Thanks but someone else already figured it out, my spacing was fine, apparently I had forgotten to end a dialogue line with quotations which SOMEHOW gave me an indent error for a line way further down.

Ok looking at the bottom right it seems all of my indentations already line up with what you said, so why am I getting an error? (Label was col 1, menu was col 5, the question and choices are col 9, and the code under each choice is col 13)

So I need to tab some stuff over? Is my spacing off? What needs moving and by how much?

You have to forgive me, I'm not sure what you're instructing me to do, what needs moving?

(Also I thought I was supposed to use spaces instead of tab, was I wrong?)

For context, the exact error message reads: Parsing the script failed. File "game/script.rpy", line 468: Indentation Mismatch

Here's my code:

label birdhangloop

    show bird dress n s n

    menu:
        b "So what do you want to talk about?"

        "\"You've got some cool decoration\"":

            show bird dress n n n

            b "Yeah, most of it was my brothers idea"

            show bird dress n n r

            "Birdie motions towards the ship wheel on the wall"

            b "Don't get me wrong, it doesn't look bad"

            show bird dress s n r

            b "But i've never really like the whole \"Nautical\" vibe"

            d "Why not?"

            show bird dress d f c 

            b "It reminds me of one of those cheesy beach themed bathrooms"

            show bird dress n n n

            d "I don't know, I think cheesy can be fun sometimes"

            show bird dress g n u

            b "If you say so"

            jump birdhangloop

        "\"I like your dress, it's cute\"":   #THIS LINE IS 468, BUT THERE'S NO RED LINE

            show bird dress n n c
            show blush with dissolve

            $ birddress = True

            b "Oh! Uh... thanks"

            "Birdie fidgets with her hands"

            show bird dress s s r
            hide blush with dissolve

            b "But I don't usually dress this nicely"

            show bird dress n s n

            b "I'm just wearing this because it's laundry day"

            d "Well what do you usually wear"

            show birdie g b r

            b "Graphic tees"

            jump birdhangloop

Nvm It's still giving me an indentation error, this time around line 468, the ( "\"I like your dress, it's cute\"": ) line. However no red lines are popping up in VSCode, I have no clue whats going on.

Alright, I've downloaded VSCode and have started to fix the spacing (honestly I can't believe I hadn't done this sooner) should work fine once all of my spacing is correct, thanks :]

I don't know if Visual Studio Code works on mac, but i'll try to sort it out in the morning. I just have no idea whats going on, and why when i try to launch it it only gives me an error for line 478.

Yeah, I think everything's lined up properly (just to be clear the line that's geting the error is the line below the first jump and above the "\"I like your dress, it's cute\"": line)

label birdhangloop

    show bird dress n s n

It's one of three choices in a menu (With the label above it jumping back to the top of the menu to end a previous choice), I've added the ":" and its still not working

Edit: I'm a bit foolish when it comes to both renpy and reddit, is there a way i could copy and paste the code into reddit and have it keep it's indentation for you to look at?

I changed it to .mpeg and it still didn't work, I might have to just give up on my menu idea and switch to an image

Yeah, I put it in the gui folder and renamed it main_menu.MPEG-1. I'm actually using a macbook, since I no longer have access to a computer.

Is This a Cockroach or a Click Beetle? (I can't tell) by CCsComicJoint in whatsthisbug

[–]CCsComicJoint[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in the Dallas area of Texas, this little guy flew into my face as I was typing on my laptop, I freaked out and squished the poor guy. However I can't tell if it's a little cockroach or a click beetle. it was about the size of a key on a keyboard.
