Can you tell me if I can use layered images with that, or if I need to tweak the code for that? Yup, layered images should work too, you'd just use the layered image name in the character definition: layeredimage gray_sprite: # layered image definition define gray_char = ZoomCharacter('chr1', image...

The Placeholder class is used for mocking stuff up when you don't have real character sprites to hand. You won't need them in your version at all. The show and hide statements use image names, while the lines beginning with c1 and c2 are character say statements. I''ve tweaked the example below to b...

EDIT Ooops, misinterpreted this as your expectation being that the behaviour should match the current documentation, which having now reread the topic title I see isn't the case. Redundant reiteration follows ... awkward! :oops: I think this is perhaps a documentation issue, as the behaviour and se...

You're on the right track with config.character_callback . The problem you're facing where it appears not to be working is due to how changing language works, it restarts the current interaction. This means that when you switch language, the preferences.language setting is updated, then the current ...

Disclaimer: I'm not sure that this is the best way, or the most Ren'Py-y way to do this, but here's one possibility. Note that in this instance the zoom is unconditional, and always uses the same transforms, but if necessary you could parameterise those things to make it more flexible if needed. tra...

I think you're meant to use it more like this, but haven't had a chance to test it: layeredimage bob: always: "bobBody.png" group face: attribute face1 default "bobface1.png" attribute face2 "bobface2.png" label start: bob "Hello." show bob face2 with Dissolve...

Per K Grok is correct. It's also possible to use the as keyword to associate a tag with the shown images which lets renpy know it should replace them, rather than layer them, so this would also work and avoids the need to manage the hides manually, think of it as all the images belonging to a group,...

Would reordering slightly to achieve this be acceptible? It should be possible to do this: label some_label_name: show background beach eileen "Hello!" jack "Hello to you Eileen" call screen some_buttons # using call here will wait until the screen exits before proceeding return ...

I suspect that at least len may be problematic, as it's a commonly used top-level function in python. I'd expect redefining like this it to give you some grief.

You can provide more than one action by placing them in a tuple/list. So:

You're on the right track, but at_list is expecting an iterable type. In python that's typically a list or a tuple (although there are others). I've not had a chance to test this, but I believe you just need to wrap holdleft in a list. Here's a before and after: renpy.show(image, at_list=holdleft) #...

Aha, that makes sense, thanks for explaining :)

Ooops, re-reading the OP I see I didn't do a great job of articulating the feature. This wasn't a suggestion that different parts of the LI use different transitions, only that when the LI knows an attribute within a certain group will be updated, it uses a transition against the entire LI, such tha...

Following on from Donmai's comment: I believe you'll get a syntax error if you try to use the at keyword twice on the same line, so you just need to stack them: label start: show e onlayer screens show exclamation at truecenter, shake onlayer screens Also, as an aside, the xalign 0.4 yalign 0.4 part...

First, all of the options presented by xela will work for you. I'm just going to expand a little on the expression keyword, which is the way to do what you're asking without leaving renpy and jumping into python. The expression keyword causes the remainder of the line to be evaluated and the result ...
