[Solved] How to change the keymap for save and load screen?

[Lockvia]

Just wondering but is it possible to have a keymap for the save and load screen? I tried the code below, in options but it didn't work. Is the 'save' and 'load' parts in the code incorrect?

Code: Select all

config.keymap['save'] = ['s']
config.keymap['load'] = ['l']

If you need to show those screens by pressing keys, you can make a screen and set "ShowMenu" actions for the keys.

This is what I have at the moment. Is there suppose to be some kind of other code I'm suppose to add in order for this code to work? It's not working at the moment.

Code: Select all

screen keymap_screen():
        key "s" action ShowMenu('save')
        key "l" action ShowMenu('load')

Okay I finally got it working.

Firstly I indent the first part too much, so it should be something like this:

Code: Select all

screen keymap_screen:
    key "s" action ShowMenu('save')
    key "l" action ShowMenu('load')

And I looked around and I'm suppose to add this code just after start, so it should look like this in the end.

Code: Select all

label start:
    show screen keymap_screen

I noticed that when you use this method and press 's' again the screen doesn't go back to the game. Is there a way to make keymap work in a way that when you press it for the second time it would return to the normal game play?

You need to set the "Return" actions for that keys and add it to the load and save screens (in screens.rpy), like

Code: Select all

screen save:
    tag menu
    key "s" action Return()
    use navigation
    use file_picker

screen load:
    tag menu
    key "l" action Return()
    use navigation
    use file_picker

Thank you so much! It worked!
