sugarcube-2 VS custom-macros-for-sugarcube-2

I'm currently using Twine 2.3.9 with Sugarcube 2.36.1 and trying to run the numberpool macro. I've posted the CSS and JS files into the "Edit Story Stylesheet" and "Edit Story JavaScript" text boxes, respectively. But when I try to run the numberpool macro, I wind up with the error code:

SugarCube is a little more barebones, but this also means more freedom. If you are a little more experienced with HTML, CSS and JavaScript (or plan to learn some by making a Twine game), I'd recommend learning SugarCube rather than Harlowe. Documentation: https://www.motoslave.net/sugarcube/2/

You can go without it and feel fine. But if you have custom stuff, you'll use some macros and scripts. What are they? Imagine Twine as a core, but it has various engines that do things differently. It supports four such engines(story formats) to make the creation process more accessible. Each of them varies in complexity. In this article, I'll be using SugarCube.

I strongly suggest you consider changing your project to using the 2.x series of SugarCube instead.

As for examples, I would suggest looking at the source code of SugarCube's own built-in macros, because they use the same APIs as you would to create your own custom macros.

I'd recommend switching to the SugarCube story format, if it's not too late for you to do that. It has an approach which is far more open and amenable to creating your own custom inputs, such as sliding bars.

I strongly recommend using the SugarCube story format, since it's flexible and has the most built-in tools of any of the default Twine story formats. In the SugarCube "CSS" documentation section, it shows you how you can change backgrounds using tags you set in your passages and CSS you put in your Stylesheet section. Also, if you really want to have your own UI in SugarCube, you can use the StoryInterface special passage to change the layout however you want (though this will take knowing a bit of HTML and CSS).

This means that you just need to update your version of SugarCube to get your code to work. The easiest way to do that is to just update to the latest stable release of the Twine editor. If you're not using the Twine editor, then you can download the latest version of the SugarCube story format from the SugarCube site.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by a "full list of selectors". I'd recommend checking out the SugarCube "CSS" documentation, especially the "Built-in Stylesheets" section. You might also check out the "Bleached" stylesheet, from the SugarCube 2 page.

I have the following code that opens a dialog box and let's the player select an item. It uses two different macros made by ChapelR: Simple Inventory v2 (https://github.com/ChapelR/custom-macros-for-sugarcube-2/blob/master/docs/simple-inventory.md#macro-linkedinventory) and Dialog API Macro Set (https://github.com/ChapelR/custom-macros-for-sugarcube-2/blob/master/docs/dialog-api-macro-set.md).

I'm working on a game that is pretty heavy on using timed and type macros. The type macros at the very least I can skip through by pressing space, and I'd like to do the same for the timed sections. I have the event macro from ChapelR (https://github.com/ChapelR/custom-macros-for-sugarcube-2/blob/master/docs/event-macros.md) and it's worked for other things. Does anyone know how I'd do this?

note: I strongly suggest you let Chapel know about this potential issue with the options() function on their custom-macros-for-sugarcube-2 GitHub reposition.

So I'm trying to insert my images in dialogue boxes (The macro I'm using for it is here: https://github.com/ChapelR/custom-macros-for-sugarcube-2/blob/master/docs/dialog-api-macro-set.md) Using a folder with images in my game folder. And for some reason no matter what I do the images don't show up even though i followed the code right.

So, I downlaoded the Custom Macro “Speech Box System” https://github.com/ChapelR/custom-macros-for-sugarcube-2/blob/master/docs/speech-box-system.md This Macro works using Java and CSS. I know how to edit CSS, but Java eludes me completely. The thing is, this macro lets me create a character and assing an image to show its avatar. I want to do that, but I need the avatar to change based on a Twine variable ($mood ) I know how to write the code in Twine, that is not the problem. But the .js is written in such a way, that the avatar section only works for images, so it does not allow a variable, even if the variable == an img . Can someone tell me what is it that I have to change in the .js? Thanks!

I'm working on a VN-style game in Sugarcube, and specifically trying to figure out dialogue boxes. I've been able to get pretty close to what I want, using the information from this link.

I've used Chapel's Event Macro to set up some hotkeys for easy navigation of my game. All went well, but I ran into the problem of what happens if there's a text input (<>) field on the screen: typing something in it could accidentally trigger a hotkey rather than what the player actually wants to type!
