Value in list not changing in loop

[jwideman]

First of all, I really wish renpy had better debugging tools. This has been kicking my ass for 3 days and I'm still struggling to figure out where my code is failing. Anyway...

Code: Select all

    class Events(renpy.store.object):
        def __init__(self):
            self.eventlist = []

        def get(self):
            return self.eventlist

        def add(self,x):
            for event in self.eventlist:
                if x.name == event.name:
                    return
            self.eventlist.append(x)

        def remove(self,x):
            for i,event in enumerate(self.eventlist):
                if x.name == event.name:
                    self.eventlist[i].disabled = True

        def readd(self,x):
            for i,event in enumerate(self.eventlist):
                if x.name == event.name:
                    self.eventlist[i].disabled = False

        def loop(self):
            disable = False
            for i,event in enumerate(self.eventlist):
                if not event.disabled:
                    event_conditions = 0    #the total number of conditions for the event
                    event_met = 0    #the number of conditions met
                    if event.location:
                        event_conditions += 1
                        if event.location == locstring:
                            event_met += 1
                    if event.day:
                        event_conditions += 1
                        if event.day == day:
                            event_met += 1
                    if event.time:
                        event_conditions += 1
                        if event.time == time_of_day:
                            event_met += 1
                    if event_met and event_met == event_conditions:
                        if event.auto:
                            renpy.call(event.name)
                        else:
                            itemlist.add(event.item)
                        self.eventlist[i].disabled = True

For some reason unknown to me, that last line does nothing.

If you hit the renpy.call(event.name) line, then control will not be returned to your function. The requested label will begin and the remainder of your code ignored.

This is because internally renpy.call triggers an exception that will be caught and interpreted by the main event loop further up-stack than your code is executing.
This will not only prevent your final line executing, but also any subsequent trips around your for loop.

Even though my label has a return line? Okay, so renpy.call() is poorly named. Alrighty then. Thanks.
