Mobile Phone Text Code Error Question

[plaul2002]

I am getting the following error and it is killing me...

New to Renpy.

I don't fully understand the code in options which is hindering my ability to fix my problem. It also is tracing back to ast.py which makes me even more confused.

I am using Mobile phone text-message system found here https://nadianova.itch.io/phone-message ... -for-renpy

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
  File "game/script.rpy", line 949, in script call
    call message("Abby", "Shoot me a text sometime if you need a cleaning!")
  File "game/options.rpy", line 121, in script
    label reply_message(what):
Exception: Required parameter what has no value.

Here is my script code
call phone_start
# this brings up the message, first slot is the name, and second is the content
# notice how it has _start at the end, the first one is special as there are no delays before it. use this for the first message
call message_start("Abby", "Hey, awesome meeting you this morning!")
# added an alternate way to reply from the player perspective, this time the name doesnt show if you think its extra
call reply_message("You too!")
call message("Abby", "Shoot me a text sometime if you need a cleaning!")
call reply_message("Sounds good! Have a good day!")
call message_img("Abby", "You too!","images/abby_phone.png")

Any help please?

The “return” at the end of the block that starts with “label message” is commented out. As a result, execution is falling thru to the label “reply_message.” That label has a parameter, which isn’t being given a “what” value because it’s not being “call”ed. Labels don’t “inherit” values from previous labels.

Thanks so much! What would be a solution?
