Where is the screen "_exception" kept?

[verysunshine]

I'm trying to find the screen "_exception". I don't want to change anything about the exception-handling code. I just want to copy the formatting for the screen itself. It should be somewhere in renpy/common, but I can't find the correct file.

I found def report_exception(e, editor=True) in renpy/error.py. It's not a screen, however.

Part of Renpy internals, not something you should mess with.
It isn't in the common folder.

The formatting won't be of any use as it isn't standard renpy language.

If the console gets screen language, the exception screen should too. Players might actually see the exeption screen, but they would never see the console.

What do you mean by "not standard Ren'py language"?

[Imperf3kt]

The exception screen is renpy internal, it's not written with screen language, it is what you see once renpy fails. It can't do that if it's run by renpy.

I'll try to find it soon(ish) but honestly don't think it's of any use to you.

That's a fair point. I thought the screen was shown if an exeption had occured but Ren'py could still run. It's weird that the other (dangerous) files can be opened. I guess if I can't find it I'll decompile Doki Doki Literature Club and try to find ("Words...", False) recreate it by hand.

renpy/common/_errorhandling.rpym
Also it is written with screen language

Code: Select all

# This file contains the code for in-game Ren'Py error handling. It's a
# module (as opposed to a .rpy file) because that allows us to ensure
# that it is fully loaded or run before any other Ren'Py code runs.

Looks like the right thing. I'll edit this when I've found the part I need.

Edit: Got it! Thank you so much. It does have some legacy code, but I'm fixing it.
