The reason this is happening is because of this part of the code:
*if (female = false)
It's a bright new day and you are in the middle of one of your lessons
*page_break
*goto boy
*label boy
[i]At the training grounds[/i]
You test if the MC is not female in order to see if the code should jump to the boy label, but you don’t test to see if they actually are female until after the boy section.
So, what happens if you’re playing as a girl is that the *if statement evaluates as false (as it should) and you don’t jump to the boy label via the *goto…but then you immediately fall into the boy section anyway, because that’s the very next section of the code.
Then, because you’re in the boy section, you end up skipping past all the code that tests if your MC is, in fact, female, because boy ends with a *goto straight to freetime.
What you need to do is move the code that evaluates if the MC is female in the same place as the code that evalutes if the MC is male, so you correctly jump to the right segment of the story, like so:
*if (female = false)
It's a bright new day and you are in the middle of one of your lessons
*page_break
*goto boy
*if (female = true)
It's a bright new day and you are in the middle of one of your lessons
*page_break
*goto w
Hey, my American students do speak like that (California), but oh gosh, thank you for pointing it out-I did felt weird when I read it, might I add, I was a little tipsy when I wrote it, I mean I’m trying to get better at writing, and I wanted ser Baldwin to sound dumb in MC’s eyes cause he will surely cause or well be responsible for some drama between the siblings.
Thank you, also I was working around it, so the continuation of the demo includes scenes in which female MC’s can have lessons in warfare as well as male MC’s can have embroidery lessons with grandma.
Oh my, you are a lifesaver, again kind of drunk when I was revising it, but you truly saved me from a headache.
Sorry, I promise to try and get better
Just did
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it, I shall work on it so it can actually be brilliant some day.
Sure thing, maybe a little bit in the future as of right now I haven’t added any stats checks, but in the future.
Let’s calm down a bit. It’s still early game so there’s it will probably happen later. While I am interested about the powers I’m more interested in the other kingdoms and how things stand with them especially the one that is proud and arrogant thinking they are our equal.
The house that oversees that kingdom is house Lavone- I’m working on some scenes in which the realm situation will be focused on the great houses and how they behave towards the king (as each one the great houses “rules” a kingdom on behalf of the king, such reason there are only seven dukes) as well as some of the dukes that are on the council and those that wish a seat on it, but as of now the first chapter and part of the second are to “shape” MC’s childhood and family relationships dynamics.
Basically the foundations of the Mcs past is made in the early chapters and how they view family members. At least it will be covered later so we could have some influence on it later ruling or not. I like political drama in games like this so thanks for assuring me about it.
Will we be able to customize our dragon? For example, their gender, size, body type, elements (if there are any), physique (like chubby, fat, lean, athletic, muscular, thin, etc) and colors (like eyes, horns and scale colors). And maybe even their training for whether if we want to play a stealth-like playthrough or be fire and death like Smaug?
I don’t see why we couldn’t customise the dragon since it would be ours. I’m just worried how the other houses would react and they would try to manipulate us or try to take us out before we become a threat in their eyes.
Well indeed when the time comes, and MC manages to make the eggs hatch, your dragon can be customised, and as for the other houses, when that time comes they certainly will try to exploit that…
Yeah, I mean I get some players might want to have more of a tumultuous relationship with the family, so the early stage of the story can provide that, I intend to create some opportunities for the seeds of the “fragmented relationships” if you so desire and in the older chapters it all will just come down.
I mean thanks a lot, really, still I will do my best to improve what I’ve got so far, I’m still not quite content with it.
