Okay, that makes a lot of sense, actually, I somehow imagined having the logic inside the screen was a bad idea. And indeed my loop breaks by itself, bad example, I meant in the case of a loop like while True, but this isnt the case here. Thanks a lot, Alex.

Don't know if this will help, but I kind of solved this problem by creating a blank character that says nothing: define nothing = Character('', window_background=None) #This is the blank character, kind of a placeholder label start: "Changing scenes." window hide scene bg meadow with fade ...

OK, first of all I know Ren'Py screens do not support while loops, but please hear me out on this one: I'm writing a simple battle system, and for the battle itself I need a loop that checks if the party leader and the enemy leader are alive, so when one of them dies, the battle ends. Theoretically ...

Oh, you re right, its because With expects a transition instead of a transform. Try your original code but put the if statement to the konoko frame, and inside the if use the at statement, add at konoko_show if hidden and at konoko_hide if visible, and the like. I hope that made sense, cant make an ...

As you said, VNs are a lot more than people think. I like VNs because most of the time the stories are downright amazing, even the silliest ones have a bit of depth, and you can enjoy them in any way you want. Most of the time you can save at any moment, you can go back if you made a mistake or if y...

Any idea how to have the default be that it displays nothing?

You mean like make it display no text? Make the values empty strings.

Code: Select all

default mainfolder = [{"sender":" ","subject":" ","email":" ",},]

I see, it might be because With() is receiving "konoko_show" and "konoko_hide" as strings, try removing
the " " and see if it works.

I solved this problem by making a function that changes a character's name directly. init python: def input_name(character): new_name = renpy.input("What is your name?", length=9) new_name = new_name.strip() if not new_name: #So if the player hits enter the default name is used. pass else:...

Try using the on statement in your screen to call your transform whenever the screen is shown or hidden.

EDIT: I linked to the wrong section, really sorry. Refer to philat's post below for the correct links.

Try renpy.get_screen()

Code: Select all

hotspot (380, 4, 52, 36):
    if renpy.get_screen('example_screen'):
        action Hide('example_screen', fade)
    else:
        action Show('example_screen', dissolve)

You should define your variables outside of the start label using the 'default' statement.

Code: Select all

default ls_points = 0

label start:
    
    menu:
         "Hug her.":
      
             $ ls_points += 1

    "Affection points: [ls_points]."

Try the 'use' statement. In your quick_menu: default phone_on = False screen quick_menu(): zorder 100 tag menu if quick_menu: if phone_on == True: use phone_menu() imagemap: auto "gui/QuickMenu_%s.png" alpha False hotspot (221, 8, 39, 34) action Preference("auto-forward", "t...

The standard way Ren'py receives user input is with the renpy.input function, when you call it you assign the input to a variable for later use. Here's an example: init python: def input_name(character): new_name = renpy.input("What is your name?", length=9) new_name = new_name.strip() if ...

trooper6 is right, I am aware of the importance of default, I didnt mention it because I assumed it could have been defined elsewhere in another file where the code for the inventory would be.

LiveComposite with ConditionSwitch's work really nicely, kind of what Mammon was saying. I use it for any number of expressions because it just seems... better? though that might just be a personal preference. Here is an example: image bob = LiveComposite((0,0), (0,0), "bob_base.png", (0,...
