Re: try to make a game like summertime saga

Thank you very much. I personally only want to know one thing they did with Summertime saga and that is how they did the computer interaction. You can interact with the computer and actually type the password into the box without it being in the chat window. It also looks like it's somehow nested wi...

Could you explain why you'd use one over the other? Are imagemaps not as performance friendly as imagebuttons?

Thanks.

Re: Stopping the game from progressing to next label, unless a button is clicked

I doubt I could explain it any better than this page here https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screens.html#call-screen i'm afraid. (Not sure if it's outdated or not, That's usually the biggest issue is finding up-to-date documentation.) The call screen statement shows a screen, and then hides it again at...

Re: Stopping the game from progressing to next label, unless a button is clicked

It's because it never gets to run the $,if section because it was Returned back to its position from where it was called from and obviously indenting them sections once would put them within the vbox which will throw you that error.

Re: Stopping the game from progressing to next label, unless a button is clicked

Hey, thanks for the reply! Unfortunately this code doesn't work, it gives an error "jump is not a valid argument for vbox statement" Looks like you indented the sections a little too much. Here is a screenshot of what it should look like (Obviously changed to fit your needs) but notice th...

Re: Stopping the game from progressing to next label, unless a button is clicked

You could do it a couple of ways. Personally I'd just use a simple menu like: label adventure: "You stand at two crossroads, which one do you pick?" menu: "North": jump North "South": jump South That's just using a simple menu though for your problem you could use "...

I'm very new to Ren'Py, but became hooked on it when I played an interactive game and wanted to dabble in it myself. screen phone_look: imagemap: auto "imagemap_%s.png" hotspot(592,339,46,36,) action Jump("phone_lookat") How do I make an if statement out of this? (So; if player h...
