Okay, so I have a clock on one of my games, and I've scripted it so that once it hits 12, it goes back to 1. The only problem is, I want the clock to say whether it's 1 AM or 1 PM. I made this script which looks fine to me:

IF %TIME = 12 AND %AMPM = 1 THEN
%AMPM := 2

IF %TIME = 12 AND %AMPM = 2 THEN
%AMPM := 1

 ... But it doesn't work. >.<

Anyone have any idea what's wrong with it?

Thanks Miz. ^_^

Edit: ... Where do the BEGIN and END go? :'(

Thank you! ^_^

... I've just realized what you mean though, and I don't think I can code this using multiple IF statements instead of AND. >.<

Genius! ^_^

It works!!! ^_^

It seems the second statement undoes the action of the first. I think you want

IF %TIME=12 THEN BEGIN  
 IF %AMPM=1 THEN %AMPM:=2
 ELSE IF %AMPM=2 THEN %AMPM:=1
END

If AMPM can only be one or two it becomes a bit easier. In this case 

IF %TIME=12 THEN BEGIN
  IF %AMPM=1 THEN %AMPM:=2
  ELSE %AMPM:=1
END

Oops, sorry it seems I am late to the party!

I'm stupid again! >.<

Okay, so this time I've scripted a little code that's supposed to show up if I don't have an item in my inventory and disappear once I pick up the item. The code is:

%%ITEMSTATE1%=%0%You do not have this item in your inventory%%

... But the text shows up whether I have the item in my inventory or not. Anyone know what's wrong?

Thanks, but doesn't work... Dag nab it, am I going to have to create a variable for all of the items too? Curse you, items!

I should really use less coding in my games.

Anyway, new coding problem. "=" is working just fine with coding. For example:

"IF %WORKING = 1 THEN

%HURRAY := 1"

This works. But, ">=" really doesn't want to work at all. So:

"IF %WORKING >= 1 THEN

%FUCKIT := 1"

Doesn't work at all. Anyone know what's wrong with it? Because if I have to go through all the different variations of numbers, this is going to take forever. >.<

The script I'm using is:

IF %TIME >= 3 AND %PLANT = 1 THEN

%PLANT := 2

It's part of a script on a particular page. If I use:

IF %TIME = 3 AND %PLANT = 1 THEN

%PLANT := 2

Then it works... But since I need it to work for numbers above 3 as well, this is pretty annoying, since if I can't figure out a way to make the whole ">=" part work, then I'm going to have to code it all individually for numbers between 3 and 24. >.<

Yey! It works! Thank you!
