[Solved] Conditional side image

Hey. I have a question regarding side images which I hope I could get some help with.
I am trying to make a side image for my main character that is placed at a different x,y pos than the regular images for the other characters.
I know it has something to do in here:
Code: Select all
if not renpy.variant("small"):
add SideImage() xalign 0.25 yalign 0.80
But I am not quite sure how to go about doing this. I tried:
Code: Select all
if not renpy.variant("small"):
if Character() == main_character:
add SideImage() xalign 0.65 yalign 0.80
else:
add SideImage() xalign 0.25 yalign 0.80
But it always ends up using the else statement regardless. Any clues?
This is my main character definition:
Code: Select all
define mc = Character("[main_character]",
color = "#FFBFFF",
image = "mc")
image side mc talk = "side_images/side_mc_talk.png"

you probably want to address the "who" but I'm not sure. I haven't messed with side images in a couple of years. But right now you're referring to the entire character function
*update* here I found this
viewtopic.php?t=25136 
This is probably the most straight forward solution:
Code: Select all
define e = Character('Eileen', color="#c8ffc8", image="eileen", show_side_xalign=1.0)

Hi. Thanks for replying. Unfortunately that code seems outdated and doesn't seem to be working. :/

in init:
Code: Select all
default main_character = 'J.M.'
define mc = Character('main_character', dynamic=True,
image='mc',
color='#ffbfff',
)
image side mc = 'some_picture.jpg'
in screen say():
Code: Select all
if not renpy.variant("small"):
if who==main_character:
add SideImage() xalign .65 yalign .8
else:
add SideImage() xalign .25 yalign .8

This works great! Thank you very much, Irina!
