I'm am trying to make just a simple text-based adventure game, inspired greatly by Zork. Basically all it is is an IF statement for many possible input so the player isn't constrained to inputting their text in a certain format. Then each section is it's own module so when the player selects the option that moves them forward through the game it imports the module of the next section. The issue is with the IF statement. Here's the code...
print "Welcome Adventurer! What is your name?"
print " "
name = raw_input(">")
print "Hello, " + name + ". Let's begin"
print "You find yourself in the middle of a thick forest. There are trees"
print "surrounding you to the east, south, and west."
print " "
def level():
choice = raw_input(">")
if choice == 'go east':
print "You can't get through the trees to the east."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'Go East':
print "You can't get through the trees to the east."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'Go east':
print "You can't get through the trees to the east."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'East':
print "You can't get through the trees to the east."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'east':
print "You can't get through the trees to the east."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'e':
print "You can't get through the trees to the east."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'go west':
print "You can't get through the trees to the west."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'Go West':
print "You can't get through the trees to the west."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'Go west':
print "You can't get through the trees to the west."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'West':
print "You can't get through the trees to the west."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'west':
print "You can't get through the trees to the west."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'w':
print "You can't get through the trees to the west."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'go south':
print "You can't get through the trees to the south."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'Go South':
print "You can't get through the trees to the south."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'Go south':
print "You can't get through the trees to the south."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'South':
print "You can't get through the trees to the south."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'south':
print "You can't get through the trees to the south."
print " "
level()
if choice == 's':
print "You can't get through the trees to the south."
print " "
level()
if choice == 'go north':
import _level1
if choice == 'Go North':
import _level1
if choice == 'Go north':
import _level1
if choice == 'North':
import _level1
if choice == 'north':
import _level1
if choice == 'n':
import _level1
else:
print "I don't understand."
print " "
level()
level()So you're supposed to choose north, it is the correct option. The issue is everything works fine, except when you select north it imports the next section just fine except it also runs the ELSE part of the IF statement. How do I fix this?
