Hi i am new to C Sharp and run into a problem.. my aim is to create a dice game where 2 players roll a dice . when the player rolls between 2 and 6 the number is added to the player total and if player rolls 1 the total gets resetted and becomes player2 turn. my problem is that i have generated a random number generator where i generate and roll between 1 and 6 but i cant add and keep scores of the dice...

Random randomnumber = new Random();
            int dice1 = randomnumber.Next(1, 7);
            int score = Convert.ToInt32(dice1.ToString());
            lblDice.Text = dice1.ToString();
            
            while (dice1 <= 1)

            {    

                MessageBox.Show("Your Turn is over");
                score = 0;
                                 
            
            }

To do that, you can just do:

int dice = 1
int turn = 1;
int score = 0;
int dice2 = 0;
int score2 = 0;
int turn2 = 0;

if(turn == 1)
{
while (dice1 <= 1)
{
                MessageBox.Show("Your Turn is over");
	                score = 0;
                        turn = 0;
                        turn2 = 1;
               
}
}
else if(turn2 == 1)
{
while (dice2 <= 1)
{
                MessageBox.Show("Your Turn is over");
	                score2 = 0;
                        turn = 1;
                        turn2 = 0;
               
}
}

The problem you're having is that you are never accumulating the score of your dice.

//Roll.
Random randomnumber = new Random();
int roll = randomnumber.Next(1, 7);
if (roll != 1)
{
    playerOneScore += roll;
}
else
{
    playerOneScore = 0;
    MessageBox.Show("You went overboard!");
}

Whenever you see something like this:

int dice = 1
int turn = 1;
int score = 0;
int dice2 = 0;
int score2 = 0;
int turn2 = 0;

Your next thought should be "how can I turn this into a class?".

public class Player
{
    public int Dice { get; set; }
    public int Turn { get; set; }
    public int Score { get; set; }
}

Now elsewhere you can have:

Player player1 = new Player() { Dice = 1, Turn = 1, Score = 0 };
Player player2 = new Player() { Dice = 0, Turn = 0, Score = 0 };

Make sense?
