How to change text in the History screen like in DDLC?

#1 Post by EternalVoid »

I was wondering how this could be done. I'm on the middle of making a short game with Ren'Py and I wanted to break the fourth wall a bit, y'know?

If someone knows, thank you!

You can edit history list entries. For example:

Code: Select all

"Hi! I couldn't wait to see you again!"
$ _history_list[-1].what = "I hate you. Wish you were dead."
"If you check history now, you will notice that the last entry changed"

Thank you! It works like a charm.
