Hi there,

I've been using ren'py for a while but this is the first time i can't get WTF is going on.

So, this is what i have

Code: Select all

# Draw all clickable elements
label mapElements(mapType):
    python:
    	file_loc = "image"
    	comm_loc = "comm"
    	file_ext = ".png"
    	# for each drawable map
        for p in maps_cycle:
            # for each element in the map
            for i, e in enumerate(p):
            	 renpy.call("mapElement", e=e, file_loc=file_loc, comm_loc=comm_loc, file_ext=file_ext)
            	 narrator("Lol")

Code: Select all

label mapElement(e, file_loc, comm_loc, file_ext, use_comm=True):
	if renpy.loadable(file_loc + file_ext) == True:
        	$file_to_load = file_loc + file_ext
        	show expression "[file_to_load]" as file_loc:
            		pos(e[MapPlaceEntry.x], e[MapPlaceEntry.y])
    	return

What is happening is that, after entering in the label "mapElement" the for loops in mapElements get completely ignored, as if the control flow is not resumed from the renpy.call function.
Moreover the line narrator("lol") is never called.

I can't use call_in_new_context because on return will cancel the shown image (although the loop works with this one).

Any idea of what is happening??

Thanks,
K

I don't know why you are doing this in this way....but I'm looking at this line here:

Code: Select all

for i, e in enumerate(p):
            	 renpy.call("mapElement", e=e, file_loc=file_loc, comm_loc=comm_loc, file_ext=file_ext)
            	 narrator("Lol")

You are passing e, file_loc, comm_loc, and file_ext in the call. I see where e data comes from, but I don't see where the information file_loc, comm_loc, and file_ext data comes from. It looks like you are just passing in no information for that.

Which means this bit:

Code: Select all

if renpy.loadable(file_loc + file_ext) == True:

Should always end up being false because you didn't actually pass in any content for that information.

Thanks for the answer,
i forgot to include a placeholder for those variables.
The renpy.loadable returns always true.
