A Question about Text In-put [SOLVED]

[aussieducky]

So I know you can use text in-put to name a character, but can you use it to answer questions? In my game, I want the player to solve puzzles by typing in words and numbers. The answers are going to be very simple - no sentences. Is this possible? :0

That is entirely possible! The Doll's stories is one game I can think of that uses the text input quite extensively. But you can use it for simpler things as well.

The simplest way to do this is:

Code: Select all

    $ answer = renpy.input(_("What is your answer?")) 
    
    "My answer is [answer]." 
    
    if answer =="Correct Answer": #change to whatever the answer of the riddle is
        "You're correct!"
    else:
        "You're wrong!"

This topic: http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewto ... =8&t=29320 has quite a bit of information in it, if you skip the parts about making the actual keyboard, you can find out a lot about setting up passwords and specific answers. Like for example, you can set it so that the input only accepts numbers or specific characters.

Thank you so much! This works perfectly!
