Sooooo my new story is heavily directed with lots of branching, choices that matter and the points system!

I cannnooooottttt find the problem here. I have a PAST CHOICE that needs to be remembered WITHIN a choice? If that makes sense. I’ve been looking at my screen so long I don’t think I can see straight lol.

did you check out Dara’s how to on it

DARA’S GUIDE: Remember Choices with if/elif/else

Please visit my website for more templates and guides! https://www.dara-amarie.com/ FIRST AND FOREMOST, to remember choices, you will need to use the if/elif/else code, which looks like this: if (label1) { } elif (label2) { } else { } if is always first, elif is always in the middle, and else should always be the last one by itself if you have 2 options, you only need to use if and else if (label) { } else { } if you have 3 options, use if then elif then else if (label1) { } elif (lab…

Ah that’s what I get for copying and pasting! Thank you! I think all of them are closed but now another error popped up…

[Dara.Amarie]

Remove those brackets on lines 1189 and 1212
