Wait, so I need to assign a number to the image rather than a word then? Some_move_trans sounds kind of vague.

Your code looks rather messy now... slight changes and it would look fine.
At first, you should declare the transform and then - use it, like
Code: Select all
init:
image Negi = "magic.png"
transform some_move_trans:
xalign 0.7 yalign 0.0
linear 3 xalign 0.3 yalign 0.5
label start:
show Negi with dissolve at some_move_trans
L "Yo!"
In your example, it also mixed the showing of an ATL image (

And pay more attention to indentation of lines (

So if I want to do a transform I need to definite it before Init? Sorry, please be patient. This is the first time I've ever programmed.

Inside <init:> block. There you can declare transforms, displayables, characters, etc.

Okay. Now how do I set different options for the menu.
For example, if the player picks option A then so-and-so sees one image, but if the player picks option b then so-and-so sees another image. Basically, how do you specify what's going to happen when one option is picked?

A menu command?
I'm quite tired but I'll think about this anyway.
So, you want a different image to be displayed depending on choices? Heh, we were all in the same boat once, so here's something that should work.
Below this line, define another image, like so:
Code: Select all
init:
image Negi = "magic.png"
image optA = "optA.png" #this is just for example, rename it to something meaningful
image optB = "optB.png" # likewise
Then, do this where you want the menu called:
Code: Select all
menu:
"This is Option A" :
show optA
"This is Option B" :
show optB
Alternatively, you can use jump labels if you want a bunch of stuff to happen afterwards:
Code: Select all
menu:
"This is Option A" :
jump optA
"This is Option B" :
jump optB
# some other stuff
label optA :
show optA
#some other stuff
label optB :
show optB
#some other stuff
The jump system may seem like it's more work, but really it's quite handy. Just remember, jump always jumps to a label, and label has be named the exact same thing, see above. It can even share the same name as an image, but as the image is defined as an image, it's all good. This should be good enough. I'm quite tired and frazzled.
Hope this helps ^^
