[Solved] Setting position of side images

[htk318]

Hi all, silly problem here. On my last project, I got side images to work with no problems. My text box was in the center bottom of the screen with some space on the sides, and my side image was inside of the textbox.
The problem is, I tried to replicate that effect in my current project and it isn't working. What I have looks like this:

Code: Select all

$ c = Character('Charactername', image="c", show_two_window=True, color="#ffe2e3", ctc="ctc_animation", ctc_position="nestled")
$ c2 = Character('Charactername', image="c2", show_two_window=True, color="#ffe2e3", window_left_padding=160, ctc="ctc_animation", ctc_position="nestled")
image c2 normal = Null ()
image side c2 normal = "side_c_yell.png"

This is what I have in the script.rpy of my first game. But when I press play, the text in the textboxt has left padding of 160, but the side image stays in the bottom left corner of the screen. How do I fix this?

I did update to the current version of Ren'Py before I started this project, is that the issue?
Thanks for the help.

As far as I know, the position of side images is not done in the script, but in screens.rpy.

Go to the Say window and look for the following:

Code: Select all

    # If there's a side image, display it above the text.
    if side_image:
        add side_image
    else:
        add SideImage() xalign 0.0 yalign 1.0

Change that last line to a different xalign if you don't want it all the way at the left of the screen.

As expected, it was something really simple that I forgot to look over. OTL
Thank you!
