Hello team,
Since I opened Ren'py this morning, everything is white in my script, white as the text/dialogues. Commands such as menu, screen, sprites etc used to appear in colour, which was very helpful.
I don't remember hitting any special key and everything worked perfectly fine yesterday.
Does anyone how how to turn the colours back on?
Thank you very much in advance for your help.

Can you please screenshot your text editor window? There are two possible problems here - either something is wrong with the theme selected, or the file is not being loaded in the Ren'Py mode.

This is what it looked like before with the colours:
and now that everything's white:
which makes it very difficult to code, and it hurts my eyes when I try.
Thank you very much in advance if you can help me!

Re: How to use Ren'py: everything has become white in the script
As far as I understand from googling, Atom disables syntax highlighting on files over 5MB or so...
I can see your script.rpy is rather long, so that might be the problem.
You could try just splitting it up into several files to see if that fixes it... maybe start by just making it into two files (Ren'Py will not mind multiple files, it reads them as one anyway) and maybe more if that fixes the issue with Atom.

- Speech Bubble dialogue system
- Multiple Notify with ATL and history
- (WIP) Radial Masking - needs updating to use Shader
- 7.4 - Smooth Tinting using ATL and matrixcolor
- Several other repositories there too
