[Solved] Comparing Specific Content within an Index of Two Lists (if list_a[0] == pie && list_b == cherry)

[shrexylexy]

Hello!

I'm fairly new to Ren'PY and working within Python for these projects. I am looking to see if there is a way to compare specific indexes of two different lists.

Essentially I am creating a class scheduler and need to obtain the order of the classes. I have the schedule creator as a drag and drop minigame where you drag classes you want into the available slots. I want to make an order out of which classes they put in specific spots.

I figure in an amalgamation of languages it would look something like this:

If (list_classes[0] == "Math") && (list_time[0] == "9AM"){
jump Math9am
}

However, I haven't been able to find anything in the handbook or other posts that help with this.

Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!!!

For that specific use case: jump expression list_classes[0]+list_time[0] https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/label.ht ... -statement

In general, the python syntax for what you put down would simply be

Code: Select all

if list_classes[0] == "Math" and list_time[0] == "9AM":
    jump Math9AM

Amazing, thank you!! That's a lot simpler than I thought. I was definitely overcomplicating things. I'll try it out and update with my progress in case future people have the same problems I did

Hi all!
this is what I have for my code:

Code: Select all

 def orderofclasses():
        if order[0] == "00 piece" and time[0] == "00": #if the first piece is the first in the list and ison the first time droppable
            jump Cowboy1

It keeps telling me that the jump Cowboy1 has a syntax error. and points to the end of the line as though it were expecting a semicolon or something. I can't figure out what it wants as the code in the Renpy documentation also appears to have their jump statements lined up the way I have mine.

Am I missing something obvious?

jump Cowboy1 is a RenPy statement and cannot be used in Python block. Either make it into RenPy code, or use Python equivalent: renpy.jump("label_name")

Thank you!! I'm now not receiving any errors. Can't believe I missed that haha
