Hiya again,

I have a feeling I'll be posting a lot in here because I'm fairly new to the whole coding thing, but I've been trying my best to make things work. I've been trying to solve this for several hours but had no luck whatsoever! All I'm trying to do is make a scene for when you go buy things. However, when I first did it on my own without what I added now, if the player had $0 they could still buy an object even if i put that the money had to be >= 10, for instance.

This would just make the money go down in the negatives. So I tried using the renpy cookbook and other things for help. And this happened. I'm not sure how to fix it. I apologize for the mess I'm going to put below since I was trying to figure out a way to make things work.

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

The error indicates the object "inventory" has not been defined, however in the example you posted it is defined in the shop label? Make sure you are creating that object in the code that's throwing the error.

Also, you have some variables in an init block:

Code: Select all

init:
    $ TIME = 0
    $ items = []
    $ Day = 1
    $ money = 10

money and items are created by the Inventory class and changed by that class's functions. So inventory.money is the variable that's being decreased, and inventory.items is where the item list is being stored when you use inventory.buy()

Thanks for the advice! I tried messing around with it a bit more so everything is in that one label and so that money and items aren't in that init block. Below is what I have in that label now.

Code: Select all

init python:
    class item:
        def __init__(self, name, cost):
            self.name = name

    class Inventory:
        def __init__(self, money=10):
            self.money = money
            self.items = [] 
    
        def buy(self, item):
            if self.money >= item.cost:
                self.money -= item.cost
                self.items.append(item)

I should have explained better. The indentation in your original code is not consistent, but that code technically works. I had no trouble running it. 'NameError: name 'inventory' is not defined' means when Ren'Py tried to run the inventory.buy function, it could not find an object called 'inventory'. However, in the original code you posted you have indeed created that object:

Code: Select all

label buy:
    $ inventory = Inventory()

I am not able to replicate your error, which is why I asked if this object exists in the script that is currently throwing the error.

Regardless, putting the inventory object in the buy label means it will be overwritten each time the player buys something. You want to create the inventory object after the start label.

Regarding init blocks, keep in mind these blocks run whenever the game is initialized. You will only want to store data that does not change. I assume you do not want to reset the Day variable. If not, you would want to define it after the start label as well.

Ah it worked!! Thank you so much for the help and for explaining because I didn't know much about the init block nor did I realize the indentation wasn't constant. I was just trying out different things I saw from different tutorials, but now I understand this all lot better. Thanks again!

As a bit of background advice, Python parses its code through indentation - 4 space character (a tab, effectively) define a block of text as introduced by a colon, in comparison to other languages which ignore whitespace and defines blocks through, for example, curly braces. So, it's extremely important to code integrity that the indentation is kept consistent and correct.

Also, the inventory system is object-oriented. The inventory=Inventory() statement is instantiating an Inventory object and assigning it to the reference 'inventory' - you only do this once to initialise a given inventory. The beauty of this is that you can, for instance, create more than one Inventory object, say for different player characters.

Ah okay, I'll make note of it so I don't do it again and also I didn't know that I could create more than one inventory. As of yet I don't need to have more than one with the project I'm working on, but I'm pretty sure I will in the future. Thanks for the advice!
