Are you done reading?

Hi guys! I am not familiar with choices as this is my first story and I am putting a text backround. I want to know how to make it so you can choose if you are done reading or not, but I don’t really know how that would be scripted. Once you are done reading I want it to return to the previous backround. I tried this which is totally off because I am getting a bunch of errors. Hope this makes sense. Thanks!

Unexpected block end: Did you forget the {which goes with this} , or forget to put the word “choice” at the start of this choice option?

Idk how to take a screenshot with this keyboard but I wrote it!

It seems like you put a bracket in front of the first choice, which doesn’t have a branch to start. You may want to remove that.

}

I want it to loop back in the I need more time choice. Sorry for not explaining that

Ok, I had to make a few changes to that but I got it! If anyone else is having the same issue this is what I did:

@pause for 6

label QandA

   NARRATOR

choice
“Yes!” {
@pause for 0.1
} “I need more time!” {
@pause for 6
goto QandA
}
