Re: Information in hud screens not autorefreshing

SOLVED! Resulting from a discussion on another site where I asked about this, the answer ended up being to update renpy. Two or three updates ago (that I did, not that were available), it broke some of my code, and once I realized that I stopped updating. The version I stopped at was 7.4.8.1895, now...

Re: Information in hud screens not autorefreshing

Maybe you need a `renpy.restart_interaction()` in the code that updates `money` or `location`? That forces renpy to update and redraw all screens, I believe. thank you for the suggestion - looking into it, have not had any success experimenting with yet do you have a suggestion for how to apply it?...

[SOLVED] Information in hud screens not autorefreshing

In my hud, I have imagebuttons to show things like inventory (booty) and location, each opens another screen for their individual displays. The inventory (booty/treasure chest) presently just displays the amount of money. If there is a change in money, or a change in location, when you open either i...

Re: Time display bug after updating to 7.4.7

...I tried #... $ daynumber_str = __("{color=#C0C0C0}{size=-20}%s %s{/size}{/color}") % (day) #... but that results in "TypeError: not enough arguments for format string"... Note the double %s in string - that means that there must be 2 variables, but you specified only one (day...

Re: Time display bug after updating to 7.4.7

That worked for that part of the display, thank you. What I used was # ... $ daytime_str = __("{color=#C0C0C0}{size=-24}%s %s{/size}{/color}") % (dayn, dtimen) #... textbutton daytime_str xalign 0.02 ypos 90 Now, how would I go about making a string for day, which keeps a running count of ...

Re: Time display bug after updating to 7.4.7

At this point I do not know with certainty how I originally set up any of this, though in the beginning it was different than it is now - although it has been functional as it is now for quite some time. The first instance defining the starting point for the time is early in the script, using $ dtim...

Re: Time display bug after updating to 7.4.7

I would have a guess that it has something to do with more aggressive const optimisation and displayable reuse. It is hard to say without seeing how dayn and dtimen are defined though. As a temporary measure, you can either use percent-substitution or build text in a variable and pass that to butto...

[SOLVED]: Time display bug after updating to 7.4.7

Trying to figure this out right now, but it's not actually a problem with my code, it is a problem that occurred after updating to 7.4.7, persisting into 7.4.8. Still works fine with 7.4.6. In my hud I have a date, day, and time of day display, with a time advance feature. This always worked perfect...

Layered Main Menu Background Image Animation

Does anyone know how you would create a layered menu animation? For example, I would like to do something like the following, only you can't define an image using show and behind the way you can in the script: image main_menu_anim1: "image1" "image2" behind "image1" ima...

Re: Layered images, animation layers, changing central layer

To actively set or change order you can use 'zorder' or the command 'behind' https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/displaying_images.html Thank you. This last bit was exactly what I needed! (you'd think in my random experimentation I would have tried something as obvious as adding "behind 'image'&quo...

Layered images, animation layers, changing central layer

This is likely (hopefully) a very newbie question and pretty basic stuff for most of you: What I'm trying to achieve is a scene that has a background fog animation, a central body that advances when you click, and a foreground fog animation. I really have not messed with layered images in ren'py bef...

Weblinks not working in scrolling screen

When using a screen with vbox that has a list long enough to make it a scrollable list, weblinks are not working. For example, the following fits in the window without scrolling and the links work, but when I make it longer, which automatically makes it a scrollable window (as I have done for a cred...
