Question

I setup a class and it accepts and prints out the variables fine in one if statement.

class npc: #class for creating mooks
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name
    def npc_iq (self,iq):
        self.iq = []
    def npc_pp (self,pp):
        self.pp = []
    def npc_melee (self, melee):
        self.melee = []
    def npc_ct (self, ct):
        self.ct = []

It works fine in this if statement

if menu_option == 1:
    print "Choose melees for npc"
    init_bonus = random.randint(0,2)
    char_PP = random.randint(7,15)
    char_iq = random.randint(7,15)
    npc_Melees = int(raw_input(prompt))
    combat_time = math.floor((round_attacks - init_bonus - math.floor(char_PP/2) - math.floor(char_iq/2)) / npc_Melees)
    #function for calculating sequence number
    print "combat time is"
    print combat_time
    mook = "mook%s" % counter # adds different mook names to program
    mook = npc(mook) 
    mook.iq = (char_iq)
    mook.pp = (char_PP)
    mook.melee = (npc_Melees)
    mook.ct = (combat_time)
    counter += 1

But on this statement it will print out the name in the class but not ct.

elif menu_option ==4:
    print "Printing out all mooks"
    print
    printcount = counter -1
    while printcount != 0:
        mookprint = "mook%s" % printcount
        mookprint = npc(mookprint)
        print mookprint.name
        print mookprint.ct 
        print
        printcount -= 1

Answer 1

i dont really understand your problem.

your working example:

mook = npc(mook) 
mook.iq = (char_iq)
mook.pp = (char_PP)
mook.melee = (npc_Melees)
mook.ct = (combat_time)

mook.ct is value of (combat_time)

your failing example:

mookprint = npc(mookprint)
print mookprint.name
print mookprint.ct 

mookprint.ct’s value is nothing because it is never set.
