Try this (may need the codecs python library): target = open(name_export, 'w+') target.write(" EXPORT\n") target.write(the_export.encode("UTF-8")) #or "ISO-8859-7" specifically for greeks chars. target.write("\n") target.close() There are a few python tricks that tackle this issue, so if this doesn'...

You can do it like this: "code" menu: "code": if variable1 <= variable2 <= variable3: jump code3 elif variable1 <= variable3 <= variable2: jump code2 etc. Not really better than nested ifs, rather an alternative, and can be suited better if you want to check for particular combinations only. Else if...

You may be referring to this. It's a great tutorial for adding imagebuttons to your textbox, but the process should be similar for imagemaps.

try adding a selected_hover state along with idle and hover states (or anything else you use), like: imagemap: idle "gui/imagemap_idle.png" hover "gui/imagemap_hover.png" selected_hover "gui/imagemap_sel_hover.png" or if you use the auto imagemap definition, just add a whatever-the-image-name-is_sel...

How can I reposition the text so that it appears below the right image area, or at least where the mouse is? Right now it just shows up in the corner. This is how tooltips work as default. Since (I suppose) you use an imagemap for that screen, or imagebuttons for that matter, it could be easier to ...

{u}Text{/u} does work as intended. Did you have a space between the slash and "u", as per your post? Because it's not needed.

Here's a thread that explains (with code examples) how to achieve this effect.

Ah, cool. Never used it myself, just stumbled upon it on the wiki and it seemed more straightforward.

There are all possible more or less with the stock DSE Framework (or can be done with just a bit of tinkering). No need to try and recreate it's whole function from the scratch.

I think these 2 should be the other way around. First show the movie displayable and then play the movie file of your choice.

Also, perhaps you may wanna check renpy.movie_cutscene. It could suit better the style you try to mimic.

I suppose you are referring to the {nw} text tag. This is a "no wait" tag that tells Ren'Py to advance onto the next text block without waiting for user input.

It is possible to some extent. Ren'Py supports video playback and timed menus to choose an answer (the latter not out-of-the-box but not overly hard to achieve it either). That said, you'll probably have to do at least some coding in Ren'Py/Python to mimic Telltale's gameplay style.

or foo = bar def example_function(): if foo == bar: #this will throw an error since there isn't an already declared foo variable local to the function. do stuff return Are you sure this throws an error? It is not the same to use a variable (as here, with the 'if') than to change it. Global variable...

This does work indeed as philat said. Apparently the evaluation field on ConditionSwitch allows for multiple conditions binded with logical expressions, even if there is no hint in the document for that and a text editor won't highlight it. You can't know if you don't try

Global and local variables are a Python thing, rather than Ren'Py. Defining a variable as global allows you to reference and manipulate it inside functions or share it between functions without hiccups. A global variable named "var" will carry initial value and value changes across functions and gen...
