[Solved] Randomly appearing images are skipping.

[K-PSZH]

So, I added a randomly choosen image to my screen.

Code: Select all

screen main_menu():
    tag menu
    add gui.main_menu_background
    add renpy.random.choice(["gui/main_menu/characters/1.png", "gui/main_menu/characters/2.png", "gui/main_menu/characters/3.png"])

But they're changing, when I press Ctrl. Is there a way to disable button in main menu or just fix the problem?

This line of code picks random image

Code: Select all

add renpy.random.choice(...)

and it will pick random image every time screen will be redrawn (and it happens from time to time).

To prevent image change try it like

Code: Select all

screen main_menu():
    default random_img = None # screen variable

    # choose image if not yet
    if not random_img:
        $ random_img = renpy.random.choice(["gui/main_menu/characters/1.png", "gui/main_menu/characters/2.png", "gui/main_menu/characters/3.png"])

    tag menu
    add gui.main_menu_background
    add random_img

edit: corrected the code
