There are only a couple super beyond basic tutorial on making a smartphone in Ren'py (that I can find) - I'm looking for some guide/documentation that can help me build something that has similar functionality to Dr Pinkcake's smartphone in Being a Dik. Any suggestions?

I'm an Idiot - I realized this should be posted under Dev Help. Can a mod move this perhaps or remove so i can re-post?

try to reverse-engineer this code to get the basic gist and then adjust the code for your needs:


And yes, it's basically screens and how to use them.

EDIT: Otherwise, just reverse-engineer the code from the game, that you're trying to copy.

If depend how complex you want it to be, basically it's just a screen and a list for the messages. All depending of what will be on the list.
And what's on the list depend of how far you want to go with the system. It can be a basic tuple, or a complex object.
But in the end, the final code will probably follow the same really basic logic ; because there's really no need to over do it to have a good result.

[Note: The codes are wrote on the fly and it's past midnight, there's perhaps few issues.]

Obviously, the style will need more works, but the idea is here. There's no real need to go further, it would complicate the code and not necessarily make everything works better.
At most putting the image behind an imagebutton to offer a bigger view on click.
