inform6 variables

[Rickard Hultgren]

Hi,

When I try to compile the code below I get a warning on "self.psa_variable = true ;". How should I change the value from false to true?

Thanks in advance for reply!

NPC one "one" one_room1
with psa_variable = true ;
before [;
PSA:
psa_variable false ;
"bla bla bla.^" ;
self.psa_variable = true ;

What is the warning? If you want to ask about errors, you should
include the error message in your question.

In this case I bet it's "Statement cannot be reached." The
"bla bla bla.^" statement above is short for

print "bla bla bla.^"; newline; return true;

So the program will never reach the following line. Use

print "bla bla bla.^";

by itself if you want to keep executing in the same function.

Also, your object definition has the wrong punctuation. You want

NPC one "one" one_room1
with psa_variable true,
before [;
PSA:
print "bla bla bla.^";
self.psa_variable = true ;
];

Thanks for the reply!

The warning message I get is:

Warning: This statement can never be reached
> self.psa_variable = true ;

That's because in the previous line you have code like this:
"blah blah blah";
That's equivalent to:
print_ret "blah blah blah";

Use `print "blah blah blah";' instead.
