How to customize the timer for menu choices.[SOLVED]

[Kiriyama]

Hello, I need help to customize the timer(color, size, maybe my own bar) Any ideas?
I've been using this code:

Code: Select all

transform alpha_dissolve:
    alpha 0.0
    linear 0.5 alpha 1.0
    on hide:
        linear 0.5 alpha 0

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 timer_range xalign 0.5 yalign 0.9 xmaximum 300 at alpha_dissolve # This is the timer bar.

Thank you for your time.

Have you looked at the Renpy Tutorial?

Under Dynamic Displayables, there is a countdown timer that changes color and size is also specified.

I tried with this code, but it didn't work. :/

Yes, but it's not the same for a bar. The code's completely different.

That code would help you with the timer part of your question. You wanted to change the color and size of your timer and the timer in that example goes from white to red and also has the declaration of text size.

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:

Code: Select all

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 timer_range xalign 0.5 yalign 0.9 xmaximum 300 at alpha_dissolve style "timer_bar"

init -2:
    style timer_bar:
        is default
        left_bar=Image("myleftbar.png") #an example
    #[continue with all the styles you need to change]

I hope I'm correct, it appear you just want to create a different style for that.

Now I'm using:

Code: Select all

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 timer_range xalign 0.5 yalign 0.9 xmaximum 300 at alpha_dissolve style "timer_bar"

init -2:
    style timer_bar:
        is default
        left_bar=Image("bar.png")
        right_bar=Image("bar2.png")
        thumb=Image("bar3.png")

But...

File "game/script.rpy", line 69: expected 'simple_expression' not found.
left_bar=Image("bar.png")

The style statement doesn't use =s, and you probably don't need init -2 here.

Code: Select all

style timer_bar:
    is default
    left_bar Image("bar.png")
    right_bar Image("bar2.png")
    thumb Image("bar3.png")

Thanks!
