Overriding hyperlink handlers? [Solved]

[the wiseman]

I'd like to override the jump_handler with my own function, the goal being to give mods a place to hook into my event system and thus trigger their mods to fire without modifying my core game code. I might also want to use this for some debugging purposes.

I've been testing ways to override the handler, but so far it doesn't seem to be working the way I would expect:

Code: Select all

init -1499 python hide:
    def modified_jump_handler(value):
        print(value)
        renpy.jump(value)

    config.hyperlink_handlers["jump"] = modified_jump_handler

but this doesn't seem to actually be working (although if I check config.hyperlink_handlers in the console, it does have the right handler listed for jump)

Is there a way to do what I'm attempting?

What is the issue? Seems to work fine.

It doesn't seem to be printing anything for me. I thought value might be empty so I replaced it with just a print("foo") and still get nothing in the console, though jumps are still occurring.

Prints fine for me. In any case, if it's jumping but not printing, then it's probably a console issue, not an issue with the handler itself.

I think I was misunderstanding what those handlers were for, config.label_callback seems to be what I want. Thanks!
