"Click to continue" icon for centered dialogue?

[Amie]

Hi everyone! So I've just implemented a CTC icon which appears after character and narrator dialogue, but the CTC icon won't appear if the dialogue is 'centered' on the screen, is there a way to change this?

You can define your own custom centered screen.

For this you create a new Character, set the dialogue Window to have no background and change it's xalign and yaling to 0.5, effectively placing it in the center. It would end up like this:

Code: Select all

define centered = Character(ctc="ctc_icon.png", window_background=None, window_xalign=0.5, window_yalign=0.5)

label start:
         centered "Centered text with Click to Continue."

Note that this will overwrite the default centered character, if you don't want that simply give your new character a different name, like 'centered_ctc'. Also notice I had the ctc to be a single image for the sake of simplicity, but it can (and should, for better visual effect) be an animated screen.

Actually, I have to thank you, I never would have thought of adding a ctc to centered until I saw your question and decided to try it myself, I'm glad it worked!
