How do you disable(enable) rollback? I don't mean block_rollback() but completely disable that feature (say, during a combat done in renpy, rollback is a terrible option)

https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/save_loa ... g-rollback

It is possible to disable rollback in part or in full. If rollback is not wanted at all, it can simply be turned off through the config.rollback_enabled option.

yeah exactly that is not useful, since you would have to call this at every interaction though or disable it for whole game

You can do it easily just place this line at the start of your game. And if you want it enabled back just set it to True.

so renpy actually dynamically checks config.rollback_enabled? cool to know

so renpy actually dynamically checks config.rollback_enabled?

No, I don't think so. rollblock_enable probably acts as a flag that is checked at program startup, rather than dynamically. But that's just an assumption.

I don't recommend changing config variables while the game is running, since they're not updated when a game is loaded.

Instead, consider controlling the _rollback variable.

thanks pytom, that was it, Can it be done from python code?

Yes, it's just a normal python variable. You can do things like setting it from python code. If you want to control it from inside a function, be sure to set the function global.

what if I want to access it from outside python code from some imported module?

You can do:

import renpy.store

and then

renpy.store._rollback = ...

thanks a lot!
