Rewinding

[Triority]

I have noticed with the current verion of RenPy, that when rewinding back (using the mouse wheel, character sprites have a nasty habit of incorrectly positioning themselves - usually in the center of the screen), although when going forward, positions are okay.

A minimal code example showing the behavior would go a long way to figure out if it's a Renpy bug or (more likely) something in your code.

Code: Select all

    scene bg castle with fade
    show youngGrendel curious at Position(xpos=0.999,xanchor=0.0,ypos=GRENDEL_YPOS,yanchor=0.5)
    show cleaner normal at Position(xpos=0.999,xanchor=0.0,ypos=GRENDEL_YPOS,yanchor=0.5)
    $ renpy.pause(0.25,hard=True)
    
    show youngGrendel happy
    youngGrendel "\"Perhaps you could combine the two positions ? Make dry information fun, for once !\""
    

This is the code I have - forward it's okay (as in the second picture), but rewind and then forward, for the first picture to happen. The odd thing is it didn't used to do this.

I've figured out why now. Forward winding ignored the renpy.pause statement, and as there was an expression assignment before the character was actually positioned, it was being centred to the screen. So, get rid of the expression and it's sorted.
