I am entering the unexpected writers contest, and am trying to add the gem choices but it’s coming up with errors. Is anyone able to help me fix it? :T

I might be wrong but maybe give the part after the dark purple line it’s own line and see if that work

I would have to look on my portal then when I get back home .
On the screenshot you’ve provided, the only error I see at the moment is the lack of gem choice title in brackets.
Gem choices need a title.
So it should be like:
choice (TitleHere)

You still need the < > for “< GEMS:5 >” (Close the gaps, as I had to open it so that the forums posted it properly.)

I’m having a detailed look to see where else your script could’ve possibly gone wrong, bare with me. 
Edit: Could you possibly screenshot from lines 2825 to 2999, if it lets you?! Just so we can see if anything else is actually causing the error?!

my story has a female LI route and Male LI route- I’m working on the female one first at the moment.
(dw choice isn’t in another choice or anything.)
Don’t forget “choice” should always be on a line of it’s own. (Minus titles.)
But on line 2861, you have another choice to fix.
It should be:
choice
< PREMIUM > “Yes”{
goto Porter_custom_start
}“No.”{
goto Porter_custom_end
}
Try that (and ensure that all other choices are fixed too.) And then let me know. 
(If you’re copying and pasting from here, then remember to close the gaps between < > and the word “PREMIUM”.)
I dont think the space between “blah blah” { matters though, cause I’ve got daras templates for customising on my script and they’ve got the spaces in them and work fine?
see. ^^
No, the spaces between “Whatever the choice is” and { doesn’t matter, I tend to do them both ways!
For example… I can literally do:
choice
“Yes” {
} “No” {
}
or
choice
“Yes”{
}“No”{
}
And both work for me, so I’m not sure why someone advised you to close the gaps on that. 
But has the error finally disappeared yet?!
nope 
should I PM you my whole script lol?

Did you fix all of the choices within the story?!
By that I mean, did you ensure that the word choice always has a line of its own?!
Yes, please. I think that might be best.
ill double check
