Point System with Ongoing Notification

#1 Post by ariasune »

Hi there! I'm pretty new to ren'py, so I apologize if there's an intuitive solution to this.

I'm implementing a points system, and would like a way to immediately bring up a notification when certain levels of points are met, regardless of where and what a player is doing. Any ideas on how best to implement this?

Well, Ren'Py has a function called renpy.notify that you can use to show a small notification box on a corner of the screen with any message you want. Depending on how you implement your point system you can call this function after you make a change to your points. If you want to modify how this screen looks like or how it appears, it can be found in screens.rpy file.here is more documentation on it.
The most important step is always the next one.
