cant combine dress-up and rename character

[Arioh]

Hello, im struck with one problem - cant make dress-up system from this tutorial: viewtopic.php?f=51&t=14559 , and naming system from this viewtopic.php?f=51&t=41069 to work with same character.
for example: code from dress-up tutorial with commands for renaming injected in it:

Code: Select all

init:
    image char = DynamicDisplayable(draw_char) # using DynamicDisplayable ensures that any changes are visible immedietly
    $ character = Character('Koma', color="#c8ffc8", window_left_padding=180, show_side_image=DynamicDisplayable(draw_char_side))
    $ character = "character"

label start:
   show screen dressup_button
   $ dressup_button_show = True
label cont:
    show char
    character "La, la, la!"
    $ character = renpy.input("What's your name?")
    jump cont
    

problem is - when i setting line to define main character's name in an init block, sideimage in dialoge for that character stops working... but they work for any character with predefined, non customizable name...
is there way to make them to work together?

try making the name a variable like:

Code: Select all

$ character = Character('[character]', color="#c8ffc8", window_left_padding=180, show_side_image=DynamicDisplayable(draw_char_side))
