[Solved]Editing Ren'Py Source on the fly

I'm trying to track down a very strange bug with the Android Downloader. When I run the Downloader through the Ren'Py launcher it works perfectly, but when I run it on an Android device, after downloading all files, it errors out with "Could not verify update signature." I thought a quick ...

Re: About choosing names and caps/case sensitive

> Now let's imagine again that the player writes clementine or CLEMENTINE or cleMENTine or CLEMENtine (I'm making it absurd to make it clear). Is it possible to make the game recognize that the word introduced is still Clementine? I found about flags like and !cl would do what I need but I don't wan...

Re: Script compile error only presents in Android downloader build

Didn't find my answer, but a bit more information: The game not using the bundle ID from the json is a known issue. In fact, apparently all ren'py games on a computer share the same gradle project that's only generated once?! https://github.com/renpy/renpy-build/issues/24#issuecomment-1152300779 Aft...

Re: Android Game Freezes in "Downloading assets"

I think you and I are trying to do the same thing at the same time! I did not run into this issue, but I've found this useful when debugging android updater issues: You can find the log.txt in the game's files. For me, I had to adb shell into the device, then navigate to storage/emulated/0/android/<...

Re: File not found update.pem

Oh, here is where it's generated. It should happen as part of the Distribute flow. distribute_gui.rpy: label start_distribute: if project.current.dump["build"]["include_update"] and not os.path.exists(os.path.join(project.current.path, "update.pem")): call add_update_pe...

Re: File not found update.pem

I also ran into this. I think it probably only happens when you have "Build Updates" checked. I can't find any code in renpy to generate it, but something did in one of my projects, so I just copied it into my other project so it could be used there as well. I'm just testing stuff at this ...

Re: Script compile error only presents in Android downloader build

Also curious why the game isn't using the bundle ID specified in my android.json, but instead using an earlier bundle id. I know it's the right apk because I updated the url for the downloader and it's working fine.

Script compile error only presents in Android downloader build

I'm attempting to export a large Ren'Py project for Android. I'm following the instructions at https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/downloader.html. I've created a downloader game and exported the actual game's assets to a local http server. When I launch the downloader through the Ren'Py launcher, the ga...

Re: Game-Only Update for Mobile doesn't export anything

Found it! The docs say "Check that, uncheck everything else, and run the build process." However, Build Updates has to be checked for anything to export. I'll make sure it's actually working tomorrow and file a doc fix and maybe look into an error if you try running it but Build Updates is...

Re: For loop range/pages issue

> Also, again, I don't want to use dictionaries for defining the items because that's overly convoluted with how much information is stored in them. I can't imagine it would be much different iterating through 2 nested dictionaries than an object in a dictionary. We're not suggesting iterating throu...

Re: pause delay does not work when loading save

Thank you so much for your help!

I think an ATL rewrite is the way to go but it's up to the devs of the project. This pattern is used in... 77 places, at least, so coming up with a more generic approach would simplify the codebase.

Re: For loop range/pages issue

Exactly. Keep a dict that's all the info about each item. Links to its pic, its item Id, display name, etc. Then use the item ID as its key. Again, super new to ren'py so I don't know how its save works, but I'd keep it outside of save data, because it might change from update to update. Then, on yo...

Re: For loop range/pages issue

Gotcha. The line I gave you is converting the object to a string, which is what you see in your latest screenshot. So you have the key using [i]. Quite a one-liner! This is why it might make sense to define all this stuff at the top of your function, once. [code] text str(list(angestuff_ingredients....

Re: For loop range/pages issue

It would probably be useful to, right below the for line and the count check, before you do any logic, log what the values of key and i are.
