So I have 3 buttons at this time. 3 , 4 and 5.

What I need to do. Every time a player chooses 3 4 or 5 he will get a random word assigned to him from a .txt file

txt files are 3pointWordList, 4pointWordList and 5pointWordList, all currently inside AssetsWord Lists

if a player chose 3 points now, the next time its the player’s turn he will have to choose between the other 2 options.

My current issue is that I cant get a random word from the txt files. ChatGPT doesnt help, other questions on stackoverflow/stackexchange also didnt help.

I went with just defining each button to have a set wordListNumber inside the inspector so button 3 has wordListNumebr 3 and so on. Also after the word was selected it should be deleted from the next randomize pool.

Code that didnt work for the randomize:

int randomIndex = Random.Range(0, wordList.Count);
string selectedWord = wordList[randomIndex];
wordList.RemoveAt(randomIndex);

My CODE:

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;
using TMPro;
using UnityEngine.UIElements;

public class TaskManager : MonoBehaviour
{
    public int wordListNumber;
    public string wordList;
    public string selectedWord;

    // Start is called before the first frame update
    void Start()
    {
     if (wordListNumber == 3)
        { 
           
        }
     else if (wordListNumber == 4)
        {

        }
     else if (wordListNumber == 5)
        {

        }    
    }

Its explained above.
