So, I've been having this problem for a while now and until now I've always been trying to work around it, but it's getting really annoying.
So, I let an image of a character appear onscreen:
Code: Select all
show character okita at mid
with Dissolve(.5)
Then, a few lines later, I try adding another one:
Code: Select all
show character karuu at l
with Dissolve(.5)
The only problem is that okita disappears as soon as I make karuu appear. Could that be because I use the same names (okita and karuu) as image tags? Just speculation on my part though.
Would be grateful if you could help!

It's probably because you're using 'character' as the first image tag on both cases. If you really need to use it you should place it after the name so Renpy treats them as different entities.
Code: Select all
image okita character = "okita.png"
image karuu character = "karu.png"
