How do you make the dialogue box stay?

[anlo09]

Hey, I just wanted to ask how to make the dialogue box to stay while the characters are changing emotions or moving, because when I am making my VN the dialogue box keeps disappearing for milliseconds... Please help... Thanks.

Try adding:

Code: Select all

window show 

Before moving the character or changing their emotion.

Try the new

Code: Select all

window auto

statement, added in Ren'Py 6.17.0. It should cause the window to stay visible until you use a 'scene' command. This might be preferable to 'window show' because you only need to use it once.

^That sounds nifty :0.

Where should I put that? In the options, or script? Thanks in advance.

In the script.

Thanks, but how about the name box? It also keeps disappearing...

And old remedy that should still work:

Code: Select all

label start:

    $ _window_during_transitions = True
    # Rest of your game...
