Re: What on earth is an init block?

An init python statement is pretty much the same as an init statement, except that it also initializes Python for you. So instead of having to type 'python:' before starting a block with Python code in it (you know those lines with $ before them?), it'll basically give you a space where you don't ne...

Re: how to use DSE?

Have you read this page? I've never used/seen the DSE before, but my guess is that it's the first function described that you need.

Re: Need Help finding "random sentence generator"

Maybe you're looking for something like this? http://www.renpy.org/wiki/renpy/doc/cookbook/Making_random_choice_with_some_outcomes_more_likely_than_others Err....that's a complicated way of doing it I suppose. renpy.random.choice is probably an easier option if you don't want to go through with inde...

Re: Looking for Artists

Ohh, sounds like a cool story! I'm not much of an artist myself, but for the sake of those who are more artistically inclined, you might want to mention how much work you're expecting them to finish, how much time they have, what kind of style you're looking for, etc. That way they'll know what they...

Re: Quesions on DSE

It's okay, you'll figure things out eventually! But can you post the traceback and the lines of codes it's referring to? We can't figure out what's wrong unless you post those (believe me, there are a ton of possible errors that can happen. I've probably made half of them happen before).

Re: Quesions on DSE

For starters, next time you post codes and the like, make sure you use the code tags! It'll make things a lot easier for everybody to read. As for your actual question, I'm assuming you're asking what file to put these in (as in script.rpy and options.rpy, etc)? Err...well it doesn't really matter, ...

Re: Please tell me about your country and town/city

Umm...how about Cayucos, CA (USA)? It's a nice little town on the coast, set up to be a tourist stop but not quite there yet. Lots of little Mom n' Pop shops (I don't remember seeing any big names last time I was there), with almost everything across the street from the beach. A bit cold for swimmin...

Re: Did you forget a ui.close()?

Huh, never would've guessed. Thanks!

And yeah, I'm still debating on which to use. I still haven't used screen language outside of the python definitions, but this might be a good time to get used to it.

Did you forget a ui.close()?

I've been hitting up the forum for help a little more often than I'd like lately, so thank you all for your patience u.u I'm making a screen for a practice game, on which you can view the stats, abilities, and various random information on each character. The entire thing sets up and displays correc...

Re: "type" not defined?

O...h...... I feel really dumb now, especially since I rewrote all of the functions already. No, apricotorange was right about me using a variable named type somewhere within that very same function (multiple times and it wasn't even a long function, so how did that get by me more than 3 times?!

Re: "type" not defined?

I went through all of my .rpy files with Ctrl+f again to make sure, but I don't have anything assigned to a variable called 'type.' Lots of bad experiences with variable names messing up function calls, so I avoid naming things too similarly. Ah well, I'll just work around it. Thanks though!

"type" not defined?

This is definitely an error I wasn't expecting to pop up. Pythonically speaking, there's a built-in function called 'type' which lets you know what class an object is like so: >>> a = [1, 2, 3] >>> type(a) <class 'list'> >>> class anything: def __init__(self, value): self.value = value def send_back...

Wow, these are amazing! I'm getting attached to 'Story About the Past' already (I'm a sucker for melancholic songs). I've no projects to commission you for, but I'm sure somebody will be hunting you down for music soon. Good luck!

Re: I hate myself...

If you ever meet an artist who is pleased with all the work they've ever done and don't want to make changes to any of them, let me know. I want to punch them. I'm not much of an artist myself, but I do think your style looks very clean! A little jealous? Maybe. As for preventing yourself from going...

Unknown Style Property (Fixed)

Figures that the first time I pick up my code in a month, I make an error that I can't find the origin of. The usual process of 'go back and change whatever you did since the last time you ran this code and go through it until the error comes up again' didn't work very well, seeing that I've been ch...
