ovr018:15FB         mov     al, 3
ovr018:15FD         push    ax
ovr018:15FE         mov     al, 6
ovr018:1600         push    ax
ovr018:1601         call    @roll_dice$q4Word4Word ; roll_dice(Word,Word)
ovr018:1606         xor     ah, ah
ovr018:1608         inc     ax
ovr018:1609         mov     [bp+stat_value], al

because that's what it does here.

As to why that was how it was coded, not sure.

Internesting...

I have no idea what I'm looking at 👍

[simeonpilgrim]

the values 6 and 3 are used to call roll_dice, and then the results are incremented prior to being inserted into the state_value memory location..

[Pajamaman]

Wow, I wouldn't have been able to figure that out. Is this assembly?

[simeonpilgrim]

yes, the x86 16 bit asm
