I'll take a look at those. I used that fix you brought up as well but the main
issue I get after that is:
I'll try to explain the main issue I'm having as accurately as possible.
Basically, I've changed the indentations around but the main issue I get is
that the GetTopCard(sDeck) line is being run multiple times for some reason. So
when I run the program, I get "MISS: You fished up the rank......" multiple
times and my list pHands[0] is increased by several number combinations when I
only want it to increase by one. I also updated that last definition in my main
code.
def player_0_hitman(hit):
for card in pHands[target_player]:
if target_card[0] == card[0]:
count = pHands[target_player].count(card)
pHands[0].append(card)
pHands[target_player].remove(card)
ShowMessage("HIT: " + str(count) + " card(s) transferred")
else:
top_card = GetTopCard(sDeck)
pHands[0].append(top_card)
if top_card[0] == target_card[0]:
ShowMessage("HIT: LUCKILY Player 0 has fished up a rank <" +
str(top_card[0]) + ">!!!")
else:
ShowMessage("MISS: You fished up the rank <" + str(top_card[0])
+ ">")
hit = hit - 1
