How to hide namebox from narrator? [solved]

[littanana]

I have my narrator defined as a "character". How do I make the narrator have no namebox?

[Donmai]

Just don't give him a name?

Code: Select all

define n = Character(' ')

[littanana]

It doesn't have a name, but it still creates the empty namebox.

Was there a special reason you made the narrator a character? If you just write dialogue without a name, it's assumed to be the default narrator, and you won't get a namebox.

is it namebox or text/dialogue box?

perhaps you could post a snapshot of your game

Declare your character with the name None

Code: Select all

my_narrator = Character(name=None)

(It should be None, not 'None')

Other possibility is to inherit data from default narrator character:

Code: Select all

my_narrator = Character(kind=narrator)

Notice that you can replace default narrator (the one you get if you write a string without specifying character) by redefining narrator variable.

So I could set a custom colored outline on the text by narrator..

Thank you I got it to work by using the name=None!
