[SOLVED] Adjusting the speed of skip?

#1 Post by Kinmoku »

Hi all,

I'm wondering if it's possible to adjust the default speed of skipping? I want to implement something that's more like a fast-forward, rather than skip. I hope that makes sense! With my animated sprites, it lags a lot at the current speed of skip.

If slowing it down doesn't help either, I think I'll implement "skip to next choice", but I'd like to a slower skip/ fast-forward if possible.

Code: Select all

define config.skip_delay = 25
Though you should implement a preference to change them by a user rather than force fixed skip speed.
BTW, ren'py already has fast skip button by default.

Code: Select all

textbutton _("Skip") action Skip() alternate Skip(fast=True, confirm=True)

Thank you :) It's good to know how this all works.

I've put the code in and it works so much nicer now :D

What would be the best way to implement this as bar?
