How do you call a function in a regular renpy label script?

[Jezzy]

Hi!

Its probably a very noob question but, I have a very simple function located in its own file that looks like this :

File ambiance sfx manager.rpy

Code: Select all

init python:
    def AmbianceManSFX():

        renpy.play("sfx/ambiance light city.ogg", "ambiance")

I want to call this function in the middle of a label of my choice. I know I could (theorically) call that function using this syntax :

Code: Select all

label start :
    $ AmbianceManSFX()

Its not working. I tried to put, for testing purpose, AmbianceManSFX() inside the screen.rpy file (in the screen say) and it works on every says.

Is there something I'm not getting right about calling a function in Renpy?

Unless your soundfile is silent, it should work.

Did you register your channel first?

Also, try renpy.music.play with if_changed parameter

And you can use all the screen-language functions (just add a pair of extra brackets at the end)

Code: Select all

$ Play("ambiance", "sfx/ambiance light city.ogg")()
