
puts(1,"you died")
abort(1)
Bye
Martin
