Menu Choices

Okay, I want to do two things with menu choices...
1. To move the menu choices up, so they're not running over my text box.
2. To make certain choices available if a path/gift is unlocked.
Eg: I have asked player to decide whether they wish to join school council or not. If they agree, I'd like to open a new option in the morning for them to 'visit the office', but not skip the time period doing so.

To make a conditional menu choice, just use if. Let's say that earlier in the game players could choose to learn Spanish, which set a variable $ Spanish = True (and if they chose not to it's set to $ Spanish = False). Then your menu could read:
Code: Select all
"What shall I do today?"
menu:
"Go shopping":
...
"Stay at home":
...
"Go to Spain" if Spanish:
...
Then the last option will only show up in the menu is Spanish is True.

1. In screens.rpy
Code: Select all
screen choice:
window:
style "menu_window"
xalign 0.5
yalign 0.5 #<=== set it to 0.3 or so to move choice menu up (rest of the code unchanged)

It works, but perhaps there's a way it wont cut into the text box...?

Another question:
How would I write it if, as above it was
but with two ?'s needed to be on.

You can use boolean operations -
https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.htmlCode: Select all
menu:
"Yadda" if var1 == True and var2 >= 5:
As for positioning choice menu, it's all up to you how to "design" it - if you really want to show 10 or more choices you could make a two-column choice menu or put it inside a viewport to let player scroll through it.

Bump!
Question: If I have an 'if' command I want to run first, how do I make it run without turning the other commands off?

It works like:
- do one of possible stuffs
Code: Select all
if var == value:
do stuff
else:
do other stuff
or
Code: Select all
if var == value:
do stuff
elif var == value_2:
do stuff_2
else:
do other stuff
- or do each of stuffs if appropriate condition is true
Code: Select all
if var_1 == value_1:
do stuff_1
if var_2 == value_2:
do stuff_2
if var_3 == value_3:
do stuff_3
