multiple questions and an error report

Post by Missy_Hissy » December 21st, 2018, 10:19 am

Hi Drake,
I've looked at your career and found the problem. It's the space in "Comic Artist" within your .Careers file that's throwing up the error. I did wonder if that's what it would be. The code itself doesn't seem to like spaces, so you're going to need to remove them. This does mean your AltGuid too. If you simply remove the space, your AltGuid will become "ComicArtist". That will conflict with my Comic Artist career, so if you intend to upload the career, make sure that's mentioned. However, you could change it to "ComicStripArtist" or something along those lines. You do need to remove the spaces though, that's what's causing your script error :)

I hope that helps. I apologise for not having been able to answer you instantly on my forum. I've had a very difficult two years personally, including homelessness and health issues as a result. On top of that, I had no internet during that time so I haven't been as active as I would have liked.

As for the multiple branching, it is possible and been discussed a fair bit. I've created a Medic Career with 3 branches which I will be uploading as soon as I've ironed out a few things. If you want something to glance at until I've got mine uploaded, the subject was first discussed HERE by myself and dudeyochill. He uploaded a couple of *test* branch splits. This enables you to have your initial split, then a second split after the first. As far as splitting into 3 or 4 branches at first, I haven't experimented with that although since the fields <BranchName3> and <BranchName4> do get recognised, I see no reason why it wouldn't work.

Thank you, igazor. Things have finally started picking up and we're all slowly on the mend. I hope you have a lovely holiday season too!
Drake - with regard to your question about a tutorial for opportunities and events, I did write one only a few days ago. You can find it HERE. It's aimed for beginners, so hopefully it'll help you :)
