Custom Name error

[InsanePenguin]

Hello, im trying to have the players in my game have the option to name their character unless they want to. please advise on the following code

# People
define m = Character("Mia")
define a = Character("Allison")
define k = Character("Kira")
define v = Character("Veronica")
define x = Character("[player_name]")

# The game starts here.

label start:
scene black
"Would you like to choose your name?"
menu:
"Yes":
jump choosename
return
"No":
jump introscene
return

label choosename:
scene black
$ player_name = renpy.input ("What is your name?")
$ player_name = player_name.strip()
if player_name == "":
$ player_name ="Adam"


label introscene:

scene misa

m "Pleased to meet you, %(player_name)s"

x "Got a name!!"

m "This is a test"

the game picks up the custom name that the player inputs but I get an error if they choose no in the options

That because if they skip, the player_name variable is not declared at all.

Add this in your code just after the characters and it'll fix it:

Code: Select all

default player_name = "Adam"

You can also remove the line

Code: Select all

$ player_name = "Adam"
