I'm working on a VN that allows for some branching paths and story-arcs, and one of the suggestions/requests I keep getting is to allow players to customize the names of their save games so they are better able to keep track of which branch/arc a save game relates to. In other words, when saving a game, the player is prompted to enter some custom text that will be added to the save game file.
I've been doing a lot of Google searching for guides on how to do this, but most of the threads I've found are from 5 or more years ago and none of the code seems to work. One suggestion I found and tried was adding the following to the "screen file_slots(title):" area of the screens.rpy file, but it didn't seem to do anything whatsoever.
Code: Select all
fixed:
input:
value VariableInputValue('save_name')
I'm a real noob with Python and Ren'Py so many apologies if I have stupid follow-up questions.
