I’d suggest doing two separate point systems if I’m reading this right.
One for romance, one for friendship. You can either add points directly to the LI, or other characters named ROMANCE and FRIENDSHIP. You need two different characters nonetheless. Later on you’d want to do something like…
if (ROMANCE>x){
Your outcome here.
} elif (ROMANCE<x){
Your outcome here.
}else{
Your outcome here.
*NOT a required branch to have.
}
Same thing for friendship…
if (FRIENDSHIP>x){
Your outcome here.
} elif (FRIENDSHIP<x){
Your outcome here.
}else{
Your outcome here.
*NOT a required branch to have.
}
Where “x” is the amount of points the reader has. I hope this helps you out
