postdisplay tasks have been deprecated and should no longer be used. Activates the moment at the given offset from the active (present) moment within the full state history and show it. There's no way for the system to know ahead of time whether it's safe to re-execute a passage's contents. The StoryInit special passage is normally the best place to set up playlists. If using an integer delay, ideally, it should probably be slightly longer than the outgoing transition delay that you intend to usee.g., an additional 10ms or so should be sufficient. Calling the State.prng.init() methodformerly History.initPRNG()outside of story initialization will now throw an error. Provides access to browsers' fullscreen functionality. Note: Comments used within passage markup are not rendered into the page output. Returns an array of the story metadata store's keys. Your project's JavaScript section (Twine2: the Story JavaScript; Twine1/Twee: a script-tagged passage) is normally the best place to call importStyles(). In Twine, return to your project library by clicking the house icon in the lower-left corner of the Twine window. Starts playback of the selected tracks and fades them from the specified volume level to 0 (silent) over the specified number of seconds. If no conditional expression is given, it is equivalent to specifying true. Then close the dialog box. Additional timed executions may be chained via <
>. System events allow the execution of JavaScript code at specific points during story startup and teardown. If you simply want to apply actions to multiple tracks simultaneously, then you want a group instead. Returns a reference to the current AudioRunner instance for chaining. Sets the integer delay (in milliseconds) before the loading screen is dismissed, once the document has signaled its readiness. Returns a reference to the current jQuery object for chaining. If its return value is falsy, the override is cancelled and navigation to the original destination continues unperturbed. An alternative to navigating to passages to create menus, inventories, and the like would be to use the Dialog API. Note: Returns the string with its first Unicode code point converted to upper case, according to any locale-specific rules. UIBar API. Track event triggered when a fade starts. Aside from general syntax, SugarCube macros do not use hooks, separate arguments differently, and don't allow other macros to be passed as arguments. Specific elements can be accessed in an array by following its variable name with a pair of brackets containing the index to check. Note: Passage names have passage- prepended to their converted forms and are converted both into IDs and classes depending on how the passage is usedan ID for the active passage, classes for included (via <>) passages. Randomly removes the given number of members from the base array and returns the removed members as a new array. Registers the passage as a video passage. See Also: Returns the topmost (most recent) moment from the full in-play history (past + future). Deprecated: Harlowe's implementation of data types differs significantly from SugarCube's. Setting API method calls must be placed within your project's JavaScript section (Twine2: the Story JavaScript; Twine1/Twee: a script-tagged passage) or settings will not function correctly. Several State API methods have moved to the new Engine API. A side effect simply means that the evaluation of the expression modifies some state. In both cases, since the end goal is roughly the same, this means creating a new instance of the base object type and populating it with clones of the original instance's data. Twine1/Twee: Registers the passage as a CSS stylesheet, which is loaded during startup. Passage end. Warning: Normally, there will be only one such passage per turn, however, during passage navigation there may briefly be twothe incoming (a.k.a. We'll cover some of these differences below. Local event triggered on the typing wrapper when the typing of a section stops. Used for post-passage-display tasks, like redoing dynamic changes (happens after the rendering and display of each passage). Additionally, macros in SugarCube do not return values, so macros cannot be used as arguments to other macros. Registers the passage as <> macro definitions, which are loaded during startup. Be very careful with these if your audio sources are on the network, as you are forcing players to begin downloading them. Function behavior is immutable. Returns whether the passage with the given title occurred within the story history. May be called with, optional, link text or with a link or image markup. Returns a reference to the current AudioRunner instance for chaining. 3 4 4 comments Best Add a Comment ChapelR 4 yr. ago All user functions and macros that check for the existence of moments within the history check both the story history and expired moments, so will work as expected even if the history is limited to a single moment as described above. For example, the following will give you a basic crossfade: Determines whether the autosave, if it exists, is automatically loaded upon story startup. Because of the additional HTML elements added by the debug views, some nested markup and selectors may be broken. The value(s) within each case are compared to the result of the expression given to the parent <>. Returns the first Unicode code point within the string. Deprecated: Removes and returns a random member from the base array. To enable test mode while starting at a specific passage, right-click on a passage and select the Test Play From Here context menu item. The mute-on-hidden state controls whether the master volume is automatically muted/unmuted