Ask questions about one topic per thread, and use a descriptive subject. "NotImplemented error in script.rpy" is a good subject, "Tom's problems" is not. Remember to include all of traceback.txt or error.txt when reporting a problem, as well as the relevant lines of script. Use the [code] tag to format scripts.

Hi there,

I am a big fan of Ren'py and how simply, yet flexibly it codes. I was hoping to use it as a base for a game idea, but I would need to program an additional feature into its framework to work. Is this allowed in Ren'py? I would only do so if Pytom allows it, but it would provide a much better game base than scripting from scratch.

Thanks for the help,

Ren'Py is open source, which means that everyone is allowed to change it, in order to fix bugs or add features. Of course, with a record of over six years of improvements, it likely won't be necessary --- but the option is there if your project needs it.

May I ask what feature it is?

You certainly can do it, but if it's something suitable for core Ren'Py, then it might make sense to talk the feature out first, and then I can take it into the main Ren'Py.
