Hi,

I think that's because you're using if-else statement.

If skill1 is equal or greater than 0 then other ifs are not executed...

Try this way:

Python

if skill1 < 0:
    skill1 = 0
 
if skill2 < 0:
    skill2 = 0
 
if strength1 <= 0:
    print ("%s is dead") % (character1)
 
if strength2 <= 0:
    print ("%s is dead") % (character2)

Here you have link to if-else in python language:

Hope it help you.
