Adding Dialogue History to old project?

[Blake337]

Hi all,

I'm currently adding the finishing touches to a game I started in 2015. I wanted to add a Text History function and disable the rollback (I don't like the player being able to go back in time, so to say.)

At first I found a cookbook recipe that I pasted into the project but as we all know that breaks the NVL parts. Then I noticed the newest Renpy version already comes with a really cool history function. How would I go around adding that to my old project? I'd rather not replace the whole "screens.rpy" file.

On a side note, I also noticed my project has no "gui.rpy" file at all. I don't remember having deleted it, is it a file that was added after my project was created, or was it always an optional file?

I tried to only copy paste the history window into my screens.rpy file I get all kinds of errors, since the files are probably wildly different.

Any help on this is appreciated.

Thanks for replying.

Unfortunately I have already tried that, and it works, but it breaks NVL. With that file in the project, NVL messages appear one at a time instead of until it reaches NVL clear. I don't know whether there's a workaround for that.

Not sure what you mean with the second part (rollback close)

In the visual novel "myth" is written in old renpу. Copy the history code from there
