title: Having issues with a program that skips the If Else part of the code
body: <p>I am creating a text-based game and, so far, I have gotten the <strong>if</strong> and the <strong>else</strong> statements to work. However, the <strong>else if</strong> does not work. I've gone through several sites and several pages and even talked with a  fellow coder. I've done what I can, such as replacing <strong>==</strong> with <strong>"?".equals(Call#))</strong> then changing to <strong>Call#.equals("?")</strong>. I had the <strong>else if</strong> as a nested <strong>if</strong> but that also failed.</p>
  
  <pre><code>public static void FirstRoom(){
      System.out.println("You are in a room filled with\ndarkness and no memory of your\npast. There are several objects\nscattered on the ground and a\nlantern in your hand. You find\na lighter in your pocket.");
      System.out.println("\n ----- \n");
      Scanner console = new Scanner(System.in);
      String Call = console.next();
      if (Call.equals("Inspect")) {
          System.out.println("\nYou can only see darkness");
          System.out.println("\n ----- \n");
      } else if(Call.equals("Light Lantern")){
          System.out.println("\nYou pull the lighter from your pocket and,\nturning the knob, raise the\nlantern's wick and light it.");
      System.out.println("\n ----- \n");
      }else{
          System.out.println("\nWhat do you mean?");
          System.out.println("\n ----- \n");
      FirstRoom();
     }
     String Call2 = console.next();
     if(Call.equals("Inspect")) {
         System.out.println("You see a large sword to your\nright and a bag to the left.\nThere is a door in front\n of you and a door behind.");
         System.out.println("\n ----- \n");
     }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I type in <em>Light Lantern</em>, I expect it to say <em>You pull the lighter from your pocket and, turning the knob, raise the lantern's wick and light it.</em> Instead, it skips to the second statement (supposed to also wait for you to input for the second) and says <em>You see a large sword to your right and a bag to your left. There is a door in front of you and a door behind.</em></p>
  
  <p><strong><em>Inspect</em></strong></p>
  
  <p>You can only see
  darkness</p>

  <p><strong><em>Light Lantern</em></strong>
  You see a large sword to your
  right and a bag to your left.
  There is a door in front
   of you and a door behind.</p>
