This might seem too obvious to be correct:
You say ${namer2} (with an R) where I’d think it should be ${names2} (with an s), because earlier you say ${names1}. Is this intentional or a spelling error?

{namer2} is your police partner/romance option {names1} is the NPC/suspect your are questioning. they are gender flip so I coded the names as variable to avoid too many repeats
Also just to clarify, the codes work, there are no errors when I run tests.
It is just the freezing stats screen and never-ending loading bar lol

Apologies if I’m nitpicking, but it seems that you’re missing some #'s before some choices, or the indentation is wrong.
Additional questions:
Is this on Dashindon?; the ChoiceScript IDE; Notepad++; Notepad?
I’ve taken a look, and I can’t figure out for the hell of me why this is happening. Is it possible for you to share the source scene files so we can run a personal test?

Maybe it’s the images causing it to load for so long?
The only other thing I can think of is that perhaps there’s a loop that doesn’t exit?
Mind sharing your fuld stats screen code? This looks like more on the stats screen than the actual code. I think you have infini-loop, here.

I think there is a loop too, but I can’t find it, well I added it to Dashington, and just tried to play through it and it was kind of slow but did not get stuck…so like you said it might be the pictures but I don’t know.

Okay so I am having a bit of a problem with using the if command in relation to true and false.
#Only the Saxons
*if (Saxon >= 40)
*set Saxon true
*set Army + 20
*goto_scene Final
*elseif (Saxon < 40)
*set Saxon = false
*goto_scene Reject
So it works if Saxon is greater then or equal to 40 but if it’s lets say 30 then I always get the error expected at least one line in if true block
Heyo, you might want to check the code:
I’m not sure what sort of Variable ‘Saxon’ should be. You seem to use it a number, and as boolean, which is fine if it’s intentional. Also, you don’t need a ‘=’ sign when you set something to True or False.
Perhaps also just make sure that the indentation is correct. I think that is most likely the cause of the error.
#Only the Saxons
*if (Saxon >= 40)
*set Saxon true
*set Army + 20
*goto_scene Final
*elseif (Saxon < 40)
*set Saxon false
*goto_scene Reject
I’d also recommend swapping out the *elseif for just *else, since it’ll always ensure that a condition is run if the first isn’t met.

Please, use the pre-formatted option when posting code. This could be a matter of bad grammar. I tested this block of code with proper indentation and it worked fine, except for this line:
Which should not have = between Saxon and false.

I popped your code to my editor and I don’t think I see any cause of infini-loop here. As a kind of last resort, try refreshing your browser. I think you originally had an infini-looping code and you fixed it, but the game did not refresh on the browser; still using the old code.

I changed it else and got rid of the = but it still gives me the same error
Can you post the exact code here?
#Only the Saxons
*if (Saxon >= 40)
*set Saxon true
*set Army + 20
*goto_scene Final
*else (Saxon < 40)
*set Saxon false
*goto_scene Reject
You can format to maintain the coding indents by using this ‘preformatted text’ option, which will help us figure out the problem a bit;
You can also try to include a little bit of code before and after the little bit that is giving the problem.
Hello, i have started using CSIDE and i have been playing around with it. I have a question, how do you make a text stat instead of a percentile one? Think of it like the skill stats in Choice of Rebels. I tried to do it with this code but i always get a indentation error.
*stat_chart
text Name
text Title
text might
*if might= 0
*set text might "Might 0: You are a weak and fragile person physically"
This is the indentation error, i can’t put more left because it would stop being indented to the if.
line 7 of choicescripts_stats: invalid indent, expected 4, was 6
I use notepad so not quite sure what you mean by preformatted text option.
#Only the Saxons
*if (Saxon >= 40)
*set Saxon true
*set Army + 20
*goto_scene Final
*else (Saxon < 40)
*set Saxon false
*goto_scene Reject
#Only the Tudors
*if (Tudor >= 40)
*set Army + 10
*goto_scene Final
*elseif (Tudor < 40)
*goto_scene Reject
To display the text of a stat, you should just use ${variable}, I think.
I’d also not recommend using ‘might’ as number and a text at the same time. Additionally, if you want the value to display the text you set it to, you should set the text before you display the variable.
*if might = 0
*set might_text "Might 0: You are a weak and fragile person physically"
${Name}
${Title}
${might_text}

I mean, in this Forum, when you post a reply, you hit the </> button, and paste the code you copied from your text editor into the space it prompts you to.
Even if you’re using Notepad, you should still maintain the proper indentation.

Thanks for responding!, A question, what do you mean about not making might a number and a text at the same time? Is there any way to make most of my skills variables only text? Thanks once again for responding!
Ideally, you want to track the player’s might throughout the game as a number, so when you change it you can add or subtract from the value.
When you want to display it with text, you should have a separate variable to store the text string, otherwise it will override the number and delete it, meaning you won’t be able to do simple math with it again.
So throughout the game, if the character gets mightier, you’d say:
*set might + 1
Then, when you want to display a text value instead in the stats, you would use the value of might to determine which text to set might_text to.
Does that clarify things a bit?
