i have gotten player one to make the first move successfully. now i am wondering how I would get player two to make his move....
I am wondering how to reset the values in my function so i can use new the dice again for player 2. Also, how would i be able to save the location of player one so player1 can make a 2nd move and continue from where he/she leftoff. |

Sometimes simplier is better. You don't need functions when you could make it simplier by just using procedures |

You could a global variable called "playerTurn" That controls then turns. Then make an if statement checking if playerTurn = 1 or 2 . |

you're not suppost to leave any data inside of a function. They are suppost to be clean. Value goes in, value goes out. Nothing gets left inside. as for the player flag, it's really simple. For 2 player game I like to use the following trick.
as you can see, each time though the loop the variable flips between 1 and -1, representing two different players. If you have more players, you can use a similar approach, where you increment the player ID by 1 each time untill you get to the last player. this way when a function affect the player, you just check your global variable to see which player is to be affected. |

I did somthing like that for a toggle option, but instead of integers, I used boolean. So it would be something like this...
