[SOLVED]Making Screen Disappear After Few Seconds

[Nero]

Does anyone know how can I make screen that will close itself after few seconds? For example I use show screen test and then after 3-4 seconds it should disappear?

Im aware that this can be done via function but then I need to use pause which will interfere with the program itself. I looked everywhere about pop-up screens but nothing really helped this specific case? Can this be done inside of the screen language?

There is already a renpy function for this actually. https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screens.html#timer

except in your case, you would hide the screen instead of jump to a label

no need to sort it out with python functions, a simple timer displayable should do the trick.

Code: Select all

screen timed_screen(timeout):
  timer timeout action Hide("timed_screen")
  text "After {} second(s), this screen will disappear...".format(timeout) align (0.5, 0.5)

label start:
  show screen timed_screen(2.0)

Yes that's exactly what I wanted, timer inside of a screen. Thanks!
