Thank you so much for making this code. One issue. Now all my dialogue is appearing as a text. Do I need to have duplicate characters, one for normal operations and one for texting?

Code: Select all

define alena = Actor(Character("Alena") 
define adrian = Actor(Character("Adrian") 

define alenatext = Character("Alena", kind=nvl)
define adriantext = Character("Adrian", kind=nvl)

Yes exactly, you need to create duplicate just like you would do to differentiate NVL characters from classic ones!
Thanks a lot for trying my code, I'm glad it's useful to you :D

It rocks. I'm not a coder and was a little scared about trying to implement, but turned out to be pretty easy.

Question. I replaced the phone_foreground.png and phone_background.pnp. Looks sweet, but send and receive icons are off the phone to the left.

Is this where I change the text size...

Code: Select all

creen nvl_phonetext(dialogue):
    style_prefix None

    $ previous_d_who = None
    for id_d, d in enumerate(dialogue):
        if d.who == None: # Narrator
            text d.what:
                    xpos -335
                    ypos 0.0
                    xsize 350
                    text_align 0.5
                    italic True
                    size 28
                    slow_cps False
                    id d.what_id
                    if d.current:
                        at message_narrator

This is really cool, and I will be 100% adding it to my game. I have been testing with it, however it appears all messages appear on the same Screen. Is there a way to have different "conversations" for different characters? I am still getting to grips with the more complex coding, so am a little lost.

Thanks in advance
