Add dissolve to specific character positions.

[Kokoro]

Hi!
I'm having a bit of trouble, so I'm trying to have characters appear on the screen with four different locations. This is the code I use:

Code: Select all

init:
    $ position2 = Position(xpos=0.25, xanchor=0.5, ypos=0.5, yanchor=0.5)
    
init:
    $ position1 = Position(xpos=0.13, xanchor=0.5, ypos=0.5, yanchor=0.5)
    
init:
    $ position3 = Position(xpos=0.75, xanchor=0.5, ypos=0.5, yanchor=0.5)
    
init:
    $ position4 = Position(xpos=0.87, xanchor=0.5, ypos=0.5, yanchor=0.5)

I would write out script like this:

Code: Select all

show des at position1
with dissolve

This puts the characters where I want them, but it stops my dissolve command, making them just snap into place.

I'm doing my head in over something I think might be pretty simple! I'm really new to renpy so any help is needed! Thanks!!

ATL time...

Code: Select all

transform pos1d:
    pos (0.25, 0.5)
    align (0.5, 0.5)
    on show:
         dissolve

show des at pos1d

would then use dissolve when doing show... you could add on hide too etc

typed on the fly, may need tweaking

Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately the code doesn't seem to work. I get the error:

Exception: Not a displayable: <curry <class 'renpy.display.transition.Dissolve'> (0.5,) {}>

Not too sure what it means...

You might have to change the word 'dissolve' for something like 'with Dissolve(0.5)' similar to:

Late here now and working tomorrow. Might have a play after that though and find what works

Thanks for all your help! I managed to get it working n_n;
