i think the problem is that once the IF part is done, it goes to the 3rd choice

Thank you, can you answer another question?
How do you reset a gain?

Hi again Dara. Iā€™m adding in the background animation correctly, spelling of character is correct. This is the before, during and after.

If thatā€™s what you want and will make you feel more at ease, then Iā€™ll do anything you need babe.

Hi, so i used Daraā€™s hair and lip script template, and for the next episode, how do i have her keep the same look, like if in episode two she picked to have diva curl hair, how would i get it so she still has diva curl hair in the beginning of chapter three.

Iā€™m having trouble with my dressing game label in my story.

@Januva

So after the ā€œifā€ part, you want them to move on after the 3rd choice instead of going to the 3rd choice?




@SkyM

You cannot reset a gain.




@Maybree

Are you getting any errors or is there a problem?




@isa.epyy

A character will stay the same through out the rest of your story once you change their appearance, unless you change them back or into something else.




@loveyourself

Whatā€™s wrong with the label? Are you getting errors?

yeah, so they canā€™t participate in doing the 3rd choice if they have that amount of mess ups, and then it goes further along the story to a certain point (which kinda brings the reader back to the default storyline)

You will have to put a label after the 3rd choice, then a goto inside the ā€œifā€ section that leads to that label

if (MESS UP > 1) {
[your scene here]
goto after_third

} else {
}

[3rd choice here]

label after_third
[continue story here]

ohh. im a lil confused now. How will this code work??

A label is a spot in your script that you mark, and a ā€œgotoā€ leads to that label. So if you put a label after the choice, then a goto inside the ā€œifā€ statement, then that means you will skip the choice and go immediately to that label

that makes sense. thank you

so the label after_third will be after the 3rd choice to make this work right

Yep!

Is it okay if i ask a question?

How would I avoid having my readers getting stuck in the label?

No absolutely no error, the characters just arenā€™t performing the action which is strange

Sorry shouldā€™ve mentioned that haha

Hi, Iā€™m having trouble with making my character reflect in the mirrorā€¦ I donā€™t know what Iā€™m doing wrong, but this is the script and the resultā€¦
