Expecting endif?

BlitzPlus Forums/BlitzPlus Beginners Area/Expecting endif?

Cactus1124(Posted 2014) [#1]
When I try to run my simple text adventure program, blitz tells me that it is expecting endif... My code worked fine untill I added and tweaked a few things. Here's my code:

;Prints a welcome message/Menu screen.
Print "**Welcome to Dragon Valley 1.0 Alpha.**"
Delay 1000
Print "**Type 'Help' for
Print "**Type 'Start' into the console when ready.**"
Print ""
Delay 1000

;Sets the inputs to start the game, or go to the help menu.
.MenuInput
menu$ = Input(" > ")
If menu$ = "start" Then
Goto Start

If menu$ = "help" Then
Goto Help

Else

Print "Say that again?"
Print ""
Goto MenuInput

;The help menu.
.Help
Print "I haven't written any code here..."

;The start of the game; everything in it gets written here.
.Start
Print "I haven't written any code here..."

Maybe try :

I don't like to use "Then", i think this is confusing. You can remove it if you want.

Cactus-

When posting code on the forum, use a code box like so:

{code} your code goes here {/code}

The curly braces need to be replaced with square ones for it to work, like this:
 your code goes here


If you indent your code, it will be easy to see where the ifs and endifs don't align, e.g.
if (a>b)
   greater=true
else
   greater=false
endif
