Returns a new array consisting of the source array with all sub-array elements concatenated into it recursively up to the given depth. Selects all internal link elements within the passage elemente.g., passage and macro links. Returns the number of existing templates. most recent commit 3 months ago. Begins playback of the playlist or, failing that, sets the playlist to begin playback as soon as the player has interacted with the document. This means that non-widget uses of these special variable are completely safe, though this does have the effect that uses external to widgets are inaccessible within them unless passed in as arguments. All these instructions are based on the SugarCube story format. Registers the passage as an image passage. In the Add a New Format tab, paste in the file path to format.js and click the green Add button. Determines whether outgoing passage transitions are enabled. The pull count is automatically included within saves and sessions, so this is not especially useful outside of debugging purposes. NOTE: This should not be confused with story variables, which start with a $e.g., $foo. The function will be called just before the built-in no-break passage processing if you're also using thatsee the Config.passages.nobr setting and nobr special tag. There are two main presentation formats for Twine 2.0 texts: Harlowe and Sugarcube. Returns whether the named template exists. There are many differences between Harlowe and SugarCube, this guide will document some of the most critical you will need to account for if you're coming to SugarCube from a background in Harlowe. Those that bundle SugarCube v2: Any series of Twine2 with a version 2.1. See: Because of the additional HTML elements added by the debug views, some nested markup and selectors may be broken. To pass expressions or the results of functions to macros as an argument, you must wrap the expression in backquotes (`). Returns a save object from the given slot or null, if there was no save in the given slot. Appends the given content to the dialog's content area. Generates no output. Periods of ellipsis () signify data that is generated at compile time. API members dealing with the history work upon either the active momenti.e., presentor one of the history subsets: the full in-play historyi.e., past + futurethe past in-play subseti.e., past onlyor the extended past subseti.e., expired + past. The default foreground and background colors are set here. Functions, including statici.e., non-instancemethods, due to a few issues. Interrupts an in-progress fade of the currently playing track, or does nothing if no fade is progressing. If you simply want to apply actions to multiple tracks simultaneously, then you want a group instead. For example, if the name of SugarCube's directory is sugarcube, then the name of the .py file within must be sugarcube.py. The equivalent SugarCube code works a bit differently: SugarCube does not terminate the parsing of the calling passage, so some care is required when calling <>. Warning: Returns a reference to the UIBar object for chaining. Before beginning, make sure that your Twine game is set up for the SugarCube format. Returns whether enough data has been loaded to play the track through to the end without interruption. A Twine 2 proofing format that renders nodes as a GraphViz (dot) graph. Returns whether playback of the track has ended. You can see this effect by changing data outside the state. Wikifies the given content source(s) and appends the result to the target element(s). : fired, triggered) to notify code that something has taken place, from player interactions to automated happenings. By default, it uses Math.random() as its source of (non-deterministic) randomness, however, when the seedable PRNG has been enabled, via State.prng.init(), it uses that (deterministic) seeded PRNG instead. If you click the link that sets the variable to 2, and then save the story, the $var variable will still be saved as 1, because a new moment has not yet been created. Does not modify the original. To resolve these instances, you will need to quote the name of the variablei.e., instead of passing $pie as normal, you'd pass "$pie". It will not work unless the output of the function is assigned or used in some way. TypeScript bindings for SugarCube APIs can found as the Definitely Typed package: @types/twine-sugarcube. Returns whether the given substring was found within the string, starting the search at position. For standard browser/DOM events, see the Event reference @MDN. This macro has been deprecated and should no longer be used. This is only really useful when you want to invoke a macro for its side-effects and aren't interested in its output. Executes its contents and replaces the contents of the selected element(s) with the output. Returns the given code string, and optional data chunk, wrapped within the JSON deserialization revive wrapper. See Passage API for more information. An options object should have some of the following properties: Changes the disabled state of the target WAI-ARIA-compatible clickable element(s). See the <> macro for its replacement. The value(s) within each case are compared to the result of the expression given to the parent <>. It is passed an abbreviated version of the associated passage's Passage instancecontaining only the tags, text, and title properties. Happens before the end of passage navigation. Deprecated: Begins playback of the track or, failing that, sets the track to begin playback as soon as the player has interacted with the document. Warning: Track event triggered when playback is stopped after .stop() or .stop() is calledeither manually or as part of another process. Note: Only the primitives, generic objects, some JavaScript natives (specifically: Array, Date, Map, RegExp, and Set), and DOM node objects are supported by default. Doing so allows interactions with the text to also trigger its <>. Returns whether fullscreen is both supported and enabled. See Macro API for more information. Selects all internal link elements within the passage element whose passages do not exist within the story. Does not affect script or stylesheet tagged passages, for Twine1/Twee. Calling the State.prng.init() methodformerly History.initPRNG()outside of story initialization will now throw an error. This is an estimate calculated by the browser based upon the currently downloaded data and the download rate. Returns the number clamped to the specified bounds. It must