Pretty much what it says as the title, is this something you can do? As far as I can tell it isn't, and I've messed around with it a lot, but I figured I'd ask before throwing in the towel.
And in case it isn't entirely clear what I mean, I mean having a character's name on here instead of the empty narrator, like they're asking you to enter text
Is it possible for the renpy.input dialogue to be said by a character and not the narrator?

You can easily fake it.
You can go into screens.rpy to add a character's name as part of the input screen. (You can copy the namebox stuff over from the say screen.)

Re: Is it possible for the renpy.input dialogue to be said by a character and not the narrator?
Could you show me how that code should look? I'm using the legacy GUI so I'm not sure if what I'm using is the same as what you're using, and I don't have a full comprehension of how the say screen code works enough to confidently know what needs to be copy pasted or where it needs to go...

Hi,
I'm trying to do the same...
I want one of my characters to ask 'What is your name?' but I'm not sure how to do this.
E.g.
This:
Jenna
What is your name?
[Player types here]
Rather than:
What is your name?
[Player types here]
Thanks in advance.

Re: Is it possible for the renpy.input dialogue to be said by a character and not the narrator?
Bump. 5 years later, this is what google brings me to, and it isn't answered. I'd like a character with name and left side image (all of which sorted, and I know how to to the standard input too) to ask for the input instead of the narrator. No solution? I'll google some more ...
