Point-based change to the story- 3 endings? [SOLVED]

[Cinto]

I get point-based story changes, but would it work with three or more endings? I mean, that was probably a dumb question, but I just wanted to check.

Would that be something like this?

At the beginning of the script
$ good_ending = 0

$ bad_ending = 0

$ true_ending = 0

Then after every choice,
$ good/bad/true_ending += 1

And then lastly
if good_ending > bad_ending
jump good_ending

if bad_ending > good_ending
jump bad_ending

if true_ending > bad_ending and good_ending
jump true_ending

from here, how would I make it so that it would read as "If true_ending is greater than both bad_ending and good_ending, jump to the true ending? Is it just a simple "and" or something else? I'm not very experienced obviously lol.

Any answers would be much appreciated, thanks!

Code: Select all

  if true_ending > bad_ending and true_ending > good_ending:

Otherwise, it looks like you have the right idea.

Some holes in your approach that can lead to bugs like two or all three variables having equal values or the only way true_ending activates is that if bad_ending == good_ending and does not equal true ending.

Try something like:

Code: Select all

if good_ending <= true_ending >= bad_ending:
    jump true_ending
elif good_ending >= bad_ending:
    jump good_ending
else:
    jump bad_ending
