Stupid "global name '_menu'" issue

[moodykillmar]

I have seen the threads with the same problem, and I've looked through my script hundreds of times.

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

After initialization, but before game start.
  File "renpy/common/00voice.rpy", line 360, in voice_interact
    if _menu:
NameError: global name '_menu' is not defined

Can someone look through my script? Maybe a second pair of eyes can find it.

Thanks.

It doesn't quite mean it's not actually there--my bad assumption is that it never reaches that script to load the name.

It's usually caused by a duplicate in one or any of your scripts, or even incorrect indentation.

After a quick look, I see no immediate issues, but as noted above, it is not necessarily a duplicate label. Incorrect indentation in other .rpy files can also cause this issue.

I ended up creating a new ren'py file copying the same code to it, and it works fine. That is rather annoying LOL oh well!

You get that mistake when you have two labels with the same name.
