[SOLVED] Please guys !

[Soleina]

Hi guys, please I need help !
I'm trying to learn how Ren'PY works, but I'm so lost, I searched an issue for hours now...

Well... I wanted to give choices, two choices actually
So I made my lines, and when I tried to make it work...
A strange message appears

"Only one say menuitem may exist per menu"

I don't know how to show you images of my lines... Sorry I know I'm new...

( Sorry about my english too, if you don't understand. Actually, I'm french. I don't even understand the error message in itself... )

I finally managed to have a screenshot of my lines !



So what's wrong ?

Code: Select all

    menu: 
        "Go with Sterenn":
            #jump choice_2 

        "Go with Soleina":
            #jump choice_1

The choice statement is used in ATL: https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/atl.html ... -statement

I just did it, like this :



But...

First of all you forgot the colon after each choice. Programming is very exact and if you don't have it perfectly right it won't work at all. Second of all (and that's an issue with the example given by the last commenter) the jump statements are commented out and shouldn't have the "pound" symbol in front of them.

Here is what it should actually look like:

Code: Select all

menu:
	"Go with Sterenn":
		jump choice_2

        "Go with Soleina":
        	jump choice_1

You need to add (:) after each menu choice, if you don't Ren'Py won't recognize it as a choice.

Code: Select all

    menu: 
        "Go with Sterenn": # <-- Notice the : symbol here
            #jump choice_2

        "Go with Soleina":
            #jump choice_1

If you need to post code, it's better to copy it from editra and paste it here between [code] and [/code] tags, so we can quickly copy the code and test to find what the problem is.

God, it works !
Oh thank you very much, all of you ! Almost three hours that I was on this problem !

Have a nice day, thanks again !

The commented out jumps didn't seem to be related to the error tc described, it seemed like they knew what the # were for so that's why I didn't mention it. Then again, I realize probably should have mentioned it just in case, sorry about that.
