Ren'Py always throws error for custom text tag

[kostek00]

I tired to make my own self closing text tags but Ren'py was throwing me error that they don't exist. Then I tried non-self closing text tag but result was the same. I tried for the last time and copied example from documentation and it's also error. I then reinstalled Ren'Py and tried on fresh project but it also resulted in the same error. Any ideas what is going on?

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While processing text tag {bang} in u'This is {bang}!'.:
  File "game/script.rpy", line 8, in script
    "This is {bang}!"
Exception: Unknown text tag u'bang'

It will be easier to help you if you’d post the code you’re using for the tag function and how you’re registering it.

[kostek00]

It's exact copy from documentation that also don't work:

Code: Select all

init python:
    def bang_tag(tag, argument):
        return [ ( renpy.TEXT_TAG, "size=40"), (renpy.TEXT_TEXT, "!"), (renpy.TEXT_TAG, "/size") ]

    config.self_closing_custom_text_tags["bang"] = bang_tag

label start:
    "This is awesome{bang}"

And I'm using newest version 7.3.

I just landed a fix for this. There was a problem that it wouldn't work unless you had a non-self closing tag defined as well.

Thanks for update. I'll be waiting for release.

Seems like a lot of fixes went in. Hope we get a release soon.
