Further analysis: The program gets to a point where the whohelps computation returns a value that apparently causes the conditional test to continually fail, it seems to switch between 2 seemingly random values, in other words you get into a infinite loop at 732: while(chanceofhelpunit<7 && assisting[k]>0 && pointsuntilnow < pointsperPlayer) I would therefore assume that something inside the final if statement is responsible for modifying the expression in the if but as the program gets to a point where code inside the if is never executed the program loops forever. There is also lots of random number generation going on which can cause all sorts of unexpected results. The code is quite hard to read, you can make it easier to read by generating interim values and storing them in variables, you can then place a watch on the variables to make it easier to figure out whats going on. So, to give you a starting point, change 735: if (stillthere[help[whohelps]]!=0&&whohelps!=assisting[k]+1+helpstillyet[k]) to if(true) and look at the output. and remember, "first make it right, then make it fast" lipska -- Lipska the Kat©: Troll hunter, sandbox destroyer and farscape dreamer of Aeryn Sun
