RENPY JEDIT VS EDITRA DOWNLOAD

In happier news I managed to make clicking on a thread work. Say MC receives a new IM that she absolutely has to read in order to further the story, do I force the NVL dialogue to pop up or just pause the game until the player goes to click on the conversation? I’m sure there’s a perfect way to handle it, I just have to find it. These should go in the private tab of the Crypto menu. The jEdit editor remains supported, and is preferred for.

On the other hand, if I force the player to click through everything, why even give them the option to click? Same goes for 1-on-1 conversations. If Editra is selected by the user, and it is not installed, RenPy will automatically download it. Some things are optional (like all the random threads people write), but some should definitely be read to further the story. Right now it’s made in a way that the player can go in, check what’s new or not. I’m still debating Crypto’s functionality. They don’t have color or emotion, but they help me visualize the story. I want her to have redeeming qualities and not be just another one-dimensional stuck-up mean girl.Īlso, I started using placeholders for the characters.

I try really hard not to make Alba a total b with an itch. They were pretty fun to write, I feel like I’m getting a better handle on their personality. I wrote the first encounters between MC and some of the other chars: Casper, Finn and Alba. 0.8.5 app-editors/dhex 0.68 app-editors/e3 2.8 app-editors/editra 0.7.20. I reached 4500 words which is not a lot, but it’s progress. These aren’t big problems though and I’m willing to live with them. One thing that bothers me is that it doesn’t seem to auto-indent (on pressing enter) like jEdit did, nor does it have the Ctrl + I thing that automatically indented a chunk of code. I also changed the enviroment colors, for example the background to a nice dark blue that’s easier on the eyes then the stark white it was before. Editra is pretty cool and has spellcheck which is awesome. Personally, I use many files I'm writing a 6 chapter game.

So it's ultimately a matter of preference for the developer. The launcher looks great and I looove the new features. Functionality wise, it doesn't really matter if you have one huge file or many ones. I found the answer and when it didn’t work I realised it was because I hadn’t upgraded Ren’py. I didn’t even know there was a new version until I looked for answers to some coding problem I had.
