Ren'py 7.4.0.1167 Update


Don't worry nothing in kinetic_text_tags.rpy has changed. But for anyone that was making use of automatic style inheritance provided by text.py I gave, this is mostly for them. With Ren'py 7.4, the text.py got updated. So I decided to take the liberty of making a new version of it as well. Though, I didn't actually explain automatic style inheritance on here before, so I doubt many people made use of it. So I should probably explain it a bit.

You can read up more on this on the Github, but for a brief overview, it's completely optional to install the text.py at all. Everything in kinetic_text_tags.rpy will still work. But due to how Ren'py works, if you used a kinetic text tag in a textbutton, it wouldn't update its styling correctly when hovered over or what not. And more generally, if you had custom styling outside the tag, it wouldn't be inherited into the kinetic text tag either. So you'd have to include that style info within the kinetic text tag again in order to be sure it applied within it.  So this was a way of getting around that. Though you can also use imagebuttons as well to fix the textbutton issue, which is what is used in the main build. 

So this is just for people who don't want to have to do all that extra work to work around the issue. Just replace the text.py within your Renpy folder and add set_style() and set_style_prefix() functions into your text wrapper classes to enable style stuff to be automatically inherited.

Again for more information on this, please check the Github. As well for more information on installation and removal if you decide you don't want to use it. https://github.com/SoDaRa/Kinetic-Text-Tags And if you encounter any issues with it, please let me know and I'll be happy to help!
