Re: 6.10 Development

wishlist: show statements that reference tags without subtags should work but keep the current subtag (if an image designed as just the tag does not exist, probably). In short, sticky subtags. Ex: show eileen happy at center with None show eileen at left with charamove #would have to write "sho...

Re: Ren'Py 6.10.1 Released

I think if you'd actually make a game sometime instead of giving "pro" advice all the time, you'd understand what I'm talking about a little better, you clown.

Re: 2009 Year in Ren'Py

Sure, let me just throw away these 2 years of development time and start over.

(When was the last time you completely redid your game because Ren'Py keeps changing core functionality?)

Re: Is there a way to toggle Auto-Forward?

AFM is coded rather terribly in Ren'Py by default. It's possible to code around it (I did it in KS), but it's not a one-liner.

Re: CTC sound?

I think it would make a lot more sense just to add the ability to attach sounds to displayables generally.

And I don't even want to comment on the annoyance potential of ctc sounds.

Re: Ren'Py 6.10.1 Released

I give up. Like with the issue of center not being the same as the default position and nothing inheriting from it, I will uphold that it is terrible but if you don't want to believe me I won't waste my breath.

Re: script error

If you actually NEED a block that does nothing, there's the Pass_Statement. Which does nothing but makes a block not empty. It's the same in Python.

Re: Ren'Py 6.10.1 Released

What should the behavior at the end of this be? xalign stops animating and is fixed at 0.5, the rest continues. Not that hard. I really don't want to have two ATL blocks executing at the same time for the same image, with one of them having half of its side-effects expressed. I'd be inclined to agr...

Re: Ren'Py 6.10.1 Released

I use it to move and dissolve sprites at the same time when the top transition is already used form something else (usually another move). In any case, the thing that bugs me the most about this is that it's so treacherous - it only shows up when skipping. That means things that look perfectly fine ...

Re: Ren'Py 6.10.1 Released

A deliberate design fault.... *LOL* Get out, sane people are talking. I don't think it's faulty... I happen to think that snapping to a fixed position from a cyclical animation that must be preserved is the edge case here. If anything, logical behavior would be to not only preserve the parameter's ...

So it's not a bug, but a design fault then.

Re: Ren'Py 6.10.1 Released

Seems to me that Frame() is broken badly. At least, the engine crashes if you display an ui.frame with one set as background with TypeError: surface() takes exactly 2 arguments (1 given). This is definitely new in 6.10.1.

P.S. it only happens if tile is set to True.

Re: Ren'Py 6.10.1 Released

The problem is that ATL blocks run asynchronously from the script (i.e., they don't run faster when skipping), but just stop when the script skips ahead. That often leaves them hanging in an undefined position.
