Relationship Stats, hiding unmet characters

Alright so I have dived into forums, searched and found “how to do it” but when I put it into motion it does not work. I don’t want certain characters to show up until the MC meets them.

of course I’ve tried the *create metperson false / *create person false (on start up)
and done the *if metperson true / *if person true
*stat_chart
percent person

but i keep getting “line x of choicescript_stats: Invalid expression at char xx, expected OPERATOR, was VAR [true]”

I am on CSIDE so the indention has been faitly accurate I do believe, this is my first rodeo but I think I done the *if the right way but apparently I am missing something. Any insights would be greatly appreciated, instead of working on the rest of my story I have been struggling with this all day. I could move on to the other stuff but I figured I might as well get that down 1st before moving on to the heart of the story.
