Stylizing text for narrator & Ren'Py Cheatsheet?

[rabcor]

I need my narrator(specifically the narrator, no one else) text to use 0 cps and a dissolve effect (at least most of the time) while all the charracters in the game will use something like 100cps with no additional effects (unless otherwise specified)

I was also wondering how i would specify a font that one character should use everytime he/she speaks.

Finally although slightly off topic, i'm wondering if theres a cheatsheet of some sort lying around somewhere so that i can have some sort of list (with brief or no descriptions) of the commands that ren'py can use, for example i have no idea what "renpy.code_code ()" means and no idea where it came from. And also there seems to be different commands for options.rpy and screens.rpy than what i've got under things like labels in my own scripts. Is there any more advanced tutorial than the official one that goes into more details than the official tutorial? Can the scripts in the official tutorial be used as a substitute for a cheatsheet (as in, does the tutorial have every single command that ren'py offers written somewhere in the files?) what i mean by cheatsheet to clarify is something like this (CryEngine cheatsheet) a less extreme example would be this

Narrator is a character like any other, so you can do

Code: Select all

define narrator = Character (None, what_slow_cps=0, what_font="fontfile_name.ttf")

http://www.renpy.org/wiki/renpy/doc/ref ... /Character
http://www.renpy.org/wiki/renpy/doc/ref ... Properties

Most of commonly used functions and variables can be found in documentation. You could find all the others in .rpy and .py files in renpy folder and subfolders.

Not everything is documented in http://www.renpy.org/doc/html/ but PyTom is constantly working on it (see the commits in the github repository of renpy, there is constant work). As something similar to a cheatsheet, I'm using lots of times the general index in the doc: http://www.renpy.org/doc/html/genindex.html (link in top right of every documentation page). If something is not there, the old wiki is the last resource (befor asking directly here in the forums).

thanks a lot guys

Still don't know how to add a dissolve effect to the narrators text though.
