I'm a newbie, trying to use Ren'Py 6.13.8 for the first time writing my first VN, and everything was going peachy until I added my first menu choices. Can someone fix it, and then tell what the issue was [in simple english please? I'm not very tech-oriented :lol:

] Thank you!

The context of my script:
menu:
"Go downstairs, and eat":
"Ehh, maybe they're not still sore about the fight earlier..."
jump maybenot

"Stay in my room.":
"It's easier if I stay up here."
jump the31st

label maybenot:

evie "....{w}Or maybe not..."
"Dad still has that pissed look on his face, and Mom stands nonchalantly making dinner, her face giving away no emotion."
"The tension in the room is killing me should I..."

menu:
"Apologize sincerely.":
"I was way outta line earlier, I should apologize."
jump mended

"Remain silent.":
"........."
jump quiet

This is the error that keeps coming up:

Code:

I'm sorry, but errors were detected in your script. Please correct the
errors listed below, and try again.


File "game/script.rpy", line 211: Line is indented, but the preceding say statement statement does not expect a block. Please check this line's indentation.
    menu:
    ^

File "game/script.rpy", line 216: expected statement.
    "Stay in my room.":
                      ^

File "game/script.rpy", line 231: expected statement.
    "Remain silent.":
                    ^

Ren'Py Version: Ren'Py 6.13.8.1675

(I attached my script here as well just in case, the above message was not sufficient and so you could open Ren'Py, attempt to launch it and physically see the Parse error code. The menu choices start on line 211. Thank you again!)

I had a quick look at your script file, and the indentation seems to be totally out of whack. for a menu, it needs to look like this:

Code:

label start:
    "text text"
    "more text"
    "choice?"
    menu:
        "yes!":
            "I choose yes!"
            jump yes
        "no!":
            "I choose no!"
            jump no

also, for the record, when you're posting about a problem on this site, it's better to put your code inside "[ code ][ / code ]" blocks (remove the spaces to use!), so that you can keep your indentation, and things don't turn into emoticons, etc.
