so im creating a concept art screen that eventually unlocks at some point
this is the code i used for its button:

 label _("Concept Sketches:")
            vbox: 
                yalign 0.5
                spacing 20
                imagebutton idle "Co (2).png" hover "Co (3).png" action [ ShowMenu("concepts"), SensitiveIf(persistent.concept) ] insensitive "Co (1).png"
############################
screen concepts():

    tag menu
    
    use game_menu(_("Extras"), scroll="viewport"):

        style_prefix "Extras"

        vbox:
 
            label _("{b}Concept Art{/b}")
            
            image ("C (1).png")
            image ("C (2).png")   #####i added these images as quick samples so dont mind them

the button appeared as planned, so this part is okay
in the beginning of my script file i added these:

Code: Select all

default concept = False

then i added this at some point of the game

Code: Select all

 $ persistent.concept = True

makes sense right?
For some reason the persistent data statement is not unlocking my button at all. I used the exact same code for my other buttons and they worked perfectly but apparently my concept art button is completely cursed and its not working at all

I have no idea why its acting this way, i even checked my spelling and indentation several times but there were no problems with them

Code: Select all

default persistent.concept = False

that didnt really work, its still locked. its weird because ive been using the same code for all my buttons and they work perfectly except for this one

Your issue was that you forgot to add persistent. to the front of your variable when defining / creating it.

The variable you defined:

Code: Select all
default concept = False

The variable you tried to adjust/use:
