if statements (plus AND/OR)

Willy Elektrix

I am using Twine 2.0 Harlowe. I want to create an "if" statement that is essentially like this:

(if: $class is "warrior") and (if: $weapon = "sword")[Some text appears here].

However, I'm not sure how to do that in Twine, since as far as I can tell, Twine does not have an equivalent command to "and" in an "if" statement. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Twine does have and as well as or. You include it in the actual if statement:

(if: $class is "warrior" and $weapon is "sword")[Some text appears here]


BTW, never use "=" in if statements. It is an assignment operator, not a comparison.

Thank you for your help. I thought already I tried writing the if statement exactly as you did. I must have been mistaken though.

I didn't intend to use "=". I'm so used to other scripting languages. It's hard to keep them all sorted out sometimes.