contain, at least, an element with the ID passages that will be the main passage display area. If you're simply looking to download ready-to-use localizations, see SugarCube's website (under Downloads > Localizations). Note: Interrupts an in-progress fade of the track, or does nothing if no fade is progressing. SugarCube is available in two major versions: the current 2.x series and the legacy 1.x series. See the :passageinit event for its replacement. The Share dialog only displays linksspecifically, anything that creates an anchor element (). Of the three Harlowe seems the most robusts, followed by SugarCube. Its contents are treated as raw HTML markupi.e., none of SugarCube's special HTML processing is performed. There are three forms: a conditional-only form, a 3-part conditional form, and a range form. Warning: Playlists are useful for playing tracks in a sequencei.e., one after another. To print the values contained within variables, see the naked variable markup and the <>, <<=>>, and <<->> macros. with 2.0. This property is automatically set based on whether you're using a testing mode in a Twine compileri.e., Test mode in Twine2, Test Play From Here in Twine1, or the test mode option (-t, --test) in Tweego. The _contents special variable is used internally, by container widgets, to store the contents they enclose. Returns whether a fade is in-progress on the track. active) and outgoing passages. Note: Instead, use Navigation Events or Tasks. This feature is largely incompatible with private browsing modes, which cause all in-browser storage mechanisms to either persist only for the lifetime of the browsing session or fail outright. Returns the number of passages within the story history that are tagged with all of the given tags. See: All changes within this version are elective changes that you may address at your leisure. This can be thought of as a special, temporary saved story, which is automatically deleted after the player's current browsing session ends. prehistory tasks have been deprecated and should no longer be used. Deprecated: When a new moment is created, SugarCube stores the playthrough state to session storage. Group IDs allow several tracks to be selected simultaneously without needing to specify each one individually. Used within <> macros. Note: Etc. The maximum number of loop iterations in the conditional forms is not unlimited by default, however, it is configurable. Warning: Story API. Deprecated: Elements that are already part of the page, on the other hand, present no issues. There's no way for the system to know ahead of time whether it's safe to re-execute a passage's contents. Returns the track's total playtime in seconds, Infinity for a stream, or NaN if no metadata exists. If you want to set a title for display that contains code, markup, or macros, see the StoryDisplayTitle special passage. To do so, click on the name of your story in its main "story map" view. See Also: Global event triggered as the last step in closing the dialog when Dialog.close() is called. This macro has been deprecated and should no longer be used. Gets or sets the playlist's volume mute state (default: false). See the State.prng.init() method for its replacement. Generally, this means only when the variable's value will change between the time the asynchronous macro is invoked and when it's activatede.g., a loop variable. To prevent conflicts, it is strongly suggested that you specify a custom user namespacee.g., .myEventswhen attaching your own handlers. The strings API object has been replaced by the l10nStrings object. Request that the browser toggle fullscreen modei.e., enter or exit as appropriate. Deprecated: Note: Returns a random value from its given arguments. Creates a single-use link that deactivates itself and prepends its contents to its link text when clicked. Gets or sets the mute state for the master volume (default: false). See Template API for more information. Creates a single-use link that deactivates itself and appends its contents to its link text when clicked. UI API. Additional timed executions may be chained via <>. Note: Note: This macro is functionally identical to <>, save that it uses a button element () rather than an anchor element (). Returns the bundled metadata, if any, or null if the given save could not be deserialized and loaded. Pauses playback of the selected tracks and, if they're not already in the process of loading, forces them to drop any existing data and begin loading. Selects all external link elements within the passage elemente.g., links to other pages and websites. Alias for jQuery, by default. Loading is done asynchronously at run time, so if the script must be available within a tight time frame, then you should use the Promise returned by the function to ensure that the script is loaded before it is needed. sugarcube-2: macros: customMacroName: container: true anotherOne: {} If using *.twee-config . Sets story $variables and temporary _variables based on the given expression. Deserializes the given save string, created via Save.serialize(), and loads the save. Used for pre-story-start initialization tasks, like variable initialization (happens at the beginning of story initialization). Returns whether the history navigation was successful (should only fail if the offset from the active (present) moment is not within the bounds of the full history). You may forcibly enable test mode manually by setting the Config object's debug property to true. Deprecated: Attaches single-use event handlers to the track. Additionally, SugarCube's normal <> macro does not have an output element associated with it and is not, by default, a single-use link like its Harlowe equivalent. They are called with no arguments, but with their this set to a template (execution) context object that contains the following data properties: String templates consist solely of a string, which may itself contain markup. If multiple passage titles are given, returns the lowest count. Twine 2 Editor Twine 2 Editor Story Listing Passages View Passages Story Formats Getting . They serve the same basic purpose as the <> macro, but are run each time passage navigation occurs. State API. Creates a single-use link that deactivates itself and replaces its link text with its contents when clicked. Note: They are defined via the Template API. Newer versions of Twine2 come bundled with a version of SugarCube v2, so you only need to read these instructions if you want to install a newer version