Hi everyone, I have doubts about renpy game settings.
In the preferences I find myself:
skip
- Unseen Text
- After Choices
- Transitions

but what do they mean?

What does Unseen Text do? Does it make the lyrics disappear? But this is already done by the H key which, if pressed, hides the text and when you press it again, the text becomes visible again ... I don't understand what it does.

Then what does After Choices do?

And finally, what does Transitions avoid? Do you avoid that there is a transition between one slide and the other and does it make the change clear without fading?

Thanks in advance to everyone for the answers :)

Uhm...ok now it's slightly clearer. Let's see if I understand:

1) Skip Unseen Text : if it is selected it allows me to skip (pressing SKIP) also the texts still to be displayed, correct?

2) Skip After Choice : if it is selected when I press skip I skip the choice made previously, while if it is deleselected arrived at the choice it stops me and allows me to choose, right?

3) Skip Transitions : if checked it does not show any transition, right? It's just not clear to me what a transition is ... are the transitions that are there when the image changes? So like fading or something?

1) Correct. Normally when you hit the skip button, it'll only keep skipping up until you hit a line in the script that hadn't been previously seen during a playthrough.

2) Not correct. If selected, ren'py will RESUME skipping once the player has inputted the choice. Otherwise, it'll stop skipping once you've made the choice.

3) Correct. Transitions are things like

So what does H-Game mean?
Hmm, not really the place to ask this, but on this forum context, it mean Hentai games. Some use it to design any games with sexual content, while others limit the meaning to Japanese/Asian 2D games.
