With this amount of code:

global ammo3
global health
global tech_parts
global exp
global radio_parts
ammo1=10
ammo2=0
ammo3=0

You've stopped defining that function, and now are doing top-level code
This following stuff belongs in a function, probably called main()
print "You awake in a haze. A crate,a door and a radio."
g1 = raw_input("Which do you choose ")
if g1 == "CRATE" or g1 == "Crate" or g1 == "crate":
print "There is a pack of ammo,some food and an odd microchip"
ammo1=ammo1 + 6
health=health + 10
tech_parts=tech_parts + 1
elif g1 =="DOOR" or g1 == "Door" or g1 == "door":
print "You are outside"
elif g1 == "RADIO" or g1 == "Radio" or g1 == "radio":
print "It's only a few parts"
radio_parts=radio_parts+3
g2 = raw_input("So this is NYC.Ten years after.There are a few streets.Go west or
north ")
if g2 == "WEST" or g2 == "West" or g2 == "west":
path2_pt1()
elif g2 == "NORTH" or g2 == "North" or g2 == "north":
path1pt1()
Now, in top-level code, you're trying to call a function that hasn't
been defined yet. If you want to have complete freedom of order when
you define your functions, don't put any top-level code except a tiny
block at the end of the script. No function may be called before it has
been defined. But inside a function, the call won't be made till the
function is called. So if the only calls happen at the end of the
script, there'll never be such a problem.
def path1pt1():
print "This is where it all started. Freedom Tower. A biotech firm called
Aesthos Biotechnology. Based here."
print "I worked there."
This should be the only non-trivial top-level code, and it should be at
the end of the script.
if __name__ == "__main__":
simpstart()
main()
