plz thank u

I'm not too sure what you mean. What exactly is a 'block' and how are you trying to use two dice? If you could show us what your code looks like currently, people may be able to give you a bit more help and direction with your problem. As it stands, your motives are quite foggy.

ok hmm what i mean is that u now in board games for example monopoly, to have a blocks such as illinois avenue, etc rite? u get what i mean? and i want to know if u roll 2 numbers and u use those 2 numbers to move on the total. THe figure is to idicate ur little object to represent u in the game.

If you're doing monopoly, you should probably have a one dimensional array (from 0 up to n-1, where n is the number of "blocks") of "blocks", as you call them.
Each player will have a number associated with them that represents the number of the block they are on.
When you roll the two dice (using Rand.Int), add the result to the player's position number, mod n.

code:

player_position := (player_position + sum_of_dice) mod number_of_blocks

The mod serves to move the player back to the first tile after he's moved all the way around the board.
