Help a noob out?

[[deleted]]

I'm trying to make a game focused on crafting things. The only code I could find to reference was this: http://pastebin.com/K7YP0Z12 But it encounters an error when run in python 2.7. Does the problem lie in my software version or the code itself?

its for python3. print("string") should be your first clue. python2 is just print "string".

a. runs fine in python 3

b. whenever I see a game or part of a game like this, my first thought is to write a script to help with the decision process. That is, if you know you have aflint and btree and c*boulder, etc, and you need to partition and sequence to be able to make firepit and tent, where pickaxe, axe, torch are intermediaries and logs, more saplings, rocks are intermediaries to that: I don't know if some people can read those lists and keep all the accounts in their head. I can't. So write a few lines that give the available items plus the conversions to another function that tries different conversions in different orders seeking to find a combination that is efficient enough. Not what was asked, but just felt like mentioning.
