When defining a dynamic character instance for the player, I used the following code:
define pl = DynamicCharacter('plyr', color="#ffcc3e", ctc="right_thingy", ctc_position="fixed", who_xalign=0.5)
When setting the name, I use this:
$ plyr = renpy.input("What is your name?", length=14)
$ plyr = plyr.strip()
if plyr == "":
$ plyr = "Boaty McBoatface"
$ renpy.block_rollback()
p '"I\'m called %(plyr)s!"'
But, when the player is speaking, their name doesn't center on the who box properly. I can rearrange each of the character names with who_xpos so that they fit evenly inside the who box, but I can't automate it with who_xalign, which is particularly annoying. Any help would be much appreciated!

Re: Center A Dynamic Player's Name
Shoot, looks like I was able to fix it on my own. To be fair, I'd been working on it for a while!
Anyway, here's my fix:
In screens.rpy, I modified the x and y components of the who id for both window variants under the Say screen:
if who:
text who id "who" xpos 120 ypos 17 xalign 0.5
...and, of course...
text who:
id "who" xpos 120 ypos 17 xalign 0.5
Looks like that fixed it! Oh, and I removed the who_xalign=0.5 from the dynamic charatcer definition.
