Skip setting is not reset after returning from replay

#1 Post by AXYPB »

In Ren'Py 6.99.6.739, the Skip switch is not reset after returning from a replay to the menu, either with renpy.end_replay() or manually. As a result, the skip setting is retained until it is disabled either with a press of the Skip key or returning to the game and toggling the Skip switch in the quick menu. This particularly affects menu transitions and the CG gallery, which is likely to be accessed after a replay. Is there a way to forcibly toggle the Skip setting when a replay is terminated?

I am not sure I understand 100% what the issue is, but do you mean something like

$config.skipping = None

?

I need the skip to end unconditionally when a replay terminates, before the transition defined in config.game_main_transition is called.

That makes sense. I'll make the change when I get back home. I'm tracking it as:
