Points System Failure

[nagirinara]

I'm experimenting with using the points system for my game to determine endings and such. However, I keep running into a problem. The errors I get are in brackets. Here's the code:

Code: Select all

# The game starts here.
label start:
    
    $ feli_points = 0
    $ ivan_points = 0
    $ antonio_points = 0
    $ doitsu_points = 0
    
    scene bg hall

    g "Points system check!"
    
    menu:
        
        "Get Feli Points!":
        $ feli_points += 100 [Expects non-empty block]
        g "I got Feli points!"
        
        "Get Ivan Points!":
        $ ivan_points += 100
        g "I got Ivan points! That's kinda of scary..."
        
        "Get Antonio Points!":
        $ antonio_points += 100
        g "I got Antonio points!"
        
        "Get Ludwig Points!":
        $ doitsu_points += 100
        "I got Ludwig points... hmmm incestuous..."
 
    if feli_points == 100 : [Expects non-empty block]
    "You get Feli's ending!"
    jump end
    
    if ivan_points == 100 : [Expects non-empty block]
    "You get Ivan's ending!"
    jump end
    
    if antonio_points == 100 : [Expects non-empty block]
    "You get Antonio's ending!"
    jump end
    
    if doitsu_points == 100 :    [Expects non-empty block]
    "You get Ludwig's ending!"
    jump end
    
label end:
   
   "Credits go here!"

It's just my preliminary testing and I omitted my defined characters from this sample for you. I'm sure it's something simple that I'm missing, if you guys could point it out to me, that would be great.

A quick glance at it, I think beneath the "if statements" you need to tab the item over. I need to test it to be sure though.

Hmmm, I'll try that.

Edit: Actually, that fixed that, but I'm still not sure what the problem is with the menu-item. Thanks for the help!

The problem is indentation. Lines inside blocks should have additional 4 spaces (since Ren`py didn`t find such strings it thoughts that block is empty and shows you an error message).

Code: Select all

# The game starts here.
label start:
    
    $ feli_points = 0
    $ ivan_points = 0
    $ antonio_points = 0
    $ doitsu_points = 0
    
    scene bg hall

    g "Points system check!"
    
    menu:
        
        "Get Feli Points!":
            $ feli_points += 100
            g "I got Feli points!"
        
        "Get Ivan Points!":
            $ ivan_points += 100
            g "I got Ivan points! That's kinda of scary..."
        
        "Get Antonio Points!":
            $ antonio_points += 100
            g "I got Antonio points!"
        
        "Get Ludwig Points!":
            $ doitsu_points += 100
            "I got Ludwig points... hmmm incestuous..."

    if feli_points == 100 :
        "You get Feli's ending!"
        jump end
    
    if ivan_points == 100 :
        "You get Ivan's ending!"
        jump end
    
    if antonio_points == 100 :
        "You get Antonio's ending!"
        jump end
    
    if doitsu_points == 100 :
        "You get Ludwig's ending!"
        jump end
    
label end:
   
   "Credits go here!"

Ah, thank you. *finally got everything fixed* You guys were very helpful!

As others have mentioned, it is an indentation problem. Basically in Python, if a line ends in a colon [:] then the lines following it need to be indented. By convention, indentation is four spaces for python. Also for everyone's sanity, it is best to use spaces instead of tab characters.
