    I started watching you yesterday, but your videos inspire me so much that I have started writing a script for my very first story.
    And as ambitious as I am, I really want to add points, cc, overlays and everything that I learned from you, because without your tutorials I wouldn't know how to start.
    Thank you for everything. For your inspring stories and helpful tutorials. I know that my story won't be as perfect as yours, but I still want to try making it thanks to you ❤️

      CC is character customization and overlays are like those you see that are not part of the backround, like cars in some stories, scars and things like that

    • @emmabrl4866
      @emmabrl4866 4 года назад +80

      You could write this:
      if (CHARACTER =1){
      writerMessage Your friendship with Character is 1
      }
      elif(CHARACTER =2){
      writerMessage Your friendship with Character is 2
      }
      elif(CHARACTER =0){
      writerMessage Your friendship with Character is 0
      }
      and any other number.
      I hope this helped you and every other person wondering.
      ALSO, CHARACTER IS THE PERSON YOU HAVE THE RELATIONSHIP WITH, NOT THE MAIN CHARACTER!!!

    What if you wanted to have more than two outcomes? For example if Seckry is in the negatives, she rejects him, in the positives, she accepts, but also if he has =0, she could be unsure, or something of that sort. I am trying to make a mini game but I don’t know how to have more than only 2 outcomes!
