Rolling until total reached

 

I'm trying to create a table that keeps a running total of points to spend. Once it reaches the max, it stops producing results.

Here is the structure I attempted with dummy text. When I run, the program exits (crashes). Any ideas?

#
# _Test Table
#
?
%Total%,0
?
:Start
1,[Roll]
?
:Roll
1,Rolled 1 |Total=%Total%+1|{If~%Total% != 10 ? [Roll] / End}<br>
2,Rolled 2 |Total=%Total%+1|{If~%Total% != 10 ? [Roll] / End}<br>
3,Rolled 3 |Total=%Total%+1|{If~%Total% != 10 ? [Roll] / End}<br>
4,Rolled 4 |Total=%Total%+1|{If~%Total% != 10 ? [Roll] / End}<br>
5,Rolled 5 |Total=%Total%+1|{If~%Total% != 10 ? [Roll] / End}<br>
6,Rolled 6 |Total=%Total%+1|{If~%Total% != 10 ? [Roll] / End}<br>
7,Rolled 7 |Total=%Total%+1|{If~%Total% != 10 ? [Roll] / End}<br>
8,Rolled 8 |Total=%Total%+1|{If~%Total% != 10 ? [Roll] / End}<br>
9,Rolled 9 |Total=%Total%+1|{If~%Total% != 10 ? [Roll] / End}<br>
10,Rolled 10 |Total=%Total%+1|{If~%Total% != 10 ? [Roll] / End}<br>

Some of the text in the table appears merely for testing purposes. The rolls will actually all lead to separate groups/tables so that ultimately I end up with 10 blocks of text from various other tables.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
 

First thing, you do not need? "?/ End" in every If statement. That might be blowing it up.

You also don't need???|Total=%Total%+1| in every line, |Total+1| is all you need there.

However, a simpler solution would be to look at a While loop....

%count%,0

:Start
1,Test Loop<br>
_{While~%count%<=10,
_%count%<br>
_|count+1|
_}


In this loop, you call it and it prints out the following:

Test Loop
0
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10

The problem is with your

|Total=%Total%+1|

When you use = it is a Literal value and puts ¡°0+1¡± as the value. What you want is

|Total+1| or |Total={Calc~%Total%+1}|

Or you could simply use {Loop~10, [roll]<br>}