when the story's browser tab loses/gains visibility. The story title is not included in updates because SugarCube uses it as the basis for the key used to store and load data used when playing the story and for saves. If SugarCube is reloaded by one of its own built-in restart methods, then the session is. Gets or sets the mute-on-hidden state for the master volume (default: false). To prevent conflicts, it is strongly suggested that you specify a custom user namespacee.g., .myEventswhen attaching your own handlers. Note: Returns the number of milliseconds that have passed since the current passage was rendered to the page. Create a save, then edit the code as follows: Running that, you'll see $x is 0 and $y is 1. When SugarCube is reloaded by the browser, it checks if a playthrough session exists and loads it to prevent any inadvertent loss of progress. The UISystem API object has been split into two APIs Dialog and UI, and some of its methods have also changed. Returns a reference to the current jQuery object for chaining. Additionally, see the tagged stylesheet warning. The story history contains moments (states) created during play. If you need them, then you'll need to use a class or similar non-generic object. Warning: Returns a reference to the current jQuery object for chaining. Returns a new array containing all of the macro's ancestors that passed the test implemented by the given filter function or an empty array, if no members pass. Note: See Macro API for more information. Note: Outputs a string representation of the result of the given expression. A right angle bracket (>) that begins a line defines the blockquote markup. Determines whether the audio subsystem attempts to preload track metadatameaning information about the track (e.g., duration), not its audio frames. Next, the StoryInit special passage is processed. Note: Gets or sets the mute state for the master volume (default: false). Most interactive elementse.g., passage links, interactive macros, etc.cannot be properly copied via <>. Terminates the execution of the current <>. There are two main presentation formats for Twine 2.0 texts: Harlowe and Sugarcube. Tag it with the appropriate media passage special tag, and only that tagsee below. Removes the specified key, and its associated value, from the story metadata store. Warning: Twine 2: User Input in SugarCube Twine 2: Using Images in SugarCube Twine 2: Using Functions as Macros in Snowman Twine 2: Creating a Dungeon Crawler Part 1 Twine 2: Creating a Dungeon Crawler Part 2 Twine 2: Creating a Dating Sim Twine 2: Re-creating Candy Box Twine 2: Inventory Systems Twine 2: Murder Hill House Mystery Part 1 Arrays have many built-in methods and other features, and SugarCube adds many more. May eat line-breaks in certain situations. The directory and .py file names within the archive available for download are already properly matchedas sugarcube-2 and sugarcube-2.pyand to avoid issues it recommended that you simply do not rename them. There are ways to turn webapps into apps for mobile phones and Windows/Linux etc, but it's still running in a web browser under the hood. Used for pre-passage-display tasks, like redoing dynamic changes (happens before the rendering of each passage). Returns whether the track is currently unavailable for playback. In SugarCube, you instead open and close the <> macro itself: Some macros in Harlowe and SugarCube share a name but work a bit differently. Zorkish Sugarcube 6. See the <> section of the Twine1 reference documentation for more information. Used within <> macros. Temporary variables were added in v2.3.0. An array of strings, which causes the autosave to be updated for each passage with at least one matching tag. May be called with either the link text and passage name as separate arguments, a link markup, or an image markup. Note: Controls the playback of audio tracks, which must be set up via <>. In the above, the second (set:) macro is never run, and the $count variable remains at 0. Not everyone has Creates a text input box, used to modify the value of the variable with the given name, optionally forwarding the player to another passage. If you don't know what that means, then this API is likely not for you. Block widgets may access the contents they enclose via the _contents special variable. For example, if some story passages were tagged with forest, then styles for those forest passages might look like this: These are SugarCube's built-in stylesheets, in order of load/cascade. Loss of visibility is defined as when the browser window is either switched to another tab or minimized. Starts playback of the selected tracks and fades them from the specified volume level to 1 (loudest) over the specified number of seconds. Tip: See Setting API for more information. If there were errors, an exception is thrown. Begins playback of the track or, failing that, sets the track to begin playback as soon as the player has interacted with the document. Twine2: Unused. Gets or sets the playlist's volume level (default: 1). You will, very likely, never need to use State.current directly within your code. Initializes the seedable pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) and integrates it into the story state and saves. This macro has been deprecated and should no longer be used. You can have it hold numbers, text, and even other arrays! Several UI API methods have moved to the new Dialog API. This macro has been deprecated and should no longer be used. Dialog API. Returns whether the history navigation was successful (should only fail if already at the beginning of the full history). Collects tracks, which must be set up via <>, into a playlist via its <
