Hi there,

I have the following code: The actual problem is the "non-quoted" code. I want to get the player amount (max = 4), but when I ask via Console.Read() and I enter any Int from 1 to 4 I get as value: 48 + Console.Read(). They only thing how I can get the "real" input is using Console.ReadLine(), but this does not give me an Integer, no it returns a string, and actually do not know how to convert String (Numbers) to Integers in C#, because I am new, and because I only found ToString() and not ToNumber.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;

namespace eve_calc_tool
{
    class Program
    {

        int players;
        int units;
        int active_units;
        int inactive_units;
        int finished_units;
        int lastDiceNumber = 0;
        bool game_state;

        public static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            int count_game = 0;

            //Console.Title = "Mensch ärger dich nicht";
            //Console.WriteLine("\tNeues Spiel wird");
            //Console.WriteLine("\t...geladen");
            //System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000);

            //Console.Clear();
            //Console.WriteLine("Neues Spiel wird gestartet, bitte haben sie etwas Geduld");
            //Console.Title = "Spiel " + count_game.ToString();

            //Console.Clear();
            //string prevText = "Anzahl der Spieler: ";

            //Console.WriteLine(prevText);

            string read = Console.ReadLine();

            /*Program game = new Program();
            game.players = read;

            game.setPlayers(game.players);

            if (game.players > 0 && 5 > game.players)
            {
                game.firstRound();
            }*/

            string readagain = read;




            Console.ReadLine();
        }
