So I’m a complete noob. I just downloaded this 2 hours ago and I have no idea what to do.
The error I’m getting is:line 7 of 0_prologue:invalid indent, expected at least one ‘choice’
My code looks like this:
*choice #A beautiful Jacaranda, its purple flowers already in full bloom.
*set charisma +20
*set tree “jacaranda”
``*goto After
#An ancient Oak, powerful enough to endure the fiercest storms.
*set strength +20
*set tree "oak"
Is so tall that you still get a bit dizzy looking below even after all these years.
*goto After
Maybe the forum messed up your quote but some languages like CS or Python require indentation for the code to work properly. For example:
*choice
#A beautiful Jacaranda...
*set charisma +20
*set tree "jacaranda"
For this to properly work you need to properly indent your code, as in add some space to represent what is a “subcommand” of something else. The *choice command has choices that use the # as its subcommands, as well as whatever happens in the choice also being a “subcommand”. All these levels require indentation.
To indent your code, use a tabulation (a press of the tab key) for each level.
*choice
#A beautiful Jacaranda...
*set charisma +20
*set tree "jacaranda"
*goto After
#An ancient oak...
*set strength +20
*set tree oak
Is so tall that you still got...
*goto After
*label After
Note how each “level” there is a tab to denote indentation. Just to illustrate this, each 5 dashed lines will represent a tab. (-----)

Check the wiki to know when indentation is needed. Most of the *choice, *ifs etc require indentation.
