Re: Plans for multiline input?

As you probably know from all the help you've been giving me, Jeffster, I would be super-happy if you were to work on something like this!

Re: Using Mouse to Place the Cursor in an Input Screen

Thank you, Jeffster! I will investigate this later in the week.

I hear what you're saying. I am creating something very different from a traditional visual novel. It's a tool for creating player-character backgrounds for tabletop RPGs. As such, folks will be writing a little more.

Re: Weird Bug: Some (Not All) Input Screens Clashing with Hotkeys

Okay, found the issue. Definitely my fault as an amateur coder. I had a $renpy.transition(dissolve) statement in a screen that I call later in the game. Once I commented it out, everything worked fine. I did not suspect that a screen I hadn't called yet would cause the problem. I was able to find it...

Re: Weird Bug: Some (Not All) Input Screens Clashing with Hotkeys

Thank you for your reply, Jeffster! Your code doesn't fix my current problem, but it will definitely help me clean up my code. Would you happen to know where the "secret" save data is stored on a Mac? Basically the equivalent of %appdata% on Windows? I want to erase as much data as possibl...

(SOLVED, after much suffering) Weird Bug: Some (Not All) Input Screens Clashing with Hotkeys

Would really be grateful for help, as this is a maddening bug! I have a series of input screens I use for character creation at the start of the game. For weeks, they've all been working fine. Today, the sixth input screen, which uses the exact same code as the previous five, decided to sometimes ac...

Re: Screen to Track Number of Characters in Renpy.Input

Just as I suspected, someone who knows what they're doing could figure it out in a second.

Screen to Track Number of Characters in Renpy.Input (Solved)

Hi all--I am using text input screens extensively in a game where players input a great deal of text. My input screens limit the number of characters players can input to 250 characters. I would like to have a tiny screen that shows how many characters they have left as they input, updated dynamical...

Moveoutleft and moveinright at the same time?

Hey gang, just wondering if it's possible to have one image leave and another enter at the same time using moveoutleft and moveinright. More correctly: I'm sure it's possible, and it's probably trivial; I just don't know how to do it. :) All help greatly appreciated!
