So below is my current code for a text based game that I have to finish for a school project:
# The dictionary links a room to other rooms as well as listing the item in the room
rooms = {
"Crew Quarters": {'East': 'Ship Storage', 'South': 'Operations Deck'},
"Ship Storage": {'West': 'Crew Quarters', 'South': 'Power and Oxygen Control', 'Item': 'Spare O2 Tank'},
"Operations Deck": {'North': 'Crew Quarters', 'East': 'Power and Oxygen Control',
'South': 'Crew Training Chamber', 'West': 'Captain Quarters', 'Item': 'Head Lamp'},
"Power and Oxygen Control": {'North': 'Ship Storage', 'West': 'Operations Deck',
'South': 'Infirmary'},
"Captains Quarters": {'East': 'Operations Deck', 'South': 'Armory', 'Item': 'Key to POC'},
"Armory": {'North': 'Captains Quarters', 'East': 'Crew Training Chamber', 'Item': 'Laser Rifle'},
"Crew Training Chamber": {'North': 'Operations Deck', 'East': 'Infirmary',
'West': 'Armory', 'Item': 'Space Suit'},
"Infirmary": {'North': 'Power and Oxygen Control', 'West': 'Crew Training Chamber', 'Item': 'Med-kit'}
}
# List of commands for movement or to exit the game
directions = ['North', 'South', 'East', 'West']
exit_game = ['e', 'exit']
inv = ['inv']
inv_list = []
# Current / starting room
c_room = 'Crew Quarters'
# print the game name, commands, and objectives.
print("Spaceship Text Adventure")
print("There's been a breach in the Power and Oxygen Control room on the ship!",
"Take care of the threat!")
print("Collect 6 items to defeat the anomaly or let the ship be taken over!")
print("Move commands: go South, go North, go East, go West")
print("Add to Inventory: get 'item name'")
print("To check your inventory: 'inv'")
print("To exit the game: 'e' or 'exit'")
# Game Loop
while True:
print('\nYou are in the', c_room)
command = input("\nWhere would you like to go? ")
if command in directions:
if command in rooms[c_room]:
c_room = rooms[c_room][command]
print(c_room)
# 1
else:
print('You cannot go that way')
elif command in inv:
print(inv_list)
elif command in exit_game:
print('You have exited the game. Thank you for playing!')
break
else:
print('Invalid command, try again!')
So what I want/need to do is whenever the player enters a room with an item in it, I need it to display the item that is in that room. If the player already has the item in the inventory, and they go back into the room, i need it to display "You've already taken the item from this room."
Where I placed my #1 is where I feel like the code should go, but I honestly have no idea. Any help would be appreciated as I'm struggling with calling upon lists and printing different statements. TYIA!
In helping out someone else with a similar room navigation game, I had added an inventory list that acquired a copy of the items selected in the various rooms. Following is the sample code.
# data setup
rooms = {'Great Hall': {'name': 'Great Hall', 'item': ['none'], 'south': 'Vendetta Room', 'east': 'Kitchen',
'north': 'Potion Lab', 'west': 'Armory',
'text': 'You are in the Great Hall.'},
'Armory': {'name': 'the Armory', 'item': ['Fire Sword'], 'east': 'Great Hall', 'north': 'Treasure Room',
'text': 'You are in the Armory.'},
'Treasure Room': {'name': 'the Treasure Room', 'item': ['Magic Ring'], 'south': 'Armory',
'text': 'You are in the Treasure Room.'},
'Potion Lab': {'name': 'the Potion Lab', 'item': ['Healing Potion'], 'east': 'Bedroom', 'south': 'Great Hall',
'text': 'You are in the Potion Lab.'},
'Bedroom': {'name': 'the Bedroom', 'item': ['Magic Key'], 'west': 'Potion Lab',
'text': 'You are in the Bedroom.'},
'Kitchen': {'name': 'the Kitchen', 'item': ['Sandwich'], 'south': 'Storage', 'west': 'Great Hall',
'text': 'You are in the Kitchen.'},
'Storage': {'name': 'Storage', 'item': ['Shield'], 'east': 'Mystery Room',
'text': 'You are in Storage.'},
'Mystery Room': {'name': 'The Mystery Room', 'item': ['none'], 'west': 'Storage', 'north': 'Kitchen',
'text': 'You are in the Mystery Room.'},
# villain
'Vendetta Room': {'name': 'the Vendetta Room', 'item': ['none'], 'west': 'Dungeon', 'north': 'Great Hall',
'text': 'You are in the Vendetta Room.'},

