Lemma Soft Forums

I hesitate to look like an idiot, but since I appear to in fact be an idiot, I have given up and I am back again. Right now I am making a game where there are four possible protagonist appearances to choose from. The player gets to decide if their character has long hair or short hair, and breasts or no breasts. Some advised me to use condition switch to get this working. However, when I tried to do it myself it just told me "SyntaxError: invalid syntax (<none>, line 1)" which means nothing at all to me, but I am guess it has something to do with the lack of "True".



However, when I tried copy-pasting the example here, and commented out the breasts or no breasts, no matter what choices I picked, it always came back as prot11.png



So yeah. I have no idea. I am foremost a writer, not a coder or even an artist, and I am doing my projects completely by myself with no friends who can help me. I am extremely frustrated by my own incompetence, and anyone who can help me create or provide me with some actual working code rather than whatever sloppy mess I've managed to create would have my eternal gratitude.

Like literally explain it to me as if I am a five-year-old learning to spell. That's how incompetent I am.

At a glance, == is equality comparison. See old example:

That brought me back to the Everything Is Prot11.png Problem.

I would do this. It seems more readable to me: EDIT: Thanks to Elmiwisa

Clearly, you did not copy it verbatim. Please put up your current code (including your new ConditionSwitch code). There are just too many possible errors one can conjecture without seeing the code:
-Perhaps you put prot_11 on all lines?
-Perhaps you changed the value of the wrong variable?
-Perhaps your first condition always evaluate to True, or perhaps even True itself?
-Perhaps all your image look exactly the same?
-Perhaps you show the wrong image?
etc.

@xavimat: you don't have the long variable, that should be not short

xavimat's method did the Everything is Prot11.
My current code IS posted.

However, here it is again (please note this is NOT the first script file as I've turned that into the chapter selection screen, thus the label)

In my computer it works fine. Surely there is another problem in your code (maybe indent, or other parts of it).

I figured it out. Thanks, guys.
