Hm, that would work, but defeats the point of being able to reference the Drag via an object name.

I didn't think of using a block for the as-attribute, thank you. In your example, you either set the position in the Drag() declaration or with a button. How would I set the position when I create the drag? I want to use the Drag() as a template, but add it at a dynamic position without having to cl...

The docs say that if I want to reference a Drag after creating it, I should create it as a displayable. So I did this: init: image bento_rice = "Bento/bento_rice.png" init python: bento_ingredients["rice"] = Drag(d="bento_rice", droppable=False, dragged=bento_dragged) s...

That's funny. I always imagined screens to behave like classes in that regard, so that I *can* define local functions that exist in the namespace of that screen only; and I'm sure I already used this to have small specialized functions there, probably small and straightforward enough (like a pythago...

Not that I don't believe you, but why is it then that the callback function works?

How can I use functions that are inside screens? I tried understanding dragging when I wrote this, and the card_dragged function that is the drag callback works flawlessly, but when it wants to call the function snapcard , I get an error that it is not defined. I know I can just put the functions ou...

My thoughts: A fully customizable self-insert blank slate MC can never be an integral part of the story. Sure, he/she experiences it and takes part in it, but so could anybody else. A pre-set MC can have a character background that is deeply connected to the events in the game. Past, personality, qu...

Look at the description for input:
https://renpy.org/doc/html/screens.html ... nput#input

You are only showing the console screen, but you need to call it. You can scrap the function for toggling the screen completely, a called screen will hide when it returns something, which input does.

Why not make it the other way around? Instead of making the top image transparent, you could paste a portion of the "lower" image on top of the top image where the cursor is. First get the mouse coordinates, then crop the X-ray image to whatever it should show at these coordinates, then di...

You can randomize using renpy.random: https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/other.html#renpy-random You can put anything pretty much anywhere on the screen. A minigame is usually confined to its own screen (that is, Renpy "screen"), which contains objects that you can place with attributes like a...

Oh, thank you, that's handy!
I've been absent for a while so I probably missed a lot of little additions.

Is there a way to use the "return" statement to return not to the point where the label was called, but to any other label? Alternatively, is there a way to remove the last call from the stack so I can just "jump" where I want to be? Otherwise I need to use variables and do stran...

variable = ["hat"] means it is a list. With variable.append("socks"), you can add more elements to the list, or you make it variable = ["hat", "socks", "shirt"] from the beginning. Basically the same as in Twine, just minor changes to syntax.

A! Especially since in my experience (and I was also told this) Ren'py's engine is not exact enough to sync music and animations.
