Syntax Error, Persona-like social link system

[Westeford]

I'm trying to replicate the social link system that is used in Persona 3 and Persona 4. The player chooses who to hang out with, a scene plays, after the scene time passes and the player goes home. The scenes always appear in order. (Example: rank 1 always plays before rank 2.)
Here's an example of a social link.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

script.rpy

Code: Select all

label start:
    $ librank = 0
    #This sets librank's value to 0.
label morning:
    scene cafeteria
    "Where shall I go today?"
menu:
    "How shall I spend my morning."
#choose one of the two choices.
#Alone has no problems
    "Alone":
        scene myroom
        "I spent time organizing my notes."
#What I want Library to do is to jump to the library label in sociallinks.rpy 
    "Library":
        jump library
    
label afternoon:
    "Now what?"
#I repeat the previous step so that I can test if the social link ranks stack.     
menu:
    "How shall I spend my afternoon."
    
    "Alone":
        scene myroom
        "I spent time organizing my notes."
    
    "Library":
        jump library
        
label evening:
    "now what?"
    
menu:
    "How shall I spend my evening."
    
    "Alone":
        scene myroom
        "I spent time organizing my notes."
    
    "Library":
        jump library
      
label done:
    "We're done!"

    return

sociallinks.rpy

Code: Select all

#Social Links
#When the player chooses library, it jumps to the library label. Then it should check the librank. if it's 1 then it should jump to the librank1 label. 2 then it jumps to librank 2. If 0 then it should jump down to the librank0 label.
label library:
    if librank = 1:
        jump librank1
    elif librank = 2:
        jump librank2
    else:
        jump librank0

#After jumping down to one of the labels below, the scene associated with the right label should play then assign librank a new value. Then I would like it to return to script.rpy and play the scene after the chosen choice.
label librank0:
    "Yay rank 1"
    $ librank = 1
    
label librank1:
    "Rank 2"
    $ librank = 2
    
label librank2:
    "Rank 3"
    $ librank = 3

Here's the error that comes after clicking Library

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Code: Select all

    if librank = 1:

should be:

Code: Select all

if librank == 1:

Equality checking uses "==".

Thank you, I feel silly now.
