Hi. I'm fairly new to Ren'py and working on our group (Feathered Melody Productions)'s first project as programmer and writer. I've got a question regarding text display:
How does one set the text to be "typed out" by default? (i.e. Default text speed is to not display all the text at once.)
Thanks in advance for your help.
