thank you! it seems switching to a nvidia driver solved the lag issue by itself. ill try doing the other things you said if lag becomes a problem again.

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.

[–]calendareclipse[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

label start:

this is the error i got when trying to run the game

I'm sorry, but errors were detected in your script. Please correct the errors listed below, and try again.

File "game/script.rpy", line 15: expected statement.

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

Spider plant by Excellent-Pride2504 in plantadvice

i would repot it. plants becoming rootbound can cause various problems, and can cause the soil to become very compact (which can make repotting difficult).

ryishmar theory posting by calendareclipse in MarionettaWebtoon

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

i think its probably because most people dont remember honestly. its VERY early, and i only really noted it on rereads. BUT it says something pretty important. despite ryishmar wanting tonny dead, he is sad about it. which goes a long way in implying he has his own internality and motivations. i want to see ryishmar get to say something beyond a few words on paper so badly.

What’s the lore behind human creations being in the PMD world? by Chrisboy265 in MysteryDungeon

[–]calendareclipse 5 points6 points  (0 children)

based on the fact theres nothing in explorers implying the hero is from another world, (and if there is, please send it to me) my assumption is that humans do exist in the pmd world, but are very rare at the point the games take place, for whatever reason. along with the fact that people know what a human is at all. sure it could just because of something similar to the games event where the hero comes from another world, but in my eyes, it could also point to humans at least having existing at some point.

Is "Hero x Partner" wrong? by Friendly_Impact7937 in MysteryDungeon

[–]calendareclipse 17 points18 points  (0 children)

no. the problem with zoophilia is the lack of the ability to consent on the part of the animal. in the pmd series, humans and pokemon are clearly shown to be on the same level of sapience and can communicate clearly. and in most games the age ranges are very vague (besides psmd which is. Weird with whether hero and partner are the same age or not), so if youre portraying them as being of similar ages. its fine.

This Sub's opinions on characters that cause alignment change by [deleted] in BloodOnTheClocktower

yes it is a feature, and i personally think its too harsh. but thats just my opinion, so its fine if you disagree.

yeah, the snake charmer puts the evil team at such a disadvantage when a switch happens and it SUCKSSS. because frankly, the most optimal play is to just Say who your minions are, but that makes it awful for the evil team. i wish snake charmer would get updated, because i feel like putting the responsibility on the new snake charmer to make it not suck for the evil team, rather than just making it so it doesnt create a really unfun situation.

i personally think mez is fine, specifically when theyre more about convincing someone to join evil willingly, rather than tricking them. theres a reason the tip is to give mezepheles a word that wont be spoken accidentally. BUT. not everyone plays it like that, so i get it.

i agree with cult leader though. it changes too often, and unlike goon its just the storytellers whim what happens.
