Renpy custom Positions changing randomly [closed]

[minyan]

Hello, I often have this problem and I'm finally asking instead of just giving up!
Every time I define a custom position, or transform for a sprite, each time the sprite is shown it's in a different place.
For example:

Code: Select all

init: 
 define cen = Position(ypos=900, xalign = 0.5)

And in the script:

Code: Select all

    show lune_ at cen

Each time I show the sprite, he'll be in a different location on the screen, even though it's the same position. I tried to do it with a transform:

transform cent:
ypos 900
xalign 0.5

And had the same problem. I'll test it with multiple sprites, and they'll all be in the correct position, and then the next time they're shown in the script with that same code, they'll be on the other side of the screen, or very low, or very high. It's so odd, does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Literally if I put:

Code: Select all

show lune_ at cen 
"..."
hide lune_ 
show lune_ at cen 

That second time the sprite is shown, he's in a drastically different location.

How the sprite is defined? Just to make sure it is not coming from the sprite itself.

Each time I show the sprite, he'll be in a different location on the screen, even though it's the same position. I tried to do it with a transform:

Have you tried creating another project and testing the alignment in it?
Are you sure there are no more variables named "cen" in your code?
Can the size of the sprite change?
Have you tried defining not using define but using $ ?
Have you tried using a different alignment method?

Code: Select all

init:
    $ x = 0.5
    $ y = 200
	$ cen = Transform(xalign=x, ypos=y)

What do you mean by different location? Is the offset in x or y or in x and y at once?

I figured it out, it was coming from my layered sprite! There was one image in the layers that was a larger size and it was causing the sprite to move when it was used.

Thanks for the assistance!
