[SOLVED] Issue with imagebutton and jump as a child(?)

[mieauk]

Hello!

I'm trying to learn how to implement a navigation system in my game, by adding arrow buttons that lead you to other rooms (labels). However, I'm very new to this and it doesn't seem to work out no matter what I do.

Those below are two examples of screens with the buttons:

Code: Select all

screen sc_street:
    modal True
    imagebutton auto "hud/button_%s.png" xalign 0.2 yalign 0.5 focus_mask True jump("bg2")
    imagebutton auto "hud/button_%s.png" xalign 0.5 yalign 0.5 focus_mask True jump("vending_machine")
    imagebutton auto "hud/button_%s.png" xalign 0.8 yalign 0.5 focus_mask True jump("bg2")

screen sc_bg2:
    modal True
    imagebutton auto "hud/button_%s.png" xalign 0.5 yalign 0.5 focus_mask True jump("street")

But that leads to an error that says "u'jump' is not a keyword argument or valid child for the imagebutton statement".

Could anyone tell me what I can do to fix it? What did I do wrong and what action should I use, if not jump? If possible, please keep the explanation as simple as possible as I am a total beginner.

Thanks in advance! :>

You've got this error 'cause you didn't specified that 'Jump' is an action for the button - should be

Code: Select all

imagebutton auto "hud/button_%s.png" xalign 0.5 yalign 0.5 focus_mask True action Jump("street")

Also, check the list of actions ('Jump' action has capital 'J') - https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screen_actions.html

I had "action" there in my code but for some reason, my dumb*ss didn't transcript it here.

This fixed it! I'm new to programming and thought that having it all lower case was aesthetically pleasing. Didn't even imagine anything there was case sensitive.
Thank you so so much!
