Much is unfinished, and much is noted out so I could get to the problem area faster

Please edit your post to include code tags (the <> icon).

Line 38: you confuse = (assignment) with == (comparison for equality)
if (z1first = true) {
should be
if (z1first == true) {



In many places, line 63, 68, etc. you miswrite the logical or's: you will need a logical test (presumably input ==...) on both sides of the ||.
if (input == "go left" || "left") {
should be
if (input == "go left" || input == "left") {
with many similar cases.


You should build up code gradually, testing at each stage, not confront a wall of code at once. Also, do not use so many global variables and use more meaningful names for your functions than z1(), z2(), etc.
