Python elif not responding

So I have this function called --cmd_skeleton(enemy)-- and I want the program to print out the function. cmd skeleton.

It's located on personal game https://w.trhou.se/cnpjhlp40q

 if start == '1':
    print("You went diving")
  elif enemy == 'skeleton':
    cmd_skeleton(enemy)

Variables and functions are defined in my code upthere but the error is with the elif enemy it's doesn't respond

Hope you can help.

:point_right: On lines 3 and 4 you set enemy to 'Skeleton', which will not match because of the upper-case S.

Oh ... I'm so dumb but still thanks a lot ! :D But now i have another issue

My game doesn't repeat. Once i kill my monster it prints back the main screen but then no commands are accepted. Is my while loop not well configured or is it something else?

My new code : https://w.trhou.se/opoqk8f5df