}
directions = ['north', 'south', 'east', 'west']
add_items = ['get item']
current_room = rooms['Great Hall']
inventory = []
def status():
print('-' * 20)
print('You are in the {}'.format(current_room['name']))
print('Your current inventory: {}\n'.format(inventory))
if current_room['item']:
print('Item in room: {}'.format(', '.join(current_room['item'])))
print('')
# game loop
while True:

print('Congratulations! You have reached the Dungeon and saved the Princess!')
print("You gave the Princess your healing potion and escorted her to the castle.")
print("Thank you for playing!")
break

# movement

print('Thanks for playing')

I probably did not need to copy in the whole bit. Mainly you would want to focus in on the block of code at the end that checks to see if the player has already picked up an item and if so, remind the player that they already possess the item.
Give that a try and see if it meets the spirit of your project.
Try:
# The dictionary links a room to other rooms and provides info if there
# is an item in the room along with its status ('noItm':True means item
# was already taken):
rooms = {
"Crew Quarters" : {'East' : 'Ship Storage',

I have added a new key about the existence of an item to the dictionaries in rooms dictionary allowing to add the code for taking items from a room.
''' I've been working on this for about two weeks now, I can't seem to figure out the logic for the code to properly work and I'm having trouble understanding how to properly pull a key or value from a dictionary. Please note I'm a beginner and some of the concepts just go over my head. '''

I'm having some issues with displaying the item in each room and when user issues get command there is a key error. I'm brand new to coding and this is my first course final project.

