Taking Damage

[rolledback]

Any suggestions on fair ways to calculate damage that isn't too complicated? At the moment I'm using:

1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9

public void damaged(int amount) {    Random random = new Random();    double damage;    int maxDef = defense + getDefBonus();    double percMinus = random.nextInt(maxDef - (maxDef / 2)) + (maxDef / 2);    damage = amount - Math.ceil(amount * (percMinus / 100));    hp -= (int)damage;    alive = hp > 0; }

Well, if that's how your game's damage calculation then nothing is wrong.

Don't create a Random object each time, store it and reuse it.
