Harlowe - displaying a link to a passage if the player visited another passage

CountessBathory

I'm trying to create a story where the outcomes change depending on which order the player explores a house. For example, if a player visits room X first, they will be unable to visit room Y, but they can still visit room Z.

Here's the code I'm trying to use:

(if: (history:) contains "Bathroom") [
[[Kitchen.]]
]
[[Bedroom.]]
[[Living room.]]

I get this error message:
"The (if:) command should be assigned to a variable or attached to a hook."

What am I doing wrong?

I think it might be as simple as removing the space between the open parenthetical and the first square bracket?

CountessBathory

I tried that, still nothing.

Here's an example story that seems to work correctly... you should be able to import it into Twine and see the code.

Thank you so much!! Between this code and some finagling, I figured it out - the passage was named "sec1_op0" and Twine wasn't liking the 0.
