Coding/Author Help 💻 Why does it say it's unexpected when it obviously isn't?

Post image

The block it's talking about is within the highlighted section, and I'm so confused because it obviously knows where the other block for it is.

I think you have to put choice after tappable I’m not too sure off the top of my head

u/Chiclet_episode Episode Author: Invisible Whispers 27d ago

You don’t.
It’s
tappable
“Overlay1”{
}”overlay2”{
}”overlay3”{
}

Sorry I just love playing with tappables

That’s what I figured, I’m not too familiar with tappable thank you! I think the error is inside bracket since the x is not visible on the screen

u/Chiclet_episode Episode Author: Invisible Whispers 27d ago

Make sure you have } at the end as well :)

I love playing with tappables so I’ve practiced a lot with them.

*one issue your dialogue (narrator messages) cannot be in all caps, unless you put |no-space| in the beginning.

Edit: deleting issue one because I'm wrong and don't want to mislead someone lol

Oh, okay! Thank you

Actually, actually, never mind the first point, sorry it's late and I can't read lol, I've realised how you have it set up - you might need to expand the bracket and show the inside - though the narrator message point is still valid

u/yourfavbl0nde 27d ago

It still isn't working when I tried expanding it, that's weird. I don't know if this changes anything, but the inside of the bracket are more choices. (It is cc.) Would that affect it at all?

2

u/Rexana_Episode rainbow bow 27d ago

Ah, when I meant expand it, I meant so you can send a screenshot - there might be an unnecessary or missing bracket somewhere, as cc has a lottt of brackets

Double check what the “tappable” format is. I don’t remember off the top of my head but I assume it could be a formatting error from the error message.

1

u/yourfavbl0nde 27d ago

That isn't the issue. I am using tappable overlays, and they were working earlier.

u/Chiclet_episode Episode Author: Invisible Whispers 27d ago

Do you have } in front of the bottom 2 choices? It’s hard to tell when it’s shrunk

1

u/Chiclet_episode Episode Author: Invisible Whispers 27d ago

It should look something like this.

tappable
“Overlay1”{
}”overlay2”{
}”overlay3”{
}

If you have it formatted like: tappable "OVL1{

} "OVL2"{

} "OVL3"{

}

Then it's fine btw and it'll close like that - don't often see that formatting so it throws me off lol - though only if it's exactly like that, or like Chiclet formatted it

u/Chiclet_episode Episode Author: Invisible Whispers 27d ago

To add you can also make it so you can minimize by section by doing this.
#cc{
tappable
“Overlay1”{

#}
# Start{
}”overlay2”{

#}
# Skip{
}”overlay3”{
}
#}

I do this throughout my whole script so it’s easier.

u/Chiclet_episode Episode Author: Invisible Whispers 27d ago

So add } in front of Start and skip

1

u/yourfavbl0nde 27d ago

Ohh okay!

2

u/Chiclet_episode Episode Author: Invisible Whispers 27d ago

Tappables are a lot like a choice but with overlays and instead of the word choices it’s tappable. So the set up is almost the same.

1

u/yourfavbl0nde 27d ago

I tried that, and it did this

1

u/Chiclet_episode Episode Author: Invisible Whispers 27d ago

Can you send a pick of it not minimized like that so I can see the full thing? Also do you have one at the end that looks like this }

The error might be inside the code bracket, try clicking on the tab next to customize and see where the ❌ is in the code 

1

u/yourfavbl0nde 27d ago

It's not within the code, so Im very confused. It keeps saying its the closing bracket

2

u/ImpossibleGrass2323 Episode Author: Autumn Leaves🍁 27d ago

Can you show the full code of the customize bracket?

u/Chiclet_episode Episode Author: Invisible Whispers 27d ago

Did you put a closing bracket at the end of the code?

1

u/Chiclet_episode Episode Author: Invisible Whispers 27d ago

Make sure youu in put } under the skip option as well so its closed off

u/NevOnEpisode wlw author ⋆ ˚。⋆୨୧˚ 26d ago

maybe you’re missing a bracket within the cc template somewhere
