[Solved] Python to Ren'Py Translation

[AceQueenKimu24]

Good day! I just started studying Python and I have a little trouble translating this code into one that renpy accepts:

Code: Select all

 _history_list = [ "last dialogue" , "2nd to the last dialogue" , "3rd to the last dialogue" , "4th to the last dialogue" ]
hisnum = 0

for h in _history_list :
    hisnum += 1
    if hisnum <= 3:
        print(h)
    else :
        break

##the goal was to print/display three lines of text/dialogue and three only.

I wanted to make a little area where a snippet of the current gameplay is showed, like a mini history screen. If there are any ideas or opinions I'm open to them ^^ thank you for your time.

Code: Select all

screen test_history():
  frame:
    vbox:
      for entry in _history_list[-3:]:
        text str(entry.who)+": "+str(entry.what)

label start:
  show screen test_history
  ...

Works even if there is less that 3 history entries or it is empty.

Works like a charm! Many thanks drKlauz ^^
