It's possible that this could be fixed just by adding:

Code: Select all

define config.allow_underfull_grids = True

Wow.

Yep. That fixed it. No other code changes necessary. Thanks a lot! That was fast!

For my curiosity and education, do you or anyone else know why this is necessary in 8, but not 7.4.11?

Okay, so I could probably just stick with Ren'Py 7.4.11 for my game, but I'm not far along in developing it and I'd really like to be using Ren'Py 8. I have custom code that takes Menu choices in the script and presents them to the players as a grid of text buttons. The code works perfectly in Ren'P...

Well, the main thing to remember is that in any good story the protagonist needs to be the one driving the narrative forward. It is their decisions and actions that propel the story forward - a bad story is one in which the protagonist is just reacting to events that are happening externally to them...

self.aspects = [] self.aspects = aspects That works . . . . https://media2.giphy.com/media/czYviM4rx9oxFliHHj/giphy.gif?cid=ecf05e47navw6swgospv781q4c9se14bqmw7lr0y4t8om2lx&rid=giphy.gif&ct=g I can't believe how much time I spent working on the wrong end of the problem. It never occurred to me that...

Okay, so I'm not even sure if I'm phrasing this question correctly, but my Google-fu and Python terminology have failed to net me any information that works for what I am trying to do, and you all were super helpful with my last coding roadblock, so here goes: init python: import renpy.store as stor...

If you want to take better advantage of python, consider this: CODE There are ways to tighten this code up even more, but doing it right depends on knowing more about which functions you're actually going to use most often. I really appreciate it, and it does seem like a more elegant solution, but ...

def equip(self, clothing_item): head_slot_name = getattr(clothing_item, 'name') head_slot_descrip = getattr(clothing_item, 'description') ↓ def equip(self, clothing_item): store.head_slot_name = clothing_item.name store.head_slot_descrip = clothing_item.description Thank you. That works perfectly f...

Okay, so first, I'm not a great coder. I know just enough to get myself into trouble. I've been setting up a quite complicated game using NVL style dialogue and I've gotten nearly everything I want working, but I've been hung up on one thing for an entire week, and though I've been studying Python t...

I just want to say I've found your videos quite helpful ever since I found them months ago. Just wanted other forum users to know this is great content if they stumble on this thread.

It is great to see your practical applications to go with the Python code I've been learning on my own. Thumbs up.

There's something decidedly creepy about the childhood friend (or whoever) seeing the good in my character if options allow me to make the character a person who literally has no good aspects. I can't think of any games in which I'm allowed to choose to be a completely unlikeable asshole and yet ch...

Oh boy...there are a number here that I despise: 1. The "destined" lovers. I get how infatuation can feel that way, but it's a problematic trope. 2. The "we show each other love by hating on each other". Teasing is fine, but when it gets to the point of negging, it's icky. And if it gets to the poi...

Congrats, Papillon. I backed the Kickstarter, but I waited until the release to play. Didn't want to spoil anything for myself with the unfinished version. Using my Steam key to download now!

That’s a fair assessment I think. Would it be ok if I pm’d you with my plot idea. I still think it’s different enough from what you described to be not a giant middle finger to the audience. Would you be willing to let me know what you think? Sure. I could let you know how much in danger of running...

The "It was all a dream" trope is VERY disliked, and for good reason. It invalidates the stakes of your storytelling, and without stakes there is no tension, no character growth, no real redemption. The Wizard of Oz movie pulled this, and while it (maybe) seemed clever at the time, it wasn't what th...

And what would they tell you that would be helpful if they emailed you for support, unless they had an actual description of what went wrong? There are many variables that could lead to a crash, and them telling you - "It crashed when I went to talk to this NPC" might not be helpful if the reason fo...
