[SOLVED] Hiding HUD during dialogue segments

[zombiehead]

Is there any way to hide the hud when someone is speaking? I know i could hide it manually but i'm hoping theres another way so I don't have to do it everytime i start writing dialogue. It'd be perfect if there was a way of knowing when dialogue is being shown on screen and combining that with the showif on the HUD screen?

I just tried setting a variable when the say screen is shown and turning it off when it's hidden, which seems to work for hiding it but it doesnt show again once the dialogue is over.

Thanks.

You could use the renpy.get_screen() function to check if the dialogue screen is being shown:

Code: Select all

showif not renpy.get_screen("say"):
    text "show HUD"
