I’ve been struggling so much to figure out what’s wrong with my script.
It says:
This is what my script looks like with all the choices as well…
______________________________________________________________________________________
EXT. BACKGROUND
@transition fade in white 2
@pan to zone 3
@pause for a beat
@pan to zone 1
NARRATOR (CHARACTER1)
Hmmm... Which way should I go?
label beach
@cut to zone 1
NARRATOR (CHARACTER)
Should I Go This Way?
choice
“Walk To The End Of The Beach”{
NARRATOR (CHARACTER1)
I think I'm going to stay on the beach, a bit longer...
EXT. BACKGROUND with LOOP
@overlay LOOP to layer 0
&overlay LOOP shifts to -960 0 in 7 THEN overlay LOOP shifts to 0 0 in 0 loop infinite times
}
"Choose A Different Route -> "{
goto home
}
label home
@pan to zone 2
NARRATOR (CHARACTER1)
Should I Go This Way Instead?
choice
“Go The Shortest Path” {
NARRATOR (CHARACTER1)
I better head straight for home,
It's getting late.
EXT. BACKGROUND with OVERLAY
@transition fade in white 2
@pan to zone 3
@CHARACTER1 enters from right to screen center
CHARACTER1
(CHOICE QUESTION?)
choice
“OPTION1” {
CHARCATER1
(...)
INT. BACKGROUND
@transition fade in white 2
}
“OPTION2” {
NARRATOR (CHARACTER1)
...
EXT. BACKGROUND
&CHARACTER1 stands upscreen center AND CHARACTER1 is rear
}
}
" <- Previous Way"{
goto beach
}
"Choose Final Path -> "{
goto ferriswheel
}
label ferriswheel
@pan to zone 3
NARRATOR (CHARACTER1)
Which way should I go?
"Take The Longer Way Home"{
NARRATOR (CHARACTER1)
…
EXT. BACKGROUND
@transition fade in white 2
}
(ERROR)"<- Previous way"{
goto home
}
"First Option -> "{
goto beach
}

SUMMARY:
- So for this part, I wanted the reader to choose which direction they want to go. (it’s not finished btw) e.g. they chose to go home, I just want to add choices to decide how she got into the house. But for some reason there’s an error. SMH. I just hope someone can help me…

~NOTE: I’ve swapped character’s names, backgrounds, overlays and dialogue (all the rest of the script works is just the choices)~
