[Solved] Call python function through textbutton

[Michael Regal]

Please help. This might be a simple solution but I'm having problems. I have this:

Code: Select all

$ player_inv.take(potion)

which is a function inside a class here:

Code: Select all

        def take(self, item, qty=1):
            if self.qty(item):
                item_location = self.check(item)
                self.inv[item_location][1] += qty
            else:
                self.inv.append([item,qty])

But I want to call it from a textbutton. How do I do this?

Please help!

You want to give the button an "action Function(...)" https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screen_a ... l#Function

Yes, I know this much. But I don't know the syntax beyond "action Function(args...)"

It's fine though. I've about given up on this

Did you read reference? It explains syntax:

Function(callable, *args, **kwargs)
This Action calls callable with args and kwargs.

callable
Callable object.

That means you place what you call (the thing before brackets) as callable:
Function(player_inv.take ...

args
position arguments to be passed to callable.

Since you are using a single positional argument, you place it here:
Function(player_inv.take, potion)
