Got it! Thank you.

Hi, when I try to use the straight hair customization choice it tells me “the hair Straight does not exist” and I have no idea how to fix that. I’m writing in INK. Heres the code:

choice
“Straight” {
@YOU changes hair into Straight
@YOU starts primp_condescend
}

Have you created a character named “YOU”?

label choosing_outfit

LAYLA (think)
(What should I wear today?)

choice
“Coachella Vibes”{

@LAYLA walks to screen center in zone 3

@LAYLA changes into LAYLA_coachella vibes

}
choice
“Cute”{

@LAYLA walks to screen center in zone 3

@LAYLA changes into LAYLA_cute

}
choice
“Comfy”{

@LAYLA walks to screen center in zone 3

@LAYLA changes into LAYLA_comfy

}
choice
“Bad AF”{

@LAYLA walks to screen center in zone 3

@LAYLA changes into LAYLA_ bad AF

}

@LAYLA walks to screen center in zone 4

@pause for a beat

LAYLA
(Is this cute enough or should I try again?)

choice
“Yess girl you look HOT”{

LAYLA (strike a pose)
I slay.

“Try something else”{

goto choosing_outfit

}

@LAYLA exits left

It says I have an error next to “cute” and it says “choices must follow dialogue immediately not a branch”
???

You only need to use the word choice just once the first time. This is what a basic choice looks like:

CHARACTER
Dialogue.

choice
"Option 1" {

} "Option 2" {

} "Option 3" {

}

You also need to add an ending bracket } in front of “Try something else”

It says error again in front of cute saying “expected character or scene change did you forget to capitalize the name…”

Can you post a screenshot of your script?

the rest looks the same except the outfits are different i just copied and pasted

There can’t be a whole line between an ending bracket and the next choice option. Do it exactly how I showed you in the example I gave above.

That bracket on line 460 needs to be on line 465 right before “Try something else”

} “Try something else” {

Hi, little question. I’m doing a scene outside a classroom and it’s supposed to end with my characters going into class. How do I do that?

Oh my gosh I feel dumb. I copy and pasted it from another story and forgot to change the name. Thank you so much!

Have your character walk to the door while walking rear using spot direction, then use @remove CHARACTER

How do you put an if statement inside a choice?

Just like choices within choices. Just put the if/elif/else statement inside the choice brackets and make sure every starting bracket has a matching end bracket

Would you mind showing me a code?
