Hey, I'm coding a text based game and stumbled upon a problem when debugging the first demo.
I receive this error when running the game:
line 97
SOLVED: False,
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
I have no idea what is causing this problem.
The only lines (I think) you have to look into are:
74-81
85-88
94-101 (this line is copy pasted all the way to line 181, but changed strings)
I'm also having problems with l"valid.jobs" at the lines:
274-280
315-230
The error message said something about "valid" not being an existing variable
This is my entire code:

main_game_loop()Edit: I have one more question, how to I break up code into lines to make it easier to read while coding, right now it's in a single line in python and is hard to read. It looks like thisDESCRIPTION: 'As you continue walking in the desert, there is nothing but sand wherever you look.\nYou feel as if you are in middle of the desert, as far away from anything as possible.\nThirsty, warm, fatigued... you continue wandering through the desert.\n' #I want it to look like this: 'As you continue walking in the desert, there is nothing but sand wherever you look.\n You feel as if you are in middle of the desert, as far away from anything as possible.\n Thirsty, warm, fatigued... you continue wandering through the desert.\n'
