So I have this choice in my story where the readers can choose which question or questions to ask. Based on choices made previously with a character (Marquise), the main character either gets to ask from 1-3 questions out of six questions (+ one other option).
Everything works really well before the choice to ask questions; the if statement before it, which is the same as the “if: ASHM3 >= 1” one except with [join] rather than jumps and one bit of narrator text for each if.
What doesn’t seem to work is everything under the choice’s join.
Here's my code
What have I done wrong?
Hey there 
What I see right away:
A few [give … are missing the :
so it’s [give: …]
Then for formatting, I’d put the [give: QUESTION_N] on the same line as the [limit: 1]
As basic looping question code can be like this example:
-> loop_start
:loop_start
* [if: ASK = 3] -> end_loop
* [else] -> questions
:questions
What would you like to ask?
* [limit: 1][give: ASK] Q1 -> q_one
* [limit: 1][give: ASK] Q2 -> q_two
* [limit: 1][give: ASK] Q3 -> q_three
* I have no questions. -> end_loop
:q_one
content for q_one
-> loop_start
:q_two
content for q_two
-> loop_start
:q_three
content for q_three
-> loop_start
:end_loop
Story continues
This way, the reader can only choose 3 questions (you can add more than 3 of course) and will automatically be transferred to the :end_loop once the counter for ASK is at 3
Hope this helps

Thank you so much! I’ve rearranged it all and it seems to be working now. Thanks again.
