It means what it says: you changed the script in such a way that Ren'Py could no longer identify the current statement, or any of the statements recorded in the rollback history. Typically it's because you renamed or removed a label.
You'll have to start a new game or find an earlier save that can still be loaded. | r/renpy | comment | r/RenPy | 2024-18-08 |
"You" almost always being the developer, not the player. These are often caused by changing the Ren'Py version mid-development or having a broken save with not enough labels in the source files to allow the game to rollback within the defined buffer. | r/renpy | comment | r/RenPy | 2024-19-08 |

I think you'd want to use an elseif/elif statement, rather than multiple ifs? The conditional statements page has an example of using them.

My guess is that you might need to add the pause code command in there to pause the text and audio (sound/music).
I’ve never done what you’re trying to do, so I’m making a best academic guess.
Maybe something like renpy.pause.sound and renpy.pause.text might work when added into your code the right way.

You can do this individually when defining characters. You can have character dialogue and the nvl version.
For example:
