I have a problem that I cant sum up in a subject line.

Sorry if I'm posting this is in the wrong place or it has been discussed before.
I have a really weird issue.
A friend and I are making a visual novel and in one of the story branches I want to give the player the opportunity to enter some text and if they enter the right word they get a secret ending.
I know how I want to have the player enter the text, with an input line that changes an empty variable, but if you can figure out a better way it is more than welcome.
My issues is that I cant figure out how to get the game to recognize the word that was saved into the variable.
Here's the code I have right now that doesn't work:

Code: Select all

## In the script.rpy file.
init:
    $ word = ""

## In the file for the story branch where the code can be put in:
“Filler Text.”
$ word = renpy.input(_("Input Word"))
"Filler Text"
if word is fish:
    jump secret_end

##Example secret end label
label secret_end:
“These are some words.”
“You just read them, thank you for that”

If this isn't clear enough then I can try to explain further but that's the best I have right now.

I haven't tested, but put quotes around fish?"

Code: Select all

if word == "fish":
    jump secret_end

Yes, that worked, thank you so much. I had actually tried that before and it didn't work but the problem is that i used

Code: Select all

if word is "fish"

instead of

Code: Select all

if word == "fish"

Thanks again.
