That did it. I originally used 1-4 like I did for the mode
dictionaries, not realizing that the ints were so important; I figured
they were just keys in the dictionary and that they could be anything,
it was just easier to use ints. Now, I have changed my globals to
20-23 and everything seems to be going well. Thanks!!

Sorry, could you explain why you suggested this? I do not follow.
Because of the if statement "if action_to_take:", I figured it was
saying "if action_to_take was successfully set" or something else
having a boolean value. Guess not?
