@YOUM starts shiftweight

label choose_name_male

input What is your name? | What is your name? | Done (YOUM)

}

label customise_male
@pause for a beat

label customise_female

the coding error is with the else part, it says did you forget to put the word choice or put the characters name in all caps

@Jubels

} else (chose_female) {

“else” needs to be by itself.

Also, if you’re using gains, you can’t have a yes/no confirmation choice after the gender choice. There needs to be a yes/no choice inside the male option and inside the female option with the gains inside the “yes” options. The way your choice is formatted right now, readers will gain both gains if they decide to go back and choose a different gender.

Check this out to see how it should be formatted.

Ah ok. I’ve sorta fixed that part up, but now its come up with a new error.

What have I done now?

[Dara.Amarie]

Labels can’t have spaces. Change the space into an underscore.

[Jubels]

like this?

label_customise_female ?? sorry coding is confusing

[SkyM]

No it’s like:
goto story_start

[Jubels]

ah ok, I understand now. thanks @SkyM @Dara.Amarie
