Jump to multiple possible labels because of the same choice?

How do I make an if statement for this kind of thing? I want there to be an different outcome from the exact same choice depending whether or not an variable is true or false.

Does the scene (label letssleep) actually do anything?
Any words said, any pause, any screen called or does it just return (ending the game)?
"letssleep" just returns at the moment to prevent a game crash. My problem is that "Sample Text" is supposed to show up before "letssleep" but it doesn't.

No they are supposed to be a basic True/False variable.

what do you have letssleep and that it has a return?
Yes there's a return in that label. The problem is that the game never shows "Sample text".

What is the correct way to do this?

I'm trying to string together multiple variables at once via if statements to make a unique outcome. However when I get to the point where the scene is supposed to happen I'm redirected back into the main menu. if Yummymeal == 1 and drinkcoke: "Sample text." jump letssleep if Yummymeal == 1 and drin...

Re: Invalid Syntax.

For this setup, I would have used pass instead of jump
I never heard of "pass" before just right now so that's why I didn't use it.

How do I have determinant menus?

In my game, I want there to be a variable which, when true, opens a choice menu in a specific scene. if the variable is false, then the scene is just a normal linear/kinetic scene with no choice menu showing up at all. How do I program this?

Does using Ren'Py mean I have experience with Python?

I'm trying to make a resume and I'm wondering if adding "Python" to my skill list is a good idea. Does using Ren'py mean I can do that?

Some questions about timed choices.

1. How do I add a time limit for certain menus?

2. And also, if the player lets the timer run out I want the player to be redirected back to the menu they were on after they finish the "You've run out of time" label with the timer now gone. How do I program this?

Re: How do I program this?

My bad code, for reference:

Code: Select all

menu:
     "Try to calm down.":
     jump calmdown1
     "Ask question.":
     jump askquestion1
     "Use gun." if bringgun = True:
     jump usegun
The third option is meant to be the unlocked choice.

you only need to have a list of variables that are all False by default
default my_variable1 = False
default my_variable2 = False
Where do I put the variable list? And how do I program a choice so that it makes the variable become true?
