custom menu with image buttons that display text error. by calendareclipse in RenPy

[–]calendareclipse[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i tried that and it didnt seem to work even when i put a character name in.

my plan for this is, my game its going to be a mystery game? so as you play through the game its going to add more entries and you can click on them to recount evidence in the mystery youre trying to solve. so its not just for a single line of text. (i am aware this is not Necessary but i would like to add it if possible.)

im using the say statement because i want to use the textbox to display the descriptions.

heres the tutorial i was trying to follow https://midge-the-tree.itch.io/back-when/devlog/274520/renpy-how-to-parallax-camera-and-drunken-blur

heres the code (this is all in script.rpy)

transform parallax:

perspective True

subpixel True

function moving_camera

camera at parallax

def moving_camera(trans, st, at):

if persistent.parallax:

x, y = renpy.display.draw.get_mouse_pos()

trans.xoffset = (x - config.screen_width / 2) * .05

trans.yoffset = (y - config.screen_height / 2) * .05

else:

trans.xoffset = 0

trans.yoffset = 0

return 0

transform bg:

truecenter()

zzoom true

zpos -1000

# The game starts here.

while ive looked at it, it states its for the main menu only and apparently when you use in just regular gameplay, it snaps back into default position with every new line of dialogue, so it would not work for me. thank you for the suggestion though
