I am stuck on a game I am making because I have no clue how to make random integers. In turing it is Randint i: 1..6 but I don't know how it is in VB 6.0. |

Rnd 6 If Rnd = 1 Or 4 Then creature1.Left = creature1.Left + 300 End If If Rnd = 2 Or 5 Then creature1.Left = creature1.Left - 300 End If If Rnd = 3 Or 6 Then creature1.Left = creature1.Left End If im trying this code but its not working. |

anytime i've used the rnd function i store the randomized number in a variable like so: number = Int(Rnd * 6) and then check the number variable for the value

Should be pointed out that Int(Rnd * 6) will return numbers from 0 to 5 |

if you don't want the zero then just add Int(Rnd *6)+1 |
