HELP coding MAP - how to unlock map fast travel once location has been reached

[thery]

Hello!

I am fairly new to ren'py coding (and coding in general) and I have been following Thundorn @ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3XOVU ... JNh9OMD8g and his tutorials. I've made a game following his most recent tutorial series and I would like to make some tweaks to the game engine.

So far the game engine allows for travelling to different locations using the map - which is great. But, I want all of the locations to be locked in the map_screen until the player has moved to that location manually. I think that might be the easiest way to describe what I want to happen in the game.

Any and all tips - whether tutorials or code - are most welcome!

Also, if someone knows about a full ren'py game-making-tutorial-series I would be happy to get the link.

Thank you very much!

you can try to store the conditions in a dict.

Code: Select all

default locations = dict(loc1=False, loc2=False, loc3=False)

then in your label where you want to unlock these, you just do...

Code: Select all

label loc1:
  $ locations["loc1"] = True

lastly, you can use these in your screen as a condition.

Code: Select all

screen map():
  textbutton "Location 1":
    action Jump("loc1")
    sensitive locations["loc1"]

you can do it this way as well


map code

Code: Select all

screen mapbuttons:
    imagebutton xalign 0.3 yalign 0.6:
        idle ("images/Buttons/button_home_hover.png")
        hover (im.MatrixColor("images/Buttons/button_home_hover.png",im.matrix.brightness(0.10)))
        action Call("home")

    if mapdorm:
        imagebutton xalign 0.5 yalign 0.1:
            idle ("images/Buttons/dormitory_i.png")
            hover ("images/Buttons/dormitory_h.png")
            action Call("dorm")

    if mapcollege:
        imagebutton xalign 0.7 yalign 0.1:
            idle ("images/Buttons/college_idle.png")
            hover ("images/Buttons/college_hover.png")
            action Call("college")

    if mapstore:
        imagebutton xalign 0.5 yalign 0.5:
            idle ("images/Buttons/store_i.png")
            hover ("images/Buttons/store_h.png")
            action Call("store")

either you can use init or default

Code: Select all

init:
    $ mapcollege = False
    $ mapstore = False
    $ mapdorm = False
