Again, I need help, what do I put in the script for a character name if I let the reader pick their own name?? so that it shows up as the name they picked?
This is how you code choosing you name and last name:
@CHARACTER enters from left to screen center
NARRATOR
So… what’s your FIRST name?
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
}
NARRATOR
So… what’s your LAST name?
label last_name_input
input What’s Your Last Name?|What’s Your Last Name?|Done(LASTNAME)
if (LASTNAME is “”) {
NARRATOR
You do need a name.
goto last_name_input
} else {
continue
}
Remember to change @CHARACTER to whoever you are naming!
EXAMPLE OF RESULT:
NARRATOR
Hi! Is you name [NAME] [LASTNAME]?
If you want your reader to make sure they spell their name right, and if they wanted to change it before it is their name in the story forever, simply do:
@CHARACTER enters from left to screen center
NARRATOR
So… what’s your FIRST name?
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
}
NARRATOR
So… what’s your LAST name?
label last_name_input
input What’s Your Last Name?|What’s Your Last Name?|Done(LASTNAME)
if (LASTNAME is “”) {
NARRATOR
You do need a name.
goto last_name_input
} else {
continue
}
NARRATOR
Is your name [NAME] [LASTNAME]?
choice “Yes”{
NARRATOR
You may continue on with the story!
}“No” {
NARRATOR
We’ll take you back to the start!
goto first_name_input
}
If you only want the reader to choose their last name or their first name, just copy half of the code.
I just click the template made in the writers portal but anyhow
After you let them choose it change the characters display name to whatever you named the input
I’ve entered the code for the reader to pick the name and all that.
i mean when I’m writing the script and I want to refer the Character by name in script i don’t know what to put in the script so it uses the name the reader chose if that makes sense. for example
DR ASH
Are you ready, (name)
I got it never mind
