Re: I need that the player can't skip the movie

Since you did not mention trying, have you tried this solution from m_from_space? This looks like a very good way to do what you're trying to achieve. For this to happen you have to create a movie Displayable and just show it to the player (via a screen might be the best solution). https://www.renpy...

Re: I need that the player can't skip the movie

Try using renpy.pause after renpy.movie_cutscene, like so

Code: Select all

    $renpy.movie_cutscene("myfile.avi")
    $renpy.pause(2, hard=True)

Re: Imagebuttons causing lag when hovering

I used to have some problems with focus_mask True, and have seem a lot of people getting issues with it as well. I don't have it anymore though, maybe a Renpy update solved it. Try turning focus_mask off and see if the problem persists

Re: Renpy 8.0.1 Exception: Properties are not allowed here.

The error comes from zorder 99. Remove all the lines containing it, and the code should run fine. If you want to use zorder, do something like this: screen a_screen: zorder 5 instead of writing it in a conditional statement. A screen with zorder 10 will be displayed on top of a screen with zorder 5....

Re: Roll back after right click?

I suppose you could give your players the choice to configure the interaction themselves, through a persistent variable, in the preferences screen. For example, they could choose between: - show pause menu - perform a rollback - do nothing at all Now, I'm no expert on keymaps, but I've done some tes...

Setting xanchor and yanchor to 0.5 did the job for me, but I'm not sure if it's the best way to do this. textbutton "hello": anchor (0.5, 0.5) text_style styleHover action NullAction() The textbutton might not be placed exactly where it's supposed to be but I'm sure that could easily be fi...

One way I can think of is putting the menu on the right in its own screen, then having the menu screen inside the other one with use This is how it works for the navigation menu (for exemple, save and load screens both use the navigation menu).

Re: Expected Statement error

Hi,

Use transform instead of Transform.

Like this :

Code: Select all

init:
    transform sroLTxT:
        xpos 0.0
        ypos 0.0
        linear 0.6 xpos -5.0
