Issues with automatically progressing passages…

timsamoff

Hi,

This one has me scratching my head And maybe theres a better way to do this?

In PassageA, I have something like this:

(if: $playerHealth > 0 and $monster1Health > 0)[Do stuff]

(elseif: $monster1Health > 0 and $playerHealth <= 0)[(set: $variable1 to false)(goto: "PassageB")]

(elseif: $playerHealth > 0 and $monster1Health <= 0)[(set: $variable1 to true)(goto: "PassageC")]

In PassageB, theres this:

(link: "PassageD")[(set: $variable2 to true)(goto: "PassageD")]

Everything works concerning the first if statement in PassageA. But when its time to trigger either of the elseif statements, I get taken directly to PassageD, without going to B or C.

Has anyone experienced something like this? Is there another way to automatically progress to new passages?

Thanks!
Tim

I just tested this in a dedicated environment and its working fine Maybe Im doing something wrong. Ill delete this thread if I find that this is my mistake.

I couldnt figure this one out, so I attached the functionality to a button that was nested in an if statement. If anyone else experiences this, please post here.

Which version of Twine 2 were you using, because your code example works correctly with the version of Harlowe that comes with 2.0.4

Im using 2.0.4 And, yes, the code works. Just not where I want it to. I think Ive boiled it down to some sort of corruption within the passage (or a typo that I havent been able to find for three days). In any case, I was able to come up with another solution that works just fine.

Thanks, though!
