Hey, gang.
Is there something I can put in the character definition block to specify its gender?
Reason being... I code stuff out way before I have graphics to fill in the displayables, and it would be really handy if I saw the 'boy' sprite for male characters. Heck, it would be handy if I could just assign a default dummy sprite to each character, then it would be no problemo to code before the graphics are made.
... work flow kinda thing, you know.
Thanks.

There once was a language called Ren'Py
that made all the wannabes cry... with joy.
It gave them the power,
they spent every hour,
to finish a game, or die.

Just do:
etc. Ren'Py should try to guess the gender from the name, if it's not available.
Code: Select all
image eileen = Placeholder("girl")
image tom = Placeholder("boy")