I'm working on a text-based adventure game where the player moves between rooms and collects items. 'items' is a duplicate key. When I run my program, it's pulling the last value of 'item', instead of the one that pairs to the location. Here is my code:
#Stephanie Rivera
rooms = {
'Foyer': {'North': 'Kitchen', 'item': 'Pocket Watch', 'East': 'Library', 'item': 'Diary Page'},
'Library': {'West': 'Foyer'},
'Kitchen': {'West': 'Living Room', 'item': 'Ripped Photo', 'East': 'Bedroom',
'North': 'Turret', 'South': 'Foyer'},
'Living Room': {'East': 'Kitchen'},
'Bedroom': {'North': 'Attic', 'item': 'The Shadow Man', 'West': 'Kitchen'},
'Attic': {'South': 'Bedroom', 'item': 'Book of Matches'},
'Turret': {'East': 'Cellar', 'item': 'Ouija Board', 'South': 'Kitchen'},
'Cellar': {'West': 'Turret', 'item': 'Lantern'}
}
print('Welcome to The Shadow Man Text Adventure Game.')
print('Collect 6 items to win the game, or be defeated by The Shadow Man.')
print('Move commands: North, South, East, West.')
print("To add items to inventory, enter: Get 'item'.")
location = 'Foyer'
inventory = []
player_move = ''
item = ''
def show_instructions():
#print instructions
print('You are in the', location)
print('Inventory:', inventory)
print('___________')
def player_location():
#print player's location on the map
print('You are in the', location)
def player_inventory():
#print player's inventory
print('Inventory:', inventory)
print('___________')
def player_input():
print('Enter a move:')
player_move = input()
show_instructions()
print('You are lost in the woods. You see a house with a light on up ahead. You decide to enter the house.')
while len(inventory) < 6:
player_move = input('Enter a move: ' )
for k in rooms[location].keys():
if player_move == k:
value = [rooms[location].get('item')[]]
location = rooms[location][player_move]
player_location()
print('You see a', *value)
player_input()
First of all, there cannot be duplicate keys in a dictionary.
So, if you want to store multiple values, use a list and keep appending to that list.
rooms = {
...
...
'Cellar': {'West': 'Turret', 'item': ['Lantern', 'Book', 'blah', 'blah']}
}
I have to make a text based game for a final project. The goal is to pick up 6 items and to move from room to room. I'm still very new at this and would like some help! I can't seem to call the functions and I don't know how to add an inventory. Here is my current code:
def show_instructions():
#print a main menu and the commands
print("Thousand Year Vampire")
print("Collect 6 items to defeat the vampire or be destroyed by her.")
print("Move commands: go South, go North, go East, go West")
print("Add to Inventory: get 'item name'")
def showStatus(current_room, inventory, rooms):
#print the player's current location
#print the current inventory
#print an item if there is one
def main():
#define inventory and dictionary linking other rooms
rooms = {
'Entry Way': { 'North': 'Stalagmite Cavern'},
'Stalagmite Cavern': {'North': 'Grand Cavern', 'South': 'Entry Way', 'item': 'torch'},
'Grand Cavern': {'North': 'Hallway', 'East': 'Armory', 'West': 'Bedroom', 'South': 'Stalagmite Cavern', 'item': 'cross'},
'Armory': {'North': 'Treasure Trove', 'West': 'Grand Cavern', 'item': 'Stake'},
'Treasure Trove': {'South': 'Armory', 'item': 'silver'},
'Bedroom': {'North': 'Storage', 'East': 'Grand Cavern', 'item': 'elaborate comb'},
'Storage': {'South': 'Bedroom', 'item': 'mirror'},
'Hallway': {'North': 'Cliff Top', 'South': 'Grand Cavern'},
'Cliff Top': {'South': 'Hallway', 'item': 'Orla'}
}
# setting up inventory
inventory = []
# setting the starting room
starting_room = 'Great Hall'
# set current room to starting room
current_room = starting_room
while True:
print("\nYou are currently in {}".format(current_room))
move = input("Enter 'go North/South/East/West' to move or 'Exit': ").split()[-1].capitalize()
# user to exit
if move == 'Exit':
current_room = 'exit'
break
# a correct move
elif move in rooms[current_room]:
current_room = rooms[current_room][move]
# incorrect move
else:
print("You can't go that way. There is nothing to the {}".format(move))
#loop forever
#show game instructions
show_instructions()
This is not the final answer but I wanted to show you the changes you can make to the code to get the program to work.
This is just restructuring your code. It is not the solution. Once we understand what the problem is, I can help add to this to solve for it.
def show_instructions():
#print a main menu and the commands
print("Thousand Year Vampire")
print("Collect 6 items to defeat the vampire or be destroyed by her.")
print("Move commands: go South, go North, go East, go West")
print("Add to Inventory: get 'item name'")
def showStatus(current_room, inventory, rooms):
#print the player's current location
#print the current inventory
#print an item if there is one
#define inventory and dictionary linking other rooms
rooms = {
'Entry Way': { 'North': 'Stalagmite Cavern'},
'Stalagmite Cavern': {'North': 'Grand Cavern', 'South': 'Entry Way', 'item': 'torch'},
'Grand Cavern': {'North': 'Hallway', 'East': 'Armory', 'West': 'Bedroom', 'South': 'Stalagmite Cavern', 'item': 'cross'},
'Armory': {'North': 'Treasure Trove', 'West': 'Grand Cavern', 'item': 'Stake'},
'Treasure Trove': {'South': 'Armory', 'item': 'silver'},
'Bedroom': {'North': 'Storage', 'East': 'Grand Cavern', 'item': 'elaborate comb'},
'Storage': {'South': 'Bedroom', 'item': 'mirror'},

'Cliff Top': {'South': 'Hallway', 'item': 'Orla'}
}
# setting up inventory
inventory = []
# setting the starting room
starting_room = 'Hallway'
# set current room to starting room

#show game instructions

while True:
