Twine Version: Version 2.3.16
Story Format: Harlowe 3.2.3
Hello fellow Twine User. :)
I am currently making a game with Twine/Harlowe 3.2.3 and have a question.
I want to have multiple choices in one passage wich will appear as questions but i want the questions you already asked to disappear.
For example:
[[Ask her about her place]]
[[Ask her about herself]]
[[Ask her about the forest]]
[[Ask her about the village]]
If the player clicks on the first question it will lead you to another passage where i can just hook the other three into but what if i want twine to remember what the player already have seen? like everytime the player asks a question this will disappear completely, doesnt matter in wich order.
I also would like to know if i can creat a go-to link to another passage if the condition is met that all questions being asked and how i could do that.
Thank you in advance and greetings, UnholyKn1ght. :)
You should be able to each individual link disappear by setting a variable in each passage, then wrapping each link in an (unless:) For instance:
(unless: $a is 1)[(print: "[[Ask her about her place]]")]
(unless: $b is 1)[(print: "[[Ask her about herself]]")]
(unless: $c is 1)[(print: "[[Ask her about the forest]]")]
(unless: $d is 1)[(print: "[[Ask her about the village]]")]
(unless: (visited: "Ask her about her place"))[ [[Ask her about her place]] ]
Edit: oh, and you need the spaces between the square brackets like that because otherwise the Twine editor will get the wrong idea about what the link name isā¦ there might be other ways around that but itās usually not a problem to have spaces and itās probably more readable anyway.
I thought there was some flavor of *Twine that offered a āchoice-listā macro where links disappear when followed. Chapbook has āforksā but doesnāt mention it does this so probably not, although itād be cool to have an option to mark any link as āone use only.ā
Axma did this by preceding a link with a minus -[[You can only follow this link once.]]
*I might be thinking of ChoiceScript that does thisā¦
THATāS IT! Thank you for reminding me. I did so much waffling between Twine flavors that I didnāt remember what rules went with what system. Kind of how Iāve played most card games but end up confusing all the rules that live in one drawer in my head. My friends get a bit annoyed when I slap the stack in RummySpades/Hearts/Poker and try to claim it!
I canāt run the macro āvisitedā because it doesnāt exist.
Did you mean to run a macro? If you have a word written like (this:), it is regarded as a macro name.
This is what it gets me when i try it. o.o I also tried to change it into $visited but that also gives me an error wich is sad because i like the idea. :o
So the code from Josh Grams and the advice from E. Joyce to get the newest version of twine helped me out.
I just had to put: (set: $visited = 1) in my startup and tagged the visited passge with $visited.
So now i just need to know how i can make it that it will automaticly goes to another passage when every questions are done. Like i want to trigger an event with that. Any ideas?
