Like this:

if (weaponfired) {this.result=random(1,100)
if (this.result<=20) {
message Uh oh it was less than or equal to 20;
}
else if (this.result<=50) {
Oh thank god it was higher than or equal to 50;
}

I just did that off the top of my head but its the basic idea.

rmemeber to use int(var); to round the variable, if you don't you could have some kind of wierd garbly goop for a script. Hope you don't ever become a big scripter though Poogle, cause frankly, neopets sucks the big one

ap=random(0,100) would make the ap bar mad becuase it would wind up with
ap=42.45684574562341256

ap=int(random(0,101))
(And yes 101, integers always round down)
