I want to describe the passage the player is on in code.

Question

I want to make a basic if then statement for a death-reload mechanic...

(Unless: -Player is on "Dead"-)[
(If: $health < 1)[
(go-to: "Dead")
 ]
]

(once the player is on the death passage, they can reload to their last "save" and gain all their health)

The reason this is important is if I don't do this it will keep reloading death because of having no hp and saying unless history contains "dead" will mean dying twice will break the game.

I need something valid to replace "Player is on "Dead"

Answer 1

You can use the (passage:) macro to obtain the name of the current passage being viewed.

(unless: (passage:)'s name is "Dead")[
	(if: $health < 1)[
		(go-to: "Dead")
	]
]

warning: The above example was written from memory, and it has not been tested.

So what ended up happing is it worked, but going back "reloading" wouldn't work. So I made a small edit that fixed it.

(unless: (passage:)'s name is "Dead" or "Save point")[
	(if: $health < 1)[
		(go-to: "Dead")
	]
]

Again, you're the best.

Your conditional expression is wrong, it should be.

(unless: (passage:)'s name is "Dead" or (passage:)'s name is "Save point")[
	(if: $health < 1)[
		(go-to: "Dead")
	]
]
