[SOLVED]Jump to Random Label/Path/Route

[AuthorCSR]

So I'm trying to figure out how to make it so that you are able to jump to a random label if the points are even in the intro.

Right now I have this at the end of the intro:

Code: Select all

    if sakiko_love >= 2:
        jump sakiko_route
    elif yoko_love >= 2:
        jump yoko_route
    elif katsumi_love >= 2:
        jump katsumi_route
    else:
        renpy.jump(random_route)

And this where my Init is:

Code: Select all

    $ random_route = ["sakiko_route", "yoko_route", "katsumi_route"]
    $ renpy.random.radiant(random_route)
 

I know that I'm definitely doing something wrong or missing something, so if I can just have a little guidance into the right direction, I'd super appreciate it!
If what I'm trying to do is not possible, please let me know that too.

jump expression renpy.random.choice( ["sakiko_route", "yoko_route", "katsumi_route"] )

I changed it to

Code: Select all

    if sakiko_love >= 2:
        jump sakiko_route
    elif yoko_love >= 2:
        jump yoko_route
    elif katsumi_love >= 2:
        jump katsumi_route
    else:
        $ variable = renpy.random.choice(["sakiko", "yoko", "katsumi"])
    if yoko:
        jump yoko_route
    elif sakiko:
        jump sakiko_route
    elif katsumi:
        jump katsumi_route

But it only seems to go with the first "if" statement.

When I had it just as

Code: Select all

    if sakiko_love >= 2:
        jump sakiko_route
    elif yoko_love >= 2:
        jump yoko_route
    elif katsumi_love >= 2:
        jump katsumi_route
    else:
        $ variable = renpy.random.choice(["sakiko_route", "yoko_route", "katsumi_route"])

It would go immediately back to the menu.

Can you explain what you mean by the points being even in the intro? I'm not really sure I understood what the first part of your code would achieve in relation to what you said.

Remix's example will directly jump to a random label:

Code: Select all

jump expression renpy.random.choice( ["sakiko_route", "yoko_route", "katsumi_route"] )

It's basically using the jump expression statement which jumps to whatever the string is that comes after the "jump expressions" statement.

In your revised examples, you've set the variable "variable" to the random choice but you're not checking against the variable (instead you're checking 3 different variables named yoko, sakiko and katsumi - which I assume exists elsewhere in your program or it'd crash.

The second example you've just set the variable but not executed the jump statement.

If you wanted to set the choice to a variable first, you could even do:

Code: Select all

jump expression variable

or as your original example:

Code: Select all

renpy.jump(variable)

I still don't get what this block is supposed to do though:

Code: Select all

if sakiko_love >= 2:
        jump sakiko_route
    elif yoko_love >= 2:
        jump yoko_route
    elif katsumi_love >= 2:
        jump katsumi_route

As they'd only check if the first sakiko_love is larger than 2, if not, check if yoko_love is larger than 2, and so on. They're mutually exclusive.

Thank you for getting into more detail, sorry I lacked the details.

So in the intro, you are giving three different options/choices and each time a point is given to which ever girl is favored

For example:

Code: Select all

    menu:
        "Visit Katsumi's mansion.":
            $ katsumi_love += 1
            jump kat_mansion
        "Join Sakiko in the Occult Club.":
            $ sakiko_love += 1
            jump sak_club
        "Go with Yoko to the shrine.":
            $ yoko_love += 1
            jump yo_shrine

So, when the intro is over, if a girl has at least two points, it will jump to her path. I'm trying to figure out a way for it to randomly jump to a path should they all have only one point.

Thank you guys both! It seems that I have gotten it to work. I'm sorry, Remix, that I didn't do as what you said at first, I hadn't realized "jump expression" was a code, so that is my bad entirely.
