Hello there, I am having an issue with code. I look through the coding of one of my pages, and when I tested the game, the choices are not showing, when the coding is correct. what could be the problem? ---

As far as I’m able to discern it seems fine, but your formatting got messed up when you pasted. Try re-pasting it, but before you save it highlight it and click on the “preformatted code” button so it’ll keep your formatting. ---

The choice command only tells the game that what follows underneath will be a choice. You need to provide more than one option indented for it to be valid. For example. ``` *choice # Female-master *set straight_female true *set dom "master" *goto female_master # Male-mistress *set straight_male true *set dom "mistress" *goto male_mistress # Female-mistress *set lesbian true *set dom "mistress" *goto female_mistress *label female_master You're a straight woman, so you prefer a master. *finish *label male_mistress You are a straight man, so you prefer a mistress! *label female_mistress You're a Lesbian, so of course you prefer a mistress! ``` Also just a random warning. Sexuality is a very hot topic within in the COG community. It would be wise to tread lightly… ---

Thank you so much for the warning. I may not go forward with the game, as i do not want to offend others. ---

I don’t mean don’t write an adult themed game. Although you would certainly have difficulties if you wanted to publish anywhere. I mean sexual orientation has to be handled delicately. For example I noticed that your choices allowed for a female same sex option, but not a male one. Also to be dominated by a by a female, but not a male. Also there is no option for bisexuality for either gender. If you wanted to progress with the game people would certainly be asking why. I know that not everyone is comfortable writing from perspectives that they don’t find appealing personally, but if you wanted to tackle a project in this particular format you might want to consider it. ---

I like your game ideas, I have thought of similar ideas for SM games, I think it would be quite popular. But I really doubt Hosted Games would allow such titles to ever be published here. Like pyro said, it’s a fine line, for example, homosexual is apparently widely accepted here on HG as many games have allowed same sex courtship. But nudity, sex, abuse are a whole different can of worms, and slavery I would categorize it within abuse.
