Game Development ChoiceScript Help
1

At the very start *rand is used to create a dice roll. That number is then applied to the var, such as str, dex, and con. After the player has made a choice the number seems to be a stable number, meaning not changing every time I go to stats. I have it sub to a strength scene to add the numbers need for that stat level. It is a test button after I have made a choice, but the number keeps changing. Will post script, and ideas on how I might work around this.

Seems it was not a *rand problem, but repeated calls to the sub strength added new numbers to the vars instead of just resetting them. How I fixed.

        *if (StrScene)
            *gosub_scene strength
            *set StrScene false
            Str ${ResultStr} 
            *line_break
            To Hit ${ToHit} Dmg Adjustment ${DmgAdj} Bend Bars and Lift Gates ${BBnLG}
            *goto test
        *else
            To Hit ${ToHit} Dmg Adjustment ${DmgAdj} Bend Bars and Lift Gates ${BBnLG}
            *goto test
