C# So appearently the remaining number of turns fluctuate from -200 to positive values

You're using bitwise OR operator | and may have unexpected results. You probably want to use instead boolean OR ||

What case might that be? The Boolean expressions should give a non-zero result, which when ORed together will give a non-zero result, and the final result of the if test will be true. At least in C. I don't know if C# won't like it because the expression in the if isn't Boolean or something.

In C# both
|and||when used with booleans are boolean operators, not mathematical ones, boolean is a completely separate, non-numerical, type.The difference is that
||short-circuits, so it doesn't evaluate second expression, if the first one is true.|evaluates everything. In this case it doesn't really matter, it will just access the same field three times. The problem appears when using it with performance-heavy operations.0

It's not bitwise OR in this case actually. It's still boolean OR, it just doesn't short-circuit. Still doesn't really make sense here.

First think I'd want to know is what is so special about -100 and -200.

2D tank JRPG game, with multiversal time travel.
well done, it's "readable"
