Using advanced choices. (The simple ones,)

So, I have no idea how to use the advance choices. It’s all too confusing. I just want it nice and simple.

How do I make the choices matter (like in other popular stories)? and for it to be remembered in the future and to affect the story line?

readerMessage Choose wisely.

    REVA
(Um...)

choice
“Tell her about the butterfly.”{

readerMessage She will remember!

&STARLIGHT is listen_nod_neutral_loop
REVA (talk_handsonhips_neutral)
You see that butterfly? It reminds me of the one I seen when I was little.

&STARLIGHT is think_rubchin
REVA (talk_unsure)
But I am not so sure.

&REVA is idle_armscrossed_awkward_loop
STARLIGHT (talk_explain_neutral)
I’m sure it’s a sign–

STARLIGHT (talk_doubtful)
Who know’s.

}
“Don’t tell her.”{

REVA (talk_unsure)
Uh, it’s nothing.

REVA (talk_exhausted)
I was just thinking about how are we going to find this lost place or whatever.

STARLIGHT (talk_shrug_concerned)
Are you sure there’s more to what you are saying?

readerMessage Wrong choice.

REVA (talk_armsraised_neutral)
I’m sure."

STARLIGHT (talk_doubtful)
Whatever.

}

REVA (talk_unsure)
Right, let’s keep moving.

HOW TO: Remember Past Choices (if/elif/else)

Thank you! But that’s not what I am trying to do at the moment, I really don’t know how to start off with the advance choices, foe example, I want to make the choices matter first…

All of this is seriously hard to understand…

So basically, if you only have two choices, you would use the if/else and put it at the end when you’re finished with the choices?

Ah ok! I’m slowly understanding. Thank you so much! Hopefully I will be able to get the hang of it!

Oh wow! :sweat_smile: that’s really nice of you !

It’s much easier for you?

I see! Also, there’s an error: http://prntscr.com/jonc9b , http://prntscr.com/joncnn

That’s what that guide is for. It tells you how to use if/elif/else and it shows you how to make choices matter.

if (tell_her) {
#continue script here if you chose to tell her

} else {
#continue script if you didn’t tell her
}

Hi guys,

I’ve just done a script template for a Simple choice in the form of choosing a song to sing in the car, but how do I make it that the reader can choose again once one song has ended?

I’ve tried the goto command but it’s saying that Simple doesn’t exist? (I know with the dressing game that you do goto dressinggame1 or something)

Here is my script:

Choice - Simple Song {

Wears boat shoes with no socks on his feet and I hear he's on a new diet and watches what he eats
    HARPER (sing_dance_energetic_loop)
He's got his eyebrows plucked and his arsehole bleached, owns every single ministry CD
    HARRY (sing_warmup_loop)
Tribal tattoos and he don't know what it means, but I heard he makes you happy so that's fine by me!
    JASON (sing_energetic_loop)
I don't wanna know about your new man, cos if it was meant to be..

You need a label on the very beginning and in the last choice you need a goto

label sing_a_song
