I recently learned Renpy and started messing around with inventory systems using these posts as reference. ( I tried copying the first link as a test)

I can't seem to figure out why I keep getting this error, I feel like I forgot something very simple. If you don't mind explaining what I did wrong and how to fix it.
I was trying to create an inventory that shows an image button when clicked shows the description of the item for the player.
Any other tips with an inventory involving imagebuttons will also help.

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
  File "game/script.rpy", line 45, in script
    call screen inventory
  File "renpy/common/000statements.rpy", line 531, in execute_call_screen
    store._return = renpy.call_screen(name, *args, **kwargs)

In this line:

Code: Select all

$ inventory_list.append("burger")

You're appending the string "burger" to the inventory, which is the unicode object the error is talking about.
You need to append the burger object itself:

Code: Select all

$ inventory_list.append(burger)
