How can I add something with the imput?

#1 Post by Nanahs »

When I let the playrt type like this:

Code: Select all

    $ answer1 = renpy.input("How are you?")
I wanted the character's (that is also a default/imput) "[name]" to appear in front of the anwers.

I mean, if the person answers "I'm fine, thanks."

I wanted [answer1] to appear as (let's just say the person chose Jhon as their name):

"Jhon: I'm fine, thanks."

Is there a way I can add the "[name]:" directly here?

Code: Select all

    $ answer1 = renpy.input("How are you?")
Thanks.

Code: Select all

define char_name = Character("[name]")
where char_name is the name you put in front of the text

Code: Select all

 
char_name  "I am fine"
Is that what you were looking for?
