[Solved]How to solve "The build.directory_name variable may not include the space, colon...(blabla)"?

[xixikudo]

I tried to build distribution of the tutorial project and just got a "The build.directory_name variable may not include the space, colon, or semicolon characters." error message. What should I check?
Where is this build.directory_name anyway?

Try the options.rpy file.

Are you using Atom as your text editor? If so, make sure to add your game folder into your project, then you can use Find in Project or Search in Directory for specific strings (in this case build.directory_name). Be mindful that Find in Project ignores files that you've excluded in the project.

Changing...

Code: Select all

define config.version = renpy.version_string

in the options.rpy, to something like:

Code: Select all

define config.version = "1.0"

...should fix it!

Looks like Tutorial is trying to use Ren'py version as the game version, but is has some forbidden characters.

I tried this but still doesn't work with me.

EDIT: you have to also edit your scripts.rpy and make sure the build name has no space, semicolon, like it said. then make sure the version only has number & dot. so you have to make sure your options.rpy names are good and the ones in your scripts.rpy

----------------------
I have the same problem.

options.rpy has

Code: Select all

define config.version = "1.0"

but i still get that error
