ERROR Missing bracket! { } please help!

lysithea · December 10, 2019, 10:29pm

Hiiiii!
made an account just so I can ask this,
it says in the error box that "there is a { on line 588 that does not have a matching }"

I’m so confused because my code is right (i think) and it’s a

if(xyz) {

} else { (line 588)

}

but it says that’s wrong

I know this is a lot of code but I’m going to post the entire code of the error so you guys have a better idea, (the code is the same in each choice its just changing the character from ALICE to CALEB because its like a who do you want to ride in the car with kinda scene

You mean right

Scarlet_Sapphire · December 10, 2019, 10:46pm

Hiya!

The error-finder likes to default to “there is a missing bracket on line __” when there’s a different error inside a bracket, it gets all confused and stuff.

(Jem beat me to finding the error but yeah, let us know if it still doesn’t work haha )

JemU776 · December 10, 2019, 10:48pm

Lol, usually I see the dash lower ( _ )

@Scarlet_Sapphire There’s so much code, I’m still going over it

MarissaBunBun · December 10, 2019, 11:55pm

Just ignore them, flag, and let them see their consequences =p

lysithea · December 11, 2019, 12:01am

ahhah ikr there was actually more!

JemU776 · December 11, 2019, 12:03am

Sorry, I went somewhere haha…have all errors on this been cleared or do you still need me to look over your whole code?

lysithea · December 11, 2019, 12:04am

Thank you so much!!! it was this with a combo of me not being able to spell ‘right’!!

thank you so much you made my day!

JemU776 · December 11, 2019, 12:05am

Glad to hear, good luck with everything

lysithea · December 11, 2019, 12:06am
