    <p>It sounds like you are missing out on some of the awesome utility of object oriented programming, similar to what Marcin said you might what to make a series of classes like so:</p> <pre><code>class Weapon: def __init__(self, name, armor_hp_bonus = 0, skill_hp_bonus = 0): self.skill_hp_bonus = skill_hp_bonus self.armor_hp_bonus = armor_hp_bonus self.__name__ = name class Hero: def __init__(self): self.basehp = 10 self.armorhp = 0 self.skillhp = 0 self.righthand = None self.inventory = [] def choose_weapon(self): while True: for idx, item in enumerate(self.inventory): print '{i}: {weapon}'.format(i=idx, weapon=item.__name__) choice = raw_input("Pick your weapon: ") try: self.equip(self.inventory.pop(int(choice))) return except IndexError: print "Invalid choice" continue def equip(self, weapon): if self.righthand: print "Weapon already equipped to right hand!" return else: self.righthand = weapon self.armorhp += weapon.armor_hp_bonus self.skillhp += weapon.skill_hp_bonus def unequip(self): if not self.righthand: print "No weapon to unequip!" return self.skillhp -= self.righthand.skill_hp_bonus self.armorhp -= self.righthand.armor_hp_bonus self.inventory.append(self.righthand) self.righthand = None def acquire_weapon(self, weapon): self.inventory.append(weapon) def calc_effective_hp(self): return self.basehp + self.skillhp + self.armorhp </code></pre> <p>A class lets you keep all the variables you are having trouble keeping track of in one place. The skill bonus of one weapong will never get confused with the skill bonus of another weapon this way, because the variable storing that information is contained within the object. One you set up your classes correctly, the rest of your code is a lot shorter and cleaner because you can just call a method and rest assured that everything is being done correctly:</p> <pre><code>sword_of_1000_truths = Weapon('sword_of_1000_truths', skill_hp_bonus = 1337) gandalf = Hero() gandalf.acquire_weapon(sword_of_1000_truths) gandalf.choose_weapon() &gt;&gt; 0 sword_of_1000_truths &gt;&gt; Pick your weapon: 0 print gandalf.calc_effective_hp() &gt;&gt; 1347 gandalf.unequip() print gandalf.calc_effective_hp() &gt;&gt; 10 </code></pre> <p>The methods such as <code>equip</code> and <code>unequip</code> make sure to increment and decrement the <code>Hero</code>'s hp correctly, while keeping track of the logic of the game, i.e. you cant have two weapons in one hand, and you cant unequip a weapon if you don't have one equipped etc. This helps eliminate those ugly 100 lines of code you mention.</p> <p>Good luck! Hope this helps</p>

    1. COAfter playing with this a little bit, i'm having a little trouble getting a name selection going, my goal is to get a name for the character then be able to call upon it later in interaction with an npc, would i add a name sort of thing to the hero class? i assume that's what i would do but i'm having trouble getting it to work for me, any input?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
