I can’t get this coding to work. I am trying to have two scenarios from a previous choice.
This happens before the coding:
INT. APSE CANDLES - NIGHT
PENNI (talk_agree_happy)
Girl, you are only 15 years old and way more powerful than me.
PENNI (talk_smile_happy_loop)
And I am 19. @pause for a beat @PENNI starts deepbreath @pause for 2
PENNI (talk_sad)
Come here. It’s going to be okay. @PENNI walks to spot 0.821 207 209 in zone 2 AND PENNI moves to layer 13 @PENNI starts hug_neutral_loop_rear AND RYLEE starts hug_neutral AND PENNI faces right
PENNI
I love you.
RYLEE
I love you too.
PENNI
Rylee.
RYLEE
Yeah?
PENNI
Please go take a shower because you smell really bad. @PENNI starts laugh_chuckle AND RYLEE starts laugh_chuckle AND RYLEE faces right AND PENNI faces left @pause for 2
Then this
if (choice_name is “YES”) {
readerMessage Because you told Luke yes you woke up warm and cozy.

You can’t sleep in the same bed with me without any pants.
FAITH (flirt_coy)

LUKE (talk_armscrossed_condescending_loop)
I am not sleeping jeans and a jacket.
You’re lucky you got some clothes. So you don’t know the struggle. @LUKE starts idle_armscrossed_angry_loop

Fine.

You need to name your choice. That’s what the “choice_name” is in the if/elif. Also, your option names need to match exactly as they are in the choice. You have “Yes.” and “No” as your options names, but in your if/elif you have them as “YES” and “NO”
So you need to first name your choice
FAITH
…
Should I share bed with Luke or not?
choice (SHARE_BED)
“Yes.”{
} “No” {
}
And your if/else should look like this: (since you only have 2 options, you only need just the “if” and the “else”)
Okay I changed the first name of my choice to
FAITH
…
Should I share bed with Luke or not?
choice (SHARE_BED)
“Yes.”{
readerMessage Yes, good job! @speechbubble is 151 160 to 80% with tail_top_left
And also changed for the if/else but the story will not go to the next scene. My if/else is an opening for the next scene.
PENNI (talk_armraised_sad)
Not at all sweetie.
PENNI (talk_armraised_sad)
And no one blames you at all.
@cut to zone 2 @RYLEE faces right @PENNI spot 0.821 107 225 in zone 3 AND PENNI moves to layer 13
RYLEE (talk_armraised_sad)
I blame myself! Why didn’t do more when they attack?!
RYLEE (cry_sob_sad_loop)
I am strong! @PENNI walks to spot 0.821 238 217 in zone 2 AND PENNI moves to layer 13
PENNI (talk_neutral_loop)
You are!
And you are still learning.
PENNI (talk_agree_happy)
Girl, you are only 15 years old and way more powerful than me.
PENNI (talk_smile_happy_loop)
And I am 19. @pause for a beat @PENNI starts deepbreath @pause for 2
PENNI (talk_sad)
Come here. It’s going to be okay. @PENNI walks to spot 0.821 207 209 in zone 2 AND PENNI moves to layer 13 @PENNI starts hug_neutral_loop_rear AND RYLEE starts hug_neutral AND PENNI faces right
PENNI

RYLEE

PENNI
Please go take a shower because you smell really bad. @PENNI starts laugh_chuckle AND RYLEE starts laugh_chuckle AND RYLEE faces right AND PENNI faces left @pause for 2
