(Limelight) Script ignores commands for reader to choose name

The title says it all. But here’s the command I’m using:

EXT. FLOWER GARDEN WINTER - DAY
@YOU stands screen left AND YOU faces right AND YOU is idle_happy_loop AND zoom reset AND cut to zone 1

label first_name_input
input What’s Your First Name?|What’s Your First Name?|Done(NAME)
if (NAME is “”) {
NARRATOR
You do need a name.
goto first_name_input
} else {
continue
}

The web previewer doesn’t show input codes. If you want to test this code out, you will have to test your story in the app.

Omg thanks! How do you say their name in passing dialog?

Take “NAME” and wrap straight brackets around it:

CHARACTER
Hi, [NAME]! What’s up!
