[SOLVED] Can keyboard input be timed?
Can you set it up so that if you don't type something in on time, something happens?

Re: Can keyboard input be timed?
Yes.
so, ui.timer() start a timer, the first value is the time to wait (6.0 seconds), the second is what to do.
I placed ui.jumps() , that jump to a label, in that, the label "verybad".
I didn't tested with Keyboard Inputs, only with menus, so I can't say if it works.
Code: Select all
$ ui.timer(6.0, ui.jumps("verybad"))
$ value = renpy.input("INPUT SOMETHING!!!")
"Yeah, you've wrote [value]."

...O_O I can see it now! Asura's Wrath: the visual novel!
Well not exactly but I have always wondered if I could add a little action to a standard VN by adding timed choices that result in bad outcomes if you dont react in time rather than just choosing the wrong option. Sort of like Dragon's Lair, but then again I guess that's kinda the original quick time event game anyway.
