Highly doubt this is still supported, but I was wondering how I'd be able to run the event system without using the day planner.

I did precisely this for my nanoreno game last month, so its definitely possible.
If all you need are the events, just include the
dse-event_dispatcher.rpy and use your own version of the
dse-events.rpy file.
Then you can just call this anytime you want to check and run an event:
The main caveat i found was not being able to use the
event.depends function, and instead i think i had to use
event.happened for any events that required other events to take place before they could.

Ahh, thank you! Do you know if there is a way to make the 'act ==' part work too? So I can at least put things at different parts of the day? Also does the event.happened work in the same way or is there anything different I need to be wary of?

Alright, I've done exactly what you've described, created my own events, copied the dispatch and called the events_run_period. The entire thing starts crashing.

Can you post some details about the crash? And/or post your code? It's easier to debug if we can download the whole thing and run it ourselves...

Hey, I made some modifications to the way DSE does stats–namely, you now have the option of using "fairmath" stat progression. The higher the score, the harder it is to increase and the easier it is to damage; this is the system used by Choice of Games to great effect and I think DSE could benefit from it.
Also, I added a "type" attribute to the __Stat class, to give more control over how stats are displayed, e.g. you can easily separate skills and personality traits instead of having everything dumped in order of initialisation.
How should I present the changes for consideration? I'm not very familiar with Github.

That sounds cool! I can see how some people would like for that to be an option. Could you zip it up and post a link?

I'm experimenting with this code for the first time and I seem to have added too many periods for the day planner screen to deal with - right now they're stretching off of the screen like this (there should be a Monday, Saturday, and Sunday in there, but you can't see them):
I'm aware that I'll probably want to mess around with the code in dse-styles to make it look nicer as well, but I was wondering if anyone knew how I would go about putting a line break in the list of periods or something so that I can have two rows of them. Right now my priority is just being able to see them all on screen so I can properly select things and test that all the other changes I've made are working.
Edit: Figured it out! I just needed to add "box_wrap True" to the hbox in dse-day_planner.rpy.

Sorry for taking so long to respond, life got in the way of devwork for a while!
Here's the modified dse-stats.rpy file as a gist!!

I'm not sure what exactly happened, but seems the latest Ren'Py update broke DSE: for some reason it's running
at start-up, before any stats have been generated.
EDIT: Aha, fixed it. Now the function checks that the given attribute exists in the first place before running. I'm going to figure out how to use github properly and maybe start implementing some of these changes I've been making?

Thanks for finding that! I'd be happy to help you make changes in git, or if you want to just post them here or send them to me, that would work, too.

`
It was to test the feature in the first place, so I didn't touch anything, just unziped the file and put it with my other renpy game x)
But I guess it's link to this problem solved but not add to the build yet ?

Anyway this feature looks amazing I am really curious to know more about it !

That should solve your problem!