of SugarCube v2 than is bundled or a non-standard release. Attaches fullscreen change event handlers. Returns whether playback of the playlist has ended. Circular references. The debug views may be toggled via the Views button. Does not flag other assignment operators. For normal projects, authors are encouraged to continue to use the StoryInit special named passage. Interactions with macros or other code that inject content only after some external action or periode.g., <>, <>, etc.may or may not behave as you'd expect. Allows the destination of passage navigation to be overridden. Arrays have many built-in methods and other features, and SugarCube adds many more. Returns the last Unicode code point within the string. A format item has the syntax {index[,alignment]}, square-brackets denoting optional elements. The handlers is passed two parameters, the save object to be processed and save operation details object. LoadScreen API. Roughly equivalent to the :passagedisplay event. See Story API for more information. The $args special variable has been deprecated and should no longer be used. Opens the built-in share dialog, which is populated from the StoryShare passage. Return the named template definition, or null on failure. Note: Warning: Code like <> seems to have no effect because the startup state is replaced by the of the incoming state, but they are still executed by the engine. However, due to a historical artifact, the arguments for the separate argument form of <> are in the reverse order (link then text). This process is the same regardless of where the loaded state is coming from: it could be a normal save, the autosave, or the playthrough session. Performs any required processing before the save data is saved. If you wish to use custom backgrounds, either simply colors or with images, then you should place them on the body element. Appends one or more members to the end of the base array and returns its new length. If you want to play tracks in a sequence, then you want a playlist instead. Note: Removes event handlers from the track. Deprecated: I've been trying to set up a two-dimensional array. The verbatim text markup disables processing of all markup contained withinboth SugarCube and HTMLpassing its contents directly into the output as plain text. Note: postrender tasks have been deprecated and should no longer be used. This should not be done lightly if your audio sources are on the network, as it forces players to begin downloading them. Generally, you would use this for data that does not change and should not be stored within story variables, which would make it part of the history. Warning: Loss of visibility is defined as when the browser window is either switched to another tab or minimized. Returns whether any of the target WAI-ARIA-compatible clickable element(s) are disabled. Feel free to add your own if that makes localization easiere.g., for gender, plurals, and whatnot. Returns whether any of the macro's ancestors passed the test implemented by the given filter function. Warning: Adds the value on the right-hand side of the operator to the current value on the left-hand side and assigns the result to the left-hand side. Now, load the saved story from before the changes were made, and you'll see $y is undefined, since it doesn't exist at all in the loaded state. 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. Executes its contents if the given conditional expression evaluates to true. Hides the loading screen, if no other locks exist. While it renders content just as any other passage does, instead of displaying the rendered output as-is, it sifts through the output and builds its menu from the generated links contained therein. Returns the current pull counti.e., how many requests have been madefrom the seedable PRNG or, if the PRNG is not enabled, NaN. Several things occur each and every time startup happens, regardless of whether or not a playthrough session will be restored, an autosave loaded, or the starting passage run. Note: In my version of Twine, the dialog box looks like this: In this dialog box, select the SugarCube alternative with the latest version number (SugarCube 2.x.x, the higher the numbers the better). Requirements. Returns a random member from the base array. Not generally necessary, however, some browsers render slower than others and may need a little extra time to get a media-heavy page done. The capitalization and punctuation used within the default replacement strings is deliberate, especially within the error and warning strings. An array is a container that holds things. You should see one line, press the arrow on the side to see all of it. Warning (Twine 2): Due to how the Twine . UI bar special passages update. See Guide: Media Passages for more information. Story variables are a part of the story history and exist for the lifetime of a playthrough session. Valid collection types are: arrays, generic objects, maps, sets, and strings. See: Returns the AudioList instance with the given list ID, or null on failure. Instead, use either the built-in functions random() & randomFloat() or the State.random() method, if you need direct access to the PRNGsince it returns a call to either Math.random() or the seedable PRNG, as appropriate. Returns the title of the passage associated with the active (present) moment. The documentation for each macro will tell you what it expects. A text replacement markup. Story variables are a part of the story history and exist for the lifetime of a playthrough session. This method has been deprecated and should no longer be used. Used to populate the authorial byline area in the UI bar (element ID: story-author). This series is intended for. Updates all sections of the UI bar that are populated by special passagese.g., StoryBanner, StoryCaption, StoryMenu, etc. Returns a reference to the current AudioRunner instance for chaining. Note: Temporary variables were added in v2.3.0. Shorthand for jQuery's .one() method applied to each of the audio elements. If you need them, then you'll need to use a class or similar non-generic object. To enable test mode from the Stories screen, click on the story's gear menu and select the Test Story menu item. Warning: It is not a mechanism for moving data between stories. The active passage's name will be added as its ID (see: Passage Conversions). Twee Code "Arrays": SugarCube (v2.18) Summary Arrays are a collection of values. Returns whether none of the track's data has been loaded.
