Re: Towards Tomorrow [Slice of Life?] (Feedback Appreciated)

Hey, that's a pretty nice setting, I like the idea of the Protagonist actually knowing he's at the mercy of the Player and (for what I infer) not caring that much as there is so much stuff happening around him. I keep imagining him talking back to the player when they make a choice the protagonist w...

Re: variables getting changed when they should not be

I can't seem to find any problem in the code you've posted here, at least testing it in a brand new project with some quickly-typed labels to test out. My only guess is that fte_cnt is not being set properly somewhere, as it is the variable that you use to determine wich event to call. If you want I...

Re: Need help on improving my code with Players and Skills

Could you clarify why do you need to have your Skill class inherit from Player? I think you can just make them independent, and, for example, add each player's skills as a parameter, maybe a list or a dictionary. Here's what I mean: init python: class Player(object): def __init__(self,name="NoN...

Re: How would i make an image shake when hovered in a screen?

Use 'on hover' statement with ATL. I haven't seen exactly how it is in the game you mention, but this is an example: transform shake_twice: on hover: linear .02 xoffset 10 linear .02 xoffset 0 linear .02 xoffset -10 linear .02 xoffset 0 repeat 2 Then in your screen: add 'shaking_image' at shake_twice

Re: Cycling Menu Issues

1. The first bullet doesn't show up one of the hotspots are pressed. I don't understand what this means, but I guess it's when you press the buttons, it skips the first and last bullets depending on wich direction you go. That's because you need to check for the max and min values plus 1 (I include...

Re: How Do I Go About Randomly Generating Different Characters?

My take on this is to use a list, as in a python list. You would need some kind of function to generate new characters, I'll guess you want each of them to have their own characteristics, so objects are probably a good idea. Something like this: default m_names = ["Alan", "Bruce"...

Re: Last game you played?

I had a sudden idea this weekend. It was about a game I played about two years ago and never got to finish, Analogue: A Hate Story by Christine Love. I suddenly rembered it by chance, remembered how deeply it left an impact in my heart, it opened my idiot teenager's eyes into things I never even con...

Re: Adding Player Choices to History Screen

You could just add a dialogue statement after each choice. menu: "Hello World!": e "Hello World!" "Dancing is great!": e "Dancing is great!" It looks repetitive, but other ways are likely to be more convoluted, you'd have to maybe for example modify choice scr...

Re: Ren'Py 7.1.2 Prereleased

Transforms that are used once in a screen can now be defined inline. It is now possible to set variables inside a used screen This is amazing!!!! You have no idea how much I've wished for this features to exist, one of the very few things I found tedious while writing screens was the need to create...

Re: Simple battle system and item drops

Is it okay to use and start off with this code and further customize it for my game? Yes, of course, I tried to make it as simple and straightforward as possible, but it will be helpful if you also understand the python behind it, so if you have any questions feel free to ask around or search the d...

Re: Simple battle system and item drops

I just made a really simple battle system, it's pretty basic but it hopefully gives you a start: default hero_hp = 100 default enemy_hp = 100 default damage = 0 default player_turn = False default enemy_turn = False screen battle_hud(): frame: xalign .2 yalign .7 if hero_hp > 0: text "Hero HP:[...

Re: Map location having different labels based on what the user has completed

A bit of advice regarding Meg's recommendation, while persistent is a valid option, as the name implies, it persists between all saves. This means that if for example the player or someone else starts the game again from the beginning in a different save file, when they reach this point, the variabl...

The most up to date source for Ren'Py that I know of, apart from this forum, is RenPy's own documentation . There is a section regarding what you probably need for this problem, wich is the use of variables and if statements, here . Maybe something like this: default event1_seen = False label area1:...
