GDScript String format with an array

Question

I'm learning Godot and GDScript as an absolute beginer. For that I follow a course where the instructor make a simple code to format a string with values contained in an array. Here is his code :

But when I write the exact same code I have the following error "unsupported format character in operator '%'"

Can someone explain me what's wrong ? The only difference I can see is that the tutorial was writtenn on Godot 3.1 and I'm on 3.2.3

Answer 1

You're missing the second format specifier in story. Should be:

...ate %s flavoured...

What you're doing is called String Interpolation. As a reminder, all of the % inside your string need to have a specifier next to them. %s works for now, because you're embedding strings.

The documentation on the other specifiers for future reference: https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/getting_started/scripting/gdscript/gdscript_format_string.html#format-specifiers
