Normally you can highlight things to see where you can go screenshot0001.png
But if I make a save with URM installed and load that save I can't

And if you can rollback from this you have to tell me because I don't how.

  • What version of URM are you using (make sure it's the latest)?
    • latest
  • Which game has the issue (preferable a link to the game's thread)
  • What did you do that caused the issue?
    • dragging the progressbar
  • What OS are you on?
    • Windows 10
  • Do you have any other mods installed?
    • yes, ZLZK's Universal Choice Descriptor

I've been running into a weird problem lately with some games when dragging the progressbar in the game screen*.
if I show the progressbar it usually isn't exactly where I would like it to be.
But after starting to drag it to my preferred location, I can only drag it a short distance and then the mouse stops responding to the left button. The progressbar ofcourse still isn't where I want it to be, but I can't do anything anymore, the game totally stops responding to left-clicks. Right-clicks still get detected though. Scroll wheel also still gets detected, it's just the left button actions that don't get detected anymore, but only in the game. Outside of the game the left-button still works as intended.

*It gets weirder though, if I do the same on the game's Preference or Load/Save screens, it doesn't happen.

The game in question is build on Ren'Py 7.3.5 and the main language is Spanish with English translation in the TL folder.
At first, I thought it might be the Ren'Py version, and converting the game to say 7.4.11 does indeed solve it. But it's not just any 7.3.5 version, I've got other games using the same engine version where it just works fine, e.g. No More Money
This is difficult. I can't reproduce this issue and I don't really know what could cause this.

I'm playing Being a DIK and using URM 2.5 on windows 10, and I'm having a problem where if I make a save during a free roam while URM is installed, then loading that save causes the markers that let you move between rooms to not appear.
Interesting find. I'll try to see if I can figure out what's happening there.

With the addition of the ability to ignore certain variable and pathing checks recently this mod has become even better, so many pointless or just minor checks can be muted and i am so happy you took that request to heart. If i may request one small addition to it though, could you also give us the power to ignore the 'in replay' check? Some devs use it a lot in order to make music and sound effects play in replay that would be missing otherwise as the replay flag starts after them all too often. As it stands, it's the only annoying alert left for me, every time i check it only to see it's the replay one i groan, we're inches from perfection, almost there... :LOL:
Interesting. I was under the assumption you could, but the problem is that _in_replay doesn't have a value outside of are replay, thus you cannot find this variable.
I'll look into that.

My solution is to assign False to the variable
That way, unless they are explicitly checking if a variable is set (which would be extremely rare), you can search for it in URM and keep the same functionality

I was afraid of that, it's not consistent, as in it's not with every game, like I said, I first suspected the renpy version, but I also have other games using the same version where it does not happen.
Also I use the exact same combination of mods (URM/ZLKZ's UCD) and my own stuff in every game, where it works fine too, so it's not like it's something caused by those addins, at least not directly.
I suspect it must be a combination of things with some games, and if you're missing that one factor, you probably won't see it happen.
Strangest thing is it only happens in the game screen, if it happens at all. In Load/Save/Prefrences screens it's no issue.
