This is the code it occurs in (it comes right after a jumpscare) -

Code: Select all

text "Bad ending"
        
        text "Maybe you should try agian."
        
        renpy.full_restart(transition=False, label='_invoke_main_menu', target='_main_menu')
        
        label falsepath4:
            
        "I kissed him back as I wrapped my arms around him."

renpy.full_restart is a python statement so you need to put the $ in front of it

Code: Select all

$ renpy.full_restart(transition=False, label='_invoke_main_menu', target='_main_menu')

renpy.full_restart will take a player back to the main menu, but why aren't you just using a return?
Also, labels should be indented all the way left, with no spaces.

Thanks for the help- I'm using restart as I want to give the jumpscares a more kind of spooky feel to them.

Yes, I can see what you're trying to achieve, and a return will do exactly the same thing.
There's no harm in using it, but that full restart function is meant for other uses, like fully restarting Ren'py, without needing to close and relaunch the game, resetting any game state and returning a player to the very top of the call stack.
