NVL Support

[Bronya-Rand]

Dan removed NVL support for DDLC for some reason which is built into Ren'Py itself. With some assistance from others who use NVL in their mods already, others can also use it optionally for their own mods also.

Tested now and works in current stage.

How to use this feature:

• Define characters in the game for NVL use only. Example: define mn = Character('Monika', kind=nvl, color="#c8ffc8") 'Monika' is the name of the character kind=nvl tells Ren'Py this character is for NVL use color="#c8ffc8" tells Ren'Py the color the name should be for the character's NVL Text.

• Define the narrator via define narrator = nvl_narrator

• When you want to activate NVL, do nvl clear first then do window show. Afterwards setup dialogue for your NVL characters/narrator to say.

• When you are done with NVL Mode, do window hide and do a nvl clear again for the next use of NVL.

Issues that may appear from this feature:

• Mod Authors defining NVL Mode names as Character('m_name' will not work. Requires manual input of the name.
• Window is "very beta". Shows a white window. White window can be changed in both gui.rpy and screens.rpy by searching NVL in the author's respective coding program/IDE to another color or maybe image.
• Text responses are separated a lot from one line to the other and may require decrease to fit more lines or a lot of nvl clear calls to avoid cut out text due to long lines.
