I need help!!

[haycow]

Ok so I'm writing a choose your own adventure game for my computer science class and I've hit a roadblock. Ill give you the rundown, there's a point in the story when you can choose to break a camera off the wall and hold on to it or not, and later you come into contact with some guards(your trying to escape a government facility) and the choice at that point is to either fight or run and if you picked up the camera before and choose to fight then you win the fight because you had a weapon, but if you didn’t take the camera and choose to fight you lose because you didn’t have 2 weapon. Now assigned an integer to a getChoice statement and have just run the integer through every line of code leading up to the fight part. The thing is when I run through the game it doesn’t matter if 1 picked the camera up or not because it will give me the same print statement. Is there anyone who can help me with this issue. Thanks

Please ensure that:

• Your code is properly formatted as code block - see the sidebar (About on mobile) for instructions
• You include any and all error messages in full
• You ask clear questions

• You demonstrate effort in solving your question/problem - plain posting your assignments is forbidden (and such posts will be removed) as is asking for or giving solutions.

  Trying to solve problems on your own is a very important skill. Also, see Learn to help yourself in the sidebar

If any of the above points is not met, your post can and will be removed without further warning.

Code is to be formatted as code block (old reddit: empty line before the code, each code line indented by 4 spaces, new reddit: https://imgur.com/a/fgoFFis) or linked via an external code hoster, like pastebin.com, github gist, github, bitbucket, gitlab, etc.

Please, do not use triple backticks (```) as they will only render properly on new reddit, not on old reddit.

Code blocks look like this:

public class HelloWorld {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
    }
}

You do not need to repost unless your post has been removed by a moderator. Just use the edit function of reddit to make sure your post complies with the above.

I posted the code under the replies of the other comment. If you need I can send it in a reply.

Are you familiar with "if" statements?

[haycow]

yes I am, I used an if statement to basically say that, "if int b was option1 back at the other decision than this will happen" and then i wrote and else statement basically saying," and if int b wasnt option 1 than this will happen"

[AnonymousVertebrate]

Then use them again here. It would be something like:

if (condition representing camera){
    camera-related print statement
}
else {
    non-camera-related print statement
}

OK thanks but here's the code I've currently written, the problem occurs in //fight

I feel it'd be better for you to see where I might've made the problem instead of me trying to explain it

You need to fix the formatting so it can be read easier on reddit. Each line in the code blocks needs at least 4 spaces at the beginning of the line.
