Ah, that didn't occur to me. For anyone else reading, you just need to put it in a python block or as a one-line statement: Thanks for the help!

That seems like what I need, but I'm not sure what the actual syntax for using it is. I tried just putting it in verbatim and it didn't work. To be clear, I just pasted this in the appropriate place:

I've been trying to search the documentation for a line that will stop skipping - that is, players who have clicked the "skip" button should always stop skipping at certain points regardless of if they've read the text before. In case my reasoning is wrong, let me explain the issue. The ga...

That does it, thanks!

Thanks for the quick answer! I should probably have mentioned that I'm using the legacy theme, not the GUI interface. I think the relevant part looks like this: window: style "mm_root" I tried something very much like what you suggested, just in case the screen could take if/else statement...

Basically, I want to have several different title screens. When the player starts up the VN for the first time, they'll see the first image, but after they progress far enough in the story, the title screen will change to the second image, and so on. How should I do this? I set persistent data when ...

Adding what_ypos=n is normal practice. Did you modify something else on screens.rpy and gui.rpy? Heh, yes. I've been working on this project for a few months, so I've fiddled with almost everything. I actually don't have a gui.rpy, I presume because I started this game in an older version? Thanks f...

Ah, sorry for misunderstanding your suggestion, trooper6. And thank you for your help, indoneko. I think I'm most of the way there now. Defining the character as you stated worked, but it resulted in each line of text starting well below the top of the text box. I managed to fix that by adding what_...

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions so far. you might need to modify the say screen, so that it accepts namebox image Looking at screens.rpy, I don't see anything that jumps out as me as a switch for this. Is there something I need to add? If so, could someone help me with what that might be? T...

I'd like to have my characters' names be displayed as images, not text. Exactly as is requested/explained in the first part of this thread: https://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=6483 I feel like there must be a straightforward way to do this, as suggested there: define ban = Char...

I have a navigation system where players can click different areas to go to that place. I do this by calling a screen with imagebuttons. The problem is that the player is able to roll forward past the screen to the next label. I assume there is an easy way to stop this, but after looking at a bunch ...

What I'm trying to do is create a screen where players can navigate to different parts of a town visually. It doesn't need any special features beyond what can be found in an imagemap, but the problem is that, as I understand it, hotspots can only be defined as rectangles. The image is a complex one...

Yes, passing things to screens was one of the parts I just didn't grasp. I think I understand the basics now, thank you for helping.

Ah, sorry, I may not have expressed my problem clearly enough. I did my very best to make a basic framework, let me show what I have to demonstrate my coding ability or lack thereof: (clipped because outdated) So you see how I'm just setting up the character images and stats before each battle. It's...

EDIT: I'm not sure I explained this clearly. Please see post #3 for my best attempt and further questions. Original Post: Basically, I have some artistic talent, but I'm in over my head on the coding side. To play to my strengths, I would like to make a simple combat system that relies on nice visua...
