Re: How and how often do you back up projects

Contrary to everyone else I use GitLab instead of Bitbucket, not sure why, there was probably something I didn't like about Bitbucket in the past, I don't really remember now. Doesn't really matter, as the principle is the same and they too have free private repositories. If you're collaborating on ...

Re: User defined function for code efficiency

Ah wait that's wrong actually. You either want to pass a string name of the variable you want to change: def Function(var_name): real_var = eval(var_name) real_var += 50 And you run this with $ Function("my_awesome_variable") where somewhere else you got $ my_awesome_variable = 15 for exam...

Re: User defined function for code efficiency

Yeah, that's not gonna work. You're trying to mix two things here - take a bunch of screen language commands and wrap them in a python function. You need to stick to python only and for that you need to replace all your "show screen x" with "renpy.show_screen('x')" and so on. So ...

Re: Renpy Inventory System Class Errors

Yes, heat waves, broken coffee machines, cats stepping on the keyboard and deleting parts of code, and other acts of God, are all perfectly fine professional programmer excuses :D

Re: Renpy Inventory System Class Errors

And again python is right ;) "TypeError: 'Container' object is not iterable" because it's not. for item in workbag Won't work without making some weird meta methods in the python class (can't help with that as I'm not that good yet), but you can make it work this way: for item in workbag.i...

Re: LayeredImage Tutorial

Hm, now that I've tested it it works, but not the way I expected. I define the LayeredImage layeredimage npc: always: 'female-body' group head: attribute black default attribute pink Then I can use it as "side" images (not real side images but good enough) label npcs_are_talking: show npc ...

Re: Renpy Inventory System Class Errors

NameError: global name 'InvItem' is not defined Well, it's not. (seems code blocks can't bold things, but you're missing the underscore when you're using the InvItem in the method) class Inv_Item(object): def add_item(self, item, amount=1): self.inventory.append(InvItem(item, amount)) After fixing ...

Re: LayeredImage Tutorial

Nice tutorial, though making it a game is a bit strange. But I can read the code on github well enough, thanks for providing that :) I really wanted to like the LayeredImage but I encountered a problem that I couldn't figure out how to pass the attributes into a screen - not to be shown with show, b...
