Goto was unexpected at this time batch windows 7 s

Question

This code is designed to resemble a simpler version of the Pokemon battle gameplay. I've only coded in the attacks. I've been testing thoroughly, and found that an error message (Goto was unexpected at this time) whenever the user confirmed their attack. WARNING!! Code is 96 lines long. At the end, I'll put the problem section, so you can skip this first huge chunk.

goto Tackle 

The code gets here fine, but once I'm here, it doesn't expect the goto commands. Anyone can fix this beef? (Note: Tackle is just an example. None of the attacks work.) EDIT: If the user puts in "Yes","No",gibberish, or nothing, it still delivers the same error message (goto was unexpected at this time)

Answer 1

Excuse me,
This is just a question to the downvotes.
The people who asks just IS NOT SURE must the problem be in THAT PART.

e.g.

set a=
if %a%==1 echo yes

If I just post this line:

if %a%==1 echo yes

Then WILL EVERYBODY KNOW WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?

---

Remember for variable, like %abc%, it's better to use it with ",[ or { so as to prevent error message.

---

e.g.

set /p abc=

and the user inputs nothing.
Then the next line should be:

if %abc%==1 echo Hi

But it became:

if ==1 echo Hi

,as "%abc%"==""
But with "", it will become

if ""=="1" echo Hi

And "" unequal to "1".
Understand?

---

EDIT---

If you're using Windows 7 ( or other versions ), you may also try this:

choice /c YN /n /m "Confirm? [Y^|N]

The ^ is just escaping the "pipe" (|).

Hope this will be useful to you!

Answer 2

If the user enters nothing, your If lines probably evaluate to something like this:

…
If ==Yes goto Combat
If ==No goto Begin
…

which is syntactically incorrect. I would suggest initialising accept before the set /p command with some default value:

…
set accept=default
set /p accept=Yes/No?
if …

That way, if the user just hits Enter, the accept variable will retain the default value, and the subsequent if will not end up in the error.

Answer 3

You have to put it in quotes:

if "%accept%"=="yes" goto combat
if "%accept%"=="no" goto begin

Or rather if you dont want to make it case sensitive:

if /i "%accept%"=="yes" goto combat
if /i "%accept%"=="no" goto begin

Answer 4

Your problem is that this line:

set /p accept=Yes/No?

does NOT use the same variable name that these ones:

If %acccept%==Yes goto Combat
If %acccept%==No goto Begin

Above variables have "ccc", but the first one just "cc"

Hi, user1205760; I got some time to spend, so I take your program and made it somewhat smaller. This is my version:
