Live Composite - user chosen character outfit problem

[Aviala]

Hey all!

First of all, sorry for asking so many questions here OTL
I just ran into a problem that doesn't show an error message and I can't understand why it doesn't work.
So, in my game, the player can choose the main character's outfit. I succesfully made a live composite code that doesn't crash and shows the first outfit successfully. However, when I try to change the outfit to the pajama outfit by changing the currentclothes variable to 3, it still shows the same outfit.

Code: Select all

image prince: 
    LiveComposite((464,1080),
    (0,0), ConditionSwitch(
    "prince_body == 'body1'", "images/sprites2/body1.png",
    "prince_body == 'body2'", "images/sprites2/body2.png"
    ),
    (0,0), ConditionSwitch(
    "prince_expression == 'calm'", "images/sprites2/calm.png",
    "prince_expression == 'happy'", "images/sprites2/happy.png",
    "prince_expression == 'angry'", "images/sprites2/angry.png",
    "prince_expression == 'sad'", "images/sprites2/sad.png",

    ),
    (0,0), ConditionSwitch(
    "prince_clothes == 'clothesbody1'", "images/sprites2/clothes%d.png" %currentclothes, #name all clothes that are in pose 1 clothes1, clothes2 etc
    "prince_clothes == 'clothesbody2'", "images/sprites2/clothes2b%d.png" %currentclothes, #name all clothes that are in pose 2 clothes2b1 etc
    "prince_clothes == 'clothesbody3'", "images/sprites2/clothes3b%d.png" %currentclothes,
    "prince_clothes == 'clothesbody4'", "images/sprites2/clothes4b%d.png" %currentclothes,
    ),
        
    (0,0), ConditionSwitch(
    "prince_extras == 'falcon'", "images/sprites2/falcon.png",
    "prince_extras == 'flower'", "images/sprites2/flower.png",
    ),
    )

label princeclothes:

    python:
        currentclothes = 1
        prince_expression = "calm"
        prince_body = "body1"
        prince_clothes = "clothesbody1"
        prince_extras = "falcon"
    
    
    show prince
    p "I'm wearing my normal clothes."

    python:
        currentclothes = 3
        prince_expression = "calm"
        prince_body = "body1"
        prince_clothes = "clothesbody1"
        prince_extras = "falcon"
        
    p "I'm wearing my pajamas!!" #except that he's not!

What am I doing wrong? Why doesn't the outfit change like it's supposed to? I'm puzzled, because the code manages to show the correct outfit the first time when I set currentclothes to 1, but for some reasonthere's no change when I set it to 3. Maybe it's because the live composite code thinks I'm not changing anything because I'm setting prince_clothes to clothesbody1 twice? I'm just guessing here, help would be appreciated!

Interpolating Data

Code: Select all

    (0,0), ConditionSwitch(
    "prince_clothes == 'clothesbody1'", "images/sprites2/clothes[currentclothes].png", #name all clothes that are in pose 1 clothes1, clothes2 etc
    "prince_clothes == 'clothesbody2'", "images/sprites2/clothes2b[currentclothes].png", #name all clothes that are in pose 2 clothes2b1 etc
    "prince_clothes == 'clothesbody3'", "images/sprites2/clothes3b[currentclothes].png",
    "prince_clothes == 'clothesbody4'", "images/sprites2/clothes4b[currentclothes].png",
    ),

Awesome, thanks! It works!
I already tried this method earlier but changed to the one I was using because it didn't work, but I think the problem was somewhere else, like a missing comma that I fixed along the way... But I still kept thinking the method you suggested wouldn't work.

Anyway, it's fixed now and all is well!
