If you aren't getting any errors, try to place console.log checkpoints throughout your code to find out where execution stops. - Once you do, log relevant values and if-conditions - More sophisticated debugging methods are breakpoints and runtime inspections: learn more

did that, it doesnt run

interaction.update({content: '... Really thought that would work??? You are not that Team Captain', ephemeral: true})

interaction.update({content: '... Really thought that would work??? You are not that Team Captain', ephemeral: true})

when i click any of the last 5

duck•4mo ago

yes, but where does execution stop? what does run?

AccountNoLongerInUseOP•4mo ago

right here. it runs everything before that, this just doesnt run this if any of the last five if statements are clicked

duck•4mo ago

the point isn't to find out what line is the first to not execute the condition for one of your if statements is false logging throughout, particularly before each if statement, will help you find out which one then you can log the appropriate values to understand why it's not as expected

i put console.log in all the if statements, all of them sent back what it was supposed too, i did it for the code before it, everything ran fine, i dont know why the ending statement doesnt run with the last five, it should do it fine, but it doesnt

duck•4mo ago

all of them sent back what it was supposed too

so if you log something right before this line, it does log?

yep

duck•4mo ago

as in Nuh uh passed logs?

AccountNoLongerInUseOP•4mo ago

no, it doesnt run that if i click one of the last five options, if i do it with the others, it runs fine

duck•4mo ago

that doesn't sound like "all of them sent back what it was supposed too" what is the last line to log?

AccountNoLongerInUseOP•4mo ago

console.log('COLOSSIANS passed') or whatever option i clicked (it doesnt run the second if statement inside it, i know, thats intentional, it worked for the past ones)

duck•4mo ago

well if COLOSSIANS passed logs, why would you expect that else to execute? the condition was true

AccountNoLongerInUseOP•4mo ago

because it did it for the other ones with the (almost) exact same code

duck•4mo ago

for the other if statements where the condition was false, yes

AccountNoLongerInUseOP•4mo ago

nope, it said it passed, then ran the interaction.update({content: '... Really thought that would work??? You are not that Team Captain', ephemeral: true})

duck•4mo ago

so Nuh uh passed logs?

AccountNoLongerInUseOP•4mo ago

correct

duck•4mo ago

so I take it you're talking about two separate executions of all of this code in that case, I'm fully willing to believe that interaction.values.includes('colossians') is false if interaction.values contains different values which would make the else execute since that is how if/else statements work but you can't expect the else to execute if the if was true

AccountNoLongerInUseOP•4mo ago

im going to try putting else { interaction.update({content: '... Really thought that would work??? You are not that Team Captain', ephemeral: true})
console.log('Nuh uh passed')
return; } in each if statement that seemed to work thanks
