How do i fix my name input problem

tyrok_wolfgaming

Hey i really need help with this!
I use harlowe.
This is the problem:

(put: (prompt: "What's your name?") into $name)
Your name is $name.

When i do it just says 0 instead of the name.

I don't know how to fix it but I know what's causing it, $ creates a variable (a number basically), you can't make a number into a name just doesn't make sense

You need to state which Story Format you are using when you ask a question, as answers can be different for each one. Based on the syntax of your example I will assume you are using Harlowe.

Try using the (set:) macro instead

(set: $name to (prompt: "What's your name?"))

name: $name
