[Solved] How do you remove the words "Skip Mode"?

#1 Post by Lockvia » Wed Mar 26, 2014 9:30 pm

I think by default the words "Skip Mode" appears every time it is on. So I've been trying to figure out how to remove the words "Skip Mode" on the top left hand corner. And I have no idea how. I've also attached a screenshot. And help would be awesome!

Well you can get rid of the words by pressing Skip again to turn off Skip Mode. However the engine needs a notification for Skip Mode, otherwise it can be confusing for users.

I've set the quick menu to have arrows around the word "Skip" whenever it's activated, so that it wouldn't be confusing for the players. So I'm hoping there's a way to make the words "Skip Mode" on the top left hand corner to be invisible.

This is controlled by the config.skip_indicator variable. If you set:

Code: Select all

init python:
    config.skip_indicator = None
the skip indicator will not be shown.
