need some help...(.BATCH FILE~!!!.)

[dylman06]

so i've been using batch for a while now, and i don't know why, but this use  to work, now it won't!

after you enter your name, it exits, it used to work this way, but i think i'm forgetting something

i think i'm forgetting something(i know it's not complete)

Code Select Expand

echo off
cls
color F6
:MENU
echo Hello.
set /p name=Enter your name.
set /p input=Are you sure? Y/N 
if %input%==Y goto NAMEE
if %input%==N goto MENU
goto MENU
:NAMEE
cls
echo Hello %name%.  How are you? fine/sad
if %m%==fine goto FINE
if %m%==sad goto SAD
:FINE
echo Very good then, how about we play a game? Y/N
if %m%==Y goto GAME
if %m%==N exit
:SAD
echo Why?  Is it because your playing this?
echo Then let's play a game! Y/N
if %m%==Y goto GAME
if %m%==N exit
:GAME
cls
echo We will play a dungeon game. :]
echo Now you are the dot.
echo |  |   ||||||||||
echo |  | . ||||||||||
echo |_______________|
echo
echo Do you want to go north?

I think you need to put inverted commas around your strings. So replace:

Code Select Expand


if %input%==Y goto NAMEE
if %input%==N goto MENU


With:

Code Select Expand


if "%input%"=="Y" goto NAMEE
if "%input%"=="N" goto MENU

no, that doesn't work, quotes aren't needed after == unless specified

Well, I put it in and it seems to work.

Btw, are you getting a syntax error?

no, it just quits :/

i am going to fix it D: it will take kinda forever...because my computer did have a porn virus because someone left a fishing website up for 2 months (my dad never turned it off because the monitor was burnt) so time to fix it!

It's probably because you don't have any input sets after the first one, so it just echoes what's left and then quits. If that's not it, then I don't see what's wrong with it.

echo off
cls
:MENU
echo Hello.
set /p name=Enter your name.
set /p input=Are you sure? Y/N
if %input%==Y goto NAMEE
if %input%==N goto MENU
goto MENU
:NAMEE
cls
echo Hello %name%.  How are you? fine/sad
set /p m=
if %m%==fine goto FINE
if %m%==sad goto SAD
:FINE
echo Very good then, how about we play a game? Y/N
set /p m=
if %m%==Y goto GAME
if %m%==N exit
:SAD
echo Why?  Is it because your playing this?
echo Then let's play a game! Y/N
set /p m=
if %m%==Y goto GAME
if %m%==N exit
