Guess this is when I say BUMP

[coldwerturkey]

the line

monstats($monpow, $Monsters);

is returning an array to nothing.

it needs to be something like,

$arrayname = monstats($monpow, $Monsters);

which you can then use.

[Beffic]

oh okay. So it makes a little more sense to me now. So if I was getting back multiple variables like $monsterstrength and everything else it would be like.

$monsterstrength=monstats($monsterstrength);
$monsterdefence=monstats($monsterdefence);
$monsterdexterity=monstats($monsterdexterity);

ect...?

no.

when you put variables into an array and return it, those variables put in the array aren't/wont be defined outside the function, only their values are in the array.

(you can use print_r() to see how the array looks when returned). you use something like $arrayname[0] (0-7 since there are no keys in the array) to get a value in the returned array.

<?php
include("../../connect.php");
$Player=$_COOKIE['player_id'];
$Query="SELECT * from Users where ID='$Player'";
$Query2=mysql_query($Query) or die("Could not get user stats.");
$User=mysql_fetch_array($Query2);



 function takedamage($monsterstrength, $monsteraccuracy){
  $Player=$_COOKIE['player_id'];
  $Query="SELECT * from Users where ID='$Player'";
  $Query2=mysql_query($Query) or die("Could not get user stats.");
  $User=mysql_fetch_array($Query2);

  $damage=round($monsterstrength*($monsteraccuracy*3.5)/$User['Defence']);
  print"You took ".$damage." damage!";
 }



 function dealdamage($monsterhealth, $monsterdefence){
  $Player=$_COOKIE['player_id'];
  $Query="SELECT * from Users where ID='$Player'";
  $Query2=mysql_query($Query) or die("Could not get user stats.");
  $User=mysql_fetch_array($Query2);

  $mondamage=round($User['Strength']*($User['Accuracy']*1.5)/$monsterdefence);
  print"You hit the monster for ".$mondamage."!";
  $monsterhealth=$monsterhealth-$mondamage;
  return array($monsterhealth);
 }
?>
