[SOLVED] "Expected word not found" error when changing font

[Keryee]

Struggling to figure out Ren'py, here-- I've been trying to change the default font, and it's been giving me this error:

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but errors were detected in your script. Please correct the
errors listed below, and try again.


File "game/script.rpy", line 5: expected 'word' not found.
    style . default.font = "Mordred.ttf"
          ^

File "game/script.rpy", line 6: expected 'word' not found.
    style . default.size = 20
          ^

Ren'Py Version: Ren'Py 6.99.6.739

My code looks like this:

Code: Select all

init:
    style.default.font = "Mordred.ttf"
    style.default.size = 20

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong! Ahahaha...

the statements you're trying to use are python statements, so you either have to wrap them in a python block:

Code: Select all

init:
    python:
        style.default.font = "Mordred.ttf"
        style.default.size = 20

or start the lines with $:

Code: Select all

init:
    $ style.default.font = "Mordred.ttf"
    $ style.default.size = 20

Or what's preferred:

Code: Select all

style default:
    font "Mordred.ttf"
    size 20

Or what's preferred:

Code: Select all

style default:
    font "Mordred.ttf"
    size 20

Oh, wow! Thank you both so much, that's really helpful.
