Whether elif does or does not do anything doesn't really matter, in this case. Irena put square brackets around the Jade, Brad etc statement, which should fix the problem. When I was doing my own testing with your code, I too, found out that the problem was with that particular if statement. It mean...

Okay, I've identified some problems with your code. Firstly, you used hide Bd Sprite before you tried out using this method. Hide removes the sprite shown with Show. You need to use Show again. show Bd Sprite Bd "hi" hide Bd Sprite show P Sprite P "also hi" hide P Sprite show Bd ...

An unfortunate thing about this method is that for the first time a character shows up in a scene, you still have to use the show statement.

There is! It's explained here: https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/dialogue.html#say-with-image-attributes Basically you define the character tag when you define the character, and once you've done that you can show images tagged with that character next to your dialogue. So with your example, if you def...

I'm a bit confused. Couldn't you then use xpos and ypos to move the now left aligned names until they fit into the Namebox?

Seconding the above. Twine's great because it's a game software itself, so you can also create a prototype of your game using your notes, and make sure all of your game logic is working.

Use [ code][/code] (without spaces) to show code with indents intact.

if randchara == m: and if randchara == s: should be if randchara == 'm': and if randchara == 's', because they're strings not the name of variables.

Have you tried playing around with xpos? If not, this section of the documentation should help: https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/gui.html#nvl

If you want text to be displayed with quotation marks around them, you have to do something like the following: define e = Character("Eileen", what_prefix='"', what_suffix='"') The above example was taken from the dialogue documentation page here: https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/d...

It should be like this

Since we're talking about games that deal with non-binary or gender neutral pronouns that aren't set now, let me go ahead and do a bit of a case study on Fallen London . So we're on the same page, Fallen London is not a Visual Novel. Fallen London is a browser-based interactive fiction game. It has ...

I've been thinking this over a while. Figuring out the best way to display dialogue vs narration is one thing, but doing it in a way that incorporates both ADV and NVL? In the end the only "solution" I can offer is having the ADV text box at the top of the screen, which is even less conven...

Unless someone is exceedingly anal about getting every single details about societal norms correct, or just generally dislikes the idea of the use of "they" in a sentence, I honestly don't think anyone would even care. Like. The average person isn't gonna be looking that deeply into thing...

To the best of my knowledge, not really, and especially not in recent years. If you search the term on these forums, less than 300 posts pop up. On Itch.io, nothing is tagged as such.

I'm interested as well, but I've only heard a little about it. When does it start and end? It runs the whole month of March. The idea is that creators or teams try to complete a small project, start to finish, in just the one month. Kind of a motivator to release something and get practice. A lot o...
