Python "if statements" not working?

[Leehua]

I keep getting an error when it comes to "If Statements" that are more than three that don't just use "True" or "False" variables. This has to be simple but the documentation seems to be contradictory...

I followed this documentation but didnt work
https://www.renpy.org/wiki/renpy/doc/tu ... er_Choices

I tried this one as well but didn't work:

Also tried this one and didn't work:
viewtopic.php?t=33554

I am just trying to have three types of responses to a question like agree, neutral, and disagree with if statements regarding the players selection.

but whether I use:

Code: Select all

$ flag01 = "agree"

Code: Select all

if flag01 == "agree"

or

Code: Select all

$ persistent.(flag01) = (neutral)

Code: Select all

if persistent.(flag01) == (neutral)

all the if statements come back with "reached end of the line when expecting (line of code).

here's what I've been trying to create.

Code: Select all

    menu: 
        "One":
            jump choice001_one
        "Two":
            jump choice001_two
        "Three":
            jump choice001_three

label choice001_one: #Add Default?

    $ flag01 = "agree"
    e "One is Great!"
    jump choice001_done

label choice001_two:

    $ persistent.(flag01) = (neutral)
    e "Two is Better!"
    jump choice001_done

label choice001_three:

    $ persistent.(flag01) = (disagree)
    e "Three is Best!"
    jump choice001_done


    if flag01 == "agree"
        e "First Choice Agree"

    if persistent.(flag01) == (neutral)
        e "Second Choice Neutral"

    if persistent.(flag01) == (disagree)
        e "Third Choice Disagree"


label choice001_done:

    e "Three choices in total."    

help would be appreciated!

I think default or the define will work.

https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/python.h ... -statement

Code: Select all

default flag01 = "agree"

Or

Code: Select all

define flag01 = "agree"

For the persistent

Code: Select all

default persistent.(flag01) = (neutral)

Code: Select all

define persistent.(flag01) = (neutral)

You should try this one, because it worked for me as variables

The $ you can only add this when you are about to use it.

Code: Select all

$ points += 1

Remember, you should define it before the label starts

[Karl_C]

Code: Select all

  if flag01 == "agree":

You need a colon at the end of the "if" line (see Karl_C answer)

As always, let me make the post I almost always make.

default vs. define.

default is for when that variable with change.
define is for when that variable will never change.

Don't use define for variables that will change.
