The @ is indeed included in that but in order for that choice to be remembered you will need to either name the choice and then refer to if/elif/else later using the names, use flags/gains or have if/elif/else in accordance with the point system in order for points to determine scenes.
I highly recommend you check out Dara’s guides for this and choose which method works best for you:
