different names for rpa files and about labels(solved)

[JQuartz]

So here's the imagined scenario:
1. I want to make a very short Renpy game (probably 2 -3 screens, low quality art and music, everything added together should be less than 0.5 mb)
2. A friend is also making a very short Renpy game ( same as me) with a related topic
3. I want to bundle up both games to reduce game size (since all the other stuff takes up more space than the game itself)
4. A few more friends also expressed interest in bundling up their very short games
5. I can add their script to my game folder without any problem.(since we aren't using the same labels, we prefixed it with our name)
6. There will only be one start label which would be a menu with buttons jumping to the various games
7.But rpa files on the other hand can't be combined since rpa files can't be renamed without causing error.
8. For a reason, we must use rpa files

Anyone have any ideas how to solve this?

Thanks.



Question 2:

Is there anyway to check whether a specific label exists? something like:

Code: Select all

if specific label exists:
    jump specific_label

Because I might want to add on more parts to the game (reason: look at above) so I need to end my games with a jump to a new label (which currently doesn't exist yet)

Thanks again

For the RPA, just use different names ô_o... I usually have a music.rpa and a graphics.rpa of sorts.

To make it use more .rpa files, write code like:

Code: Select all

init:
    $ config.archives.append('music')
    $ config.archives.append('graphics')

That will make it use music.rpa and graphics.rpa. (Anyone remember when Ren'Py also used .rpi files?)

To check it a label exists, use the renpy.has_label function.

Thanks Monele! Thanks Pytom!
Now I'll just need to code the stuff...
