[Python] Unboundlocalerror

[Ratchet Miles]

I get Unboundlocalerror when I do something like "steal", "bash head against wall", etc in my game. The thing is, when I don't put each segment of the game into functions, the game works fine.

You're missing global statements inside the functions, but really you should find some way of doing it that doesn't require you to use globals.

I'm trying to figure out how not to use globals, can't find any help.

You'll need to add parameters to your functions so they can accept input. You'll also likely need them to return values if they aren't already doing so.

 

Often classes help make things cleaner if you are accepting and/or returning multiple values because you aren't using lists/other Python types that hold multiple different types.
