I'm working on my game "The Silent Column" again, and I've come across this error:
While running game code: File "game/part1.rpy", line 149, in script
Exception: Sayer gip is not a function or string.

I looked at the code, line 149 in part1.rpy. This is it:
(lol)
I went to script.rpy, and I have this, which is where the problem is:


I don't understand the problem. I followed this example perfectly, as far as I can tell:

How do I solve this problem?

And also, I have another question. It's not so much a problem, but, I have
ctc_position="fixed", what_prefix='"', what_suffix='"', ctc=anim.Blink("continue.png", xpos = 325, ypos =564)
Tacked on at the end of every character (asside from my narrator character, who doesn't speak in quotes, obviously.) just so I have the continue animation and quotes around their text. Is there a better way of doing this? That feels like a lot of wasted space, especially since I have a lot of characters.

Thanks for your help, all of you

Not sure about the error... copy-pasting your code into a new project appears to work just fine. Are you sure you actually put it into an init block?

As for the repetition... try something like this:



You can now use MyCharacter the same way you would use Character, but without the extra typing.

I am sure.
Thank you for the help with my other problem but...
... wait-
oh well herp derp, when I was creating flags later, I named one of them gip, not even a case difference.
some could choose to be annoyed at this but...
I'm glad it was an easy fix! yay! So now both of my problems are solved, thank you very much.

So to use your function, would it be like this?:


edit: it works! Thank you, good sir!
