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.
