Hi got this error while playing “chapter9 line 3456: It is illegal to fall in to an *else statement; you must *goto or *finish before the end of the indented block”.
it happened 3 time by now, once at the train yard after offering to medical assistance, then when the prom started and one final time while dancing with Madison.
question…, how many part left for this game before its story completed?

I can build a vegetable garden in part 3 but it does not seem to do anything.
Also in part 3 when going to meet the strangers in the woods it says that Jaime is preparing to go with me but he does not go with us and there is no option to pick him to go with us. Like in some sentences he appears to be in the team meeting the strangers but the game itself does not consider him to be in the team since the stat ‘mission_jaime’ is false and there is no way to make it true.
Brody also appears when we talk to the group but I did not bring him along with the team.
Still my biggest question where part 3 actually ended?

Part 3 ends after you deal with Monica, Anders (Special) and Missy about them joining your group

Just to put things in context, most character illustrations cost $300-500 USD to commission if we are talking about the type of portraits presented in Out for Blood. I could go cheaper with simple line illustrations, but it would still be a considerable amount of money. I’m not necessarily opposed to spending that money, but it raises another question. What exactly do these characters look like? I have tried to be vague in describing them, so people can create images in their mind of how they want them to be. I only give hair color or some specifics to provide detail to a character, but overall I try to keep it up to the imagination of the reader. With Keith, I wanted to present him in a very specific way. I’m afraid that if I do that with other characters, it will take away some of the player’s “agency” in and managing them how they want to.
I’m open to more thoughts on the topic.
There is a way to build North and South watchtowers. Is it not working for you?
This got buried in my list of fixes I needed to make, so thank you for bringing it up again.
You will need to delete your app, reinstall it, click on the Upgrade menu, and Restore Purchases. This should fix the issue.
I don’t have any set end in sight. I am already committed to five parts, but if people are still interested in the story, I could continue.
I am running through automated tests now, and then should be able to send updated files with many bug fixes to HG. I’m still tweaking many other things and investigating issues that people have sent in. Thanks for all the reports and suggestions!

I believe Jaime and Brody are automatically set to go on the mission with you, so you don’t need to select them. At least that is how I always read it. As for the Vegetable Garden, at first I was gonna say it might be a case of the game not showing any benefit but looking at the code it doesn’t actually do anything, nothing uses the variable vegetable_garden except building the thing itself.
EDIT: Problem resolved lol

I can’t find a way to build the watchtowers.
@JimD When I play my movie star MC. It always gives me some gender dysphoria when people call her “actor” instead of “actress” would it be too much work to include different genders there (honestly, idk how much extra coding would that be)? If it’s too complicated then it’s alright, I’ll just keep on going with supressing the dysphoria and changing the word actor to actress in my mind, bc otherwise this is an awesome game.

So including the mc and the nephew, we can end part 3 with 26 (I think) people in our group.
I feel like part 4 is going to be a bloodbath for our group. Gotta thin out them numbers somehow! 
I know everyone has their favorites, but I kinda hope Jim doesn’t let that sway who he kills off. Nobody should be safe from the zombie apocalypse.

This 3rd part is amazing, I’m from Brazil and my English isn’t very good. I finished part 3 and I hope Rachel just has a flu or a silly illness, she is my favorite character one of the best of the bunch if not the best.
Not sure if this is the place to post possible bugs, but I created a new character and jumped into to part 3 as a professional wrestler and I think there is a part missing where you can enter your wrestling name, because later in conversations with Kevin and the Trainyard group they recognize you and say something like “Hey! You’re !!! Im a big fan of the WWL!”

As I understand it, there was a feminist push to get “actress” changed to “actor.” I know Whoopi Goldberg commented on it, saying, “Actresses can only play women. I’m an actor, I can play anything.”

Is the patch in the omnibus version?
Is the option to add character age will be added to part 3?
It probably wouldn’t be much coding, but actor is meant to be gender-neutral. There’s been a push to make actress just be ‘actor’ for a while now.

Couple bug reports:
- In the Museum mission I am experiencing a continuity bug; I chose Rachel, Brody, and Tommy and so far the scene progressed as normal until Bailey is randomly inputted into the narrative and is acting protective over Brody during the meal in the food court, because of Mel’s advances.
Particularly this line: “As Brody sits, Mel goes for the seat next to him. Bailey shoots in faster and hip bumps her out of the way. Mel moves down two seats.” Bailey wasn’t selected and is still currently at camp…
- Minor format Issue within the ‘STATS’ page
“SAFE HAVEN
Current Safe Haven: Eli’s Junkyard & Salvage
Location: outside Nightfall, Colorado Junkyard Offense: 6
Junkyard Defense: 15”
The issue here is the ‘Colorado’ and ‘Junkyard Offense’ is spaced improperly, so the formatting is broken and appears odd at first glance. Not a huge one but it bugs my brain
