One more question, actually. Is there a way I can make the wait a hard pause? As is with changing the writing speed with the character per second {cps} command, it seems that if someone clicks before the text is finished being written out, it jumps ahead and puts the text on the screen before the wa...

Oh, perfect. Thank you so much, that's just what I needed. I didn't realize that the narrator was already built in like that.

Our head programmer found a work around, basically they were able to find a way to make each screen dissolve out, so it makes the textbox and the sprite dissolve.

This works well for the characters! However, our narrator actually doesn't have a defined speaker, it's just None. Is there a way we can define it while not having to write a speaker? So the code is like: character "Hello! "This is narration." character 2 "Hi there." I'd pre...

Is there a way to delay when the text begins to write on the screen? With how it's set up, the text for the new screen immediately starts writing after you click next. However, I have some custom textbox transitions and I would like for the text to not start writing until the textbox has finished co...

Hey there, I'm looking for a way to hide my sprite side images with dissolve after they're on the screen! We are using our own custom code to bring them onto the screen, because we want the playable character to enter on the left and NPCs to enter on the right side. We have a variable that assigns w...

I have a few different textbox sizes that I want to use for my dialogue in the game. Right now, I have it so that the game picks the textbox size based off of the string length, and while it works well enough, it's not perfect. I have to overshoot the string length to make sure that the text never r...

That worked perfectly, thank you so much!

I'm working on a game with a dress-up screen. On this screen, I have an image of the main character and two buttons. I want to make the MC image move left/right offscreen, change into a new outfit, and move out from the other side of the screen when you press the buttons. screen outfit_game(): defau...

Hey so I have the size of my narration box set up to choose the different backgrounds based on string size. the problem is that the string sizes aren't consistent. if words are longer, they get pushed to the next line sooner and vice versa. This means that frequently the textbox has a lot of white s...

I’ve been messing with this and have come to discover it’s not an issue with the text not being at the front. The problem is that the transform is cropping starting from the top of the window so the words are cutting cropped off. How can I change the starting point for the crop? This has been drivin...

I'm adding transforms to my say screen, however whenever I use the crop in my transform it sends the window to the back and the top line of text is buried under the namebox. I'm stretching my textbox so I can't resize the namebox, as that includes the portion of the top of the textbox that's not sup...

This is great, thank you so much!! :D One last question, I know how to use the transforms on show but is there a way I could program it to use a separate transform when the boxes leave, instead of then just disappearing? I know there’s an on hide statement but I haven’t pieced together how to do it ...

Hello! I have done a lot of heightened customization with my say screen to created automatically resizing textboxes on the right side, middle, and left side of the screen. The playable character box shows on the left side, the narration in the middle, and NPCs on the right side. Now, I am wanting to...

I've messed around with this some more and have made some progress. However, I'm having an issue I'd like help with if possible. You see, I was able to get the textbox to resize. However, I want to make the namebox a separate window so that it won't get stretched with everything else. The resizing w...
