Hey everyone. I have the following instructions for my code and I can't figure out where in the code that the information goes:
First, add a new variable for our current coin value. You can start it with 0 or be generous and start the player out with a few. Make sure to keep this variable within the hero class so it can be called easily later on.
Now, we want to find an appropriate place to reward the player with coins. Ideally, the reward will be presented right after the troll is defeated. To make this more dynamic, we can use the randint function to pull a random number between set parameters. Choose a range of coins to reward your player with, for example, five to 10, 50 to 150, or 100 to 300. We can adjust these numbers later as we balance the prices of in-game items.
Tip: Make sure to add to the variable instead of replacing it.
We’ve increased the player’s coin count, but we haven’t yet notified the player that this has occurred. Communicating what is happening in a game to the player is really important because it helps the player stay connected to the game. The more you make the player feel like they are an integral part of the game, the more they will keep playing. We don’t have an in-game user interface to show the player their current coins, but we can use a print function to alert the player of the newly found loot. Add a new print() function after the troll is defeated and the coins are rewarded to tell the player they found something of value. Make sure to include their current coin count in the text. For example, say something like “You’ve found some gold! You now have 53 total coins.” Make your communication to the player unique to you; don’t use the example. It is your chance to make the game sound like you and to connect with your players.
Note: Make sure to comment your code clearly to summarize what you expect each section to do.
The following is my code: ''' You are a hero in a dark system of caves full of trolls. You have to find a magic spell book to destroy the caves and escape. The game will involve an engine that runs a map full of rooms or scenes. Each room will print its own description when the player enters it and then tell the engine what room to run next out of the map. '''
