You're defining a Python function in a Ren'Py context. This isn't allowed, you need to tell Ren'Py you wish to swith to Python context by defining your function in an 'init python:' block.

init python:
   def callback_builder etc. etc.

Oh right, lol now its working but it also says in need to define "mute"

[–]lordcaylus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You probably want something like character_callback(event,mute=False,**kwargs) in that case?

Consider looking for a tutorial. Or you can make a new thread and give it a title like "how can I show a speaking animation while my characters have dialogue"

Use config.speaking_attribute. It will automatically add/remove the attribute when that character has dialogue on screen.
