How to set multiple variables with text button?

[Luxliev]

Can you make textbutton set multiple variables? Example in python:

Code: Select all

def func(a, b):
    a += 3
    b += 4
    return a, b

z = 1
x = 2
z, x = func(z, x)

I can't use action SetVariable(), SetVariable() because I use function first and then when I try to SetVariables after that I have this annoying issue that button always lags one click behind (and it flashes white)

Code: Select all

textbutton "EQUIP":
        action Function(ui_inv_equip, swap_item, compared_item), SetVariable('swap_item', None), SetVariable('compared_item_item', None),

Can you not recode ui_inv_equip to set the variables itself and just do the one function action?
Alternatively, maybe a utility function that calls ui_inv_equip then sets both variables...

I found that using Jump gives you opportunity to do pretty much whatever you want but won't this create any problems? Example:

Code: Select all

imagebutton auto equipment.imgd.inventory:
    action SetVariable('swap_item', equipment), Jump('background')

label background:
    $ citem, ditem = set_ci(citem, ditem)
    $ renpy.pause()
    jump background
