A bug question about Chapter 5
🕑 Added 2024-02-12 21:24:04 +0000 UTCI've had a bug report where a couple of choices produced the message "5-return line 732: It is illegal to fall out of a *choice statement; you must *goto or *finish before the end of the indented block" and I haven't managed to reproduce it yet.
If others have played Chapter 5, it's when Raffi asks about going on the trip to Cattlehead, and the player tried to choose "We can cancel the trip. I need to help Captain Korzha anyway." or "I'm relieved. "We can cancel the trip. I need to help Captain Korzha anyway." I've tried playing through manually via the chapter-skip and using RandomTest, but it's not playing ball. If anyone's played through that bit and managed to pick one of those options without the bug happening - or had the bug happen - please can you leave a comment? Thank you so much!
And thank you to the anonymous player too - I greatly appreciate the report and the rest of the feedback, which I'm mulling over as we speak!
Edit: I think it was a Dashingdon issue as it kept on working fine on my local copy no matter how much I tried to break it - but it should be fixed now!

So sorry, and thank you so much for letting me know! I accidentally introduced that bug when doing a small update yesterday and forgot to double-check - it's fixed now.

Um, sorry, found a different bug. It seems to happen whenever I try to assign a gender to Sav, both in the very beginning before the story even starts, or when meeting for the first time. "Dashingdon.com says worldstate line 3061: Non-existent variable 'sav_parent'

Brilliant, thanks! It should be fixed now.

That's really good to know, thank you! It should be fixed now.

I managed to reproduce it, chapter skip to 5, then starting a few screens prior: > I nod. I doubt she'd want me to fuss. >> "Is it urgent? Could it wait?" >>> "I should talk to Raffi first. We're meant to be going to Cattlehead tomorrow." >>>> "I'd hope that her parents would understand." >>>>> I'm irritated but resigned. "We can cancel the trip. I need to help Captain Korzha anyway." That produces 5-return line 732: It is illegal to fall out of a *choice statement; you must *goto or *finish before the end of the indented block.

I've managed to keep the bug from happening if I tell Korzha that I'd be happy to help. I always seem to get the bug when I tell Korzha that I should talk to Raffi first.
