Re: Dialogues in VN

Also poor writers overuse curses and slang words. What exactly is wrong with having characters use swear words and slang words? Depending on the setting, I don't think it would be "bad dialogue" to have a character swear or use slang. Like, say, in a high school setting (which many VN's a...

Re: How to customize the timer for menu choices.

Ow. Maybe you want just to style the bar, to have a different style from the basic theme. Is that you're asking? If that, do this: screen countdown: timer 0.01 repeat True action If(time > 0, true=SetVariable('time', time - 0.01), false=[Hide('countdown'), Jump(timer_jump)]) bar value time range tim...

Re: Can I create a non-reactangle selection for an imagemap?

Yes you understand it correctly. An image as background (you can change it in the options.rpy file, is the "mm_root" value... like mm_root="mybg.jpg") then the imagemap, with an alpha channel (=transparent pixels wher the background image had to be shown). There's no additional c...

Re: Can I create a non-reactangle selection for an imagemap?

It's hard to tell without seeing an image. Anyway, imagemaps CAN BE .png overlays on other images, with an alpha channel, and only opaque pixels are sensitive in the given area of the button (the hotspot). This can help you create complex imagemaps (and avoid overlapping anyway). Just create a png m...

Re: Text not filling horizontal space in choice buttons...

XD XD XD
Its fun. I didn't noticed at first.
style.menu_choice_button.xminimum = int(config.screen_width * 2.0)
style.menu_choice_button.xmaximum = int(config.screen_width * 0.75)

The minimum is larger than the maximum. Try fix it.

Re: How to Make a Icon Show A Video

You mean a button that you can press to show a video?
And a full sized video playing in a game menu or something overlying the actual game?

Re: Say_who window animated?

Mmmh... is somehow complex. The animation you defined is played once, as only once is put "inside" the displayable. So, next time you will see only the last frame. To animate this everytime you have to create a transform and apply it with AT clause to an element, in the "say" scr...

Re: Disabling textbuttons [unsolved]

Uhm... I suppose you can click once again a button that doesn't have the condition matched because you put the sensitive check after the return of the value.
Just that XD. Actions are done in strict order. After that, the button become insensitive.

Re: Text save problem

So... You have to use JSON functions to store the _last_raw_what variable content. Mind that if you ar in a choice context, a transition or other context, no text will be saved (obviously). Here we go. This is the JSON function. Put it where you want. init python: def the_lastline(d): mylast_line = ...

Re: COPY a save slot (complex)

It doesn't seem that necessary since it only takes a few seconds to save in multiple slots. The only games I've seen a copy function in are the ones that only use one slot. Yeah, you're right, for usual novel games I don't see so much use into that (you can simply save multiple times at the same po...
