Question by dkowertz · Sep 03, 2018 at 11:44 PM · dice

How do I make my total add up each time I roll a dice's side?

Hello,

I am trying to get my assignment done for my class. While my teacher has been encouraging me, he has been mostly unhelpful since this assignment is "figure it out yourself" type...

I have seriously no experience in programming; however I managed to get like 80% done.

I am trying to get the total added up every time you roll a dice and whatever side you get, gets added to the total. Like side 11 was your total; roll the dice again and your side will be 12 which adds up the total to 23.

Here's the Dice roll UI along with part of the script.

Good day.

I recommend you to have a int variable to store the acumulated value, where you will add all results.

 int totalNumber;

Once you have one dice result, you add it to the total with this:

 totalNumber = totalNumber + newNumber;

or this, that is Exactly the same:

 totalNumber+=newNumber;

So every time you have a dice result, it will be added to the total. Then only need to show in the text the total.

Bye!!

Yes, this should solve the problem, just one clarification: the totalNumber variable should be a member variable of the class, so that it is "remembered" (I'm sure this is what tormentoarmagedoom meant).

BTW, if your die is to be 20-sided die, Random.Range(1, 20) is incorrect: Random.Range(int $$anonymous$$, int max) generates a number between $$anonymous$$ and max, including $$anonymous$$, but excluding max. So for a 20-sided die roll you need to increase max by one.
