Hmm... Good question, not actually sure about that one. You're right in that it should be possible, and probably deserving of its own topic.

No problem!
Yes, the "scene" statement can be used for anything as well, including character sprites. However, it clears anything else that was on the screen.

Thank you! I opened it a few minutes ago, and it's already making things a lot clearer.

You don't need to clear the entire screen with the scene statement.

Just use:
Alternatively, if you just want the effect, you could use:
Hopefully this helped!

Hi everyone, I'm a bit confused about how Ren'Py positions sprites relative to their x-position on the screen. When positioning sprites in the game, 0.0 references the left side, 0.5 for the center, and 1.0 for the right side. Sounds simple, except I'm not sure what they're using as a reference poin...

Yes! It worked! I actually tried something similar before to no avail, but this time, I created an image in-script of the background image but removed the "bg" tag. If I don't, it'll remove the other background and still be behind the character sprites. As for performance issues, while I t...

I've fiddled a bit with layers beforehand, but I haven't come across a solution yet. It seems as though both the background and character sprites are kept on the same "master" layer, so that doesn't seem to help much, unless I put all my sprites on a user-defined layer, which seems like it...

Hi everyone, At a certain point in the game, the player can choose an option to look at his surroundings. When the option is chosen, their sprite disappears to give the player a full shot of the background. Unfortunately, when the sprite has to reappear, I have to use the "show" command to...

I also got it to work. Very interesting!
Not being an expert programmer by any means, I'm not sure if it is better than the regular ol' variable way, but sometimes being simple to use is enough.

Thank you!

That would work, but is there a better way of doing it? Maybe one that doesn't make use of so many variables? I could do that, but because I'm going to be doing this all throughout my game, it would result in me either using a couple hundred variables, or reusing the same variables a couple hundred ...

Hi everyone, I want options in a specific menu to unlock after another option in the same menu is chosen. For instance, I would go: menu options: "Option 1": "You have chosen option 1." jump options "Option 2" if Option 1 was chosen: "This option is only available ...

You know, that's a very good point. I could just skip to the main part of the song... As for the link, the person's example doesn't work as stated. When I try to unpause with $ fading_pause(), I just get an error. "TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for *: 'NoneType' and 'int'" I even ...

Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to work, even after renaming my variable "red".

Say I have a particularly long song with a long opening. Suddenly, a mysterious person pops up and another track plays. Then, you find out that person was really your close friend, so the first song can continue playing. I don't want to start the first song all over again, so how can I play it back ...

Sorry, totally forgot about this post! Just wanted to say thanks, it works!
