Hello! I'm not sure where to put this? But...I am getting this error and i'm not sure what's wrong?

Syntac error line 24 (tab 0)
If poison=9 then poisoned=true end

'Then' expected near '='

Here is my code I am working on...

Hello, all! I have a question about a project I am working on in pico 8 (Random name generator).

I tried rnd (command) at first and that failed for obvious reasons. And now I am in a pickle I can use print and say a = "tammy" and it work's.

But!

When I add more it only works on the first entry? In reading the manual it doesn't say anything that I can see that could help me. Online has been a bust though still interesting.

I also checked out the cart pico map generator (the world name generator part) which help's in that I need to write a function...? It is rather long (and beyond my understanding unless I squint really hard).

Anyone have any way to combine two (or more) names using the print command? Or something else?

Thank you, for your time!

Ps. I am still learning pico 8. I can make (very) simple games and I not versed in each command nor the terms.
