Character Stats Question [SOLVED]

[Pink_Juicy]

Is it possible to be able to code something like the attachment below? Sort of like those games where in the beginning you can customize the character's stats

It can be quite simple to do.

You'd need a few variables and a screen.

Code: Select all

default stat_kindness = 0
default stat_strength = 0
default stat_magic = 0
default available_points = 5

screen Stats():
    vbox align(.5,.5):
        # You can repeat the below for each stat
        hbox:
            text "Kindness"
            null width 30
            textbutton "-":
                action SetVariable("stat_kindness", stat_kindness-1), SetVariable("available_points", available_points+1)
                if stat_kindness <= 0:
                    sensitive False # Only if you don't want the stat to be below 0
            text str(stat_kindness)
            textbutton "+":
                action SetVariable("stat_kindness", stat_kindness+1), SetVariable("available_points", available_points-1)
                if available_points <= 0:
                    sensitive False
        text "Available points: [available_points]"

That's just a basic code, I'd also recommend checking the documentation to customize the appearance of your screens.

nice!!! thank you!! also, how do you set max points for certain stats?

Pretty much the same way you set the minimum amount of points, like so:

Code: Select all

textbutton "+":
    action SetVariable("stat_kindness", stat_kindness+1), SetVariable("available_points", available_points-1)
    if available_points <= 0 or stat_kindness == 10: # change 10 to whatever you want, you could also use a variable to set the maximum if you wanted to
        sensitive False
