There is no one size fits all example for either of these methods because an instance's properties, and the data contained therein, are what determine what you need to do. Setting API. 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. Global event triggered as the first step in opening the dialog when Dialog.open() is called. Opens the built-in alert dialog, displaying the given message to the player. Returns a save object from the given slot or null, if there was no save in the given slot. If you simply want to empty the selected element(s), not remove them outright, you should use an empty <> macro instead. Generally, only really useful for running code that needs to manipulate elements from the incoming passage, since you must wait until they've been added to the page. Returns the size of the story metadata storei.e., the number of stored pairs. Starts playback of the selected tracks and fades them from the specified volume level to 0 (silent) over the specified number of seconds. You will also need to specify a .link-visited style that defines the properties visited links should have. Sets the selected tracks' volume mute state (default: false). 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. See the :passagedisplay event for its replacement. Returns an AudioRunner instance for the tracks matching the given selector. Prior to SugarCube v2.10.0, the strings localization object was named strings. Does not modify the original. As new moments are added, older moments that exceed the maximum number are expired in order of age, oldest first. Does not modify the original. See Localization for more information. The State.display() methodformerly state.display()is no longer overridable, meaning it cannot be wrappede.g., the "StoryRegions" 3rd-party add-ons do this. Note: Returns the first of the macro's ancestors that passed the test implemented by the given filter function or null, if no members pass. older versions of Twine2 used a icon for the same purpose. If you want to undo previous moments within the history, rather than return to a passage, see the <> macro. Audio runners are useful for performing actions on multiple tracks at once. Once initialized, the State.random() method and story functions, random() and randomFloat(), return deterministic results from the seeded PRNGby default, they return non-deterministic results from Math.random(). Warning: In most cases, you will not need to use <> as there are often better and easier ways to forward the player. The autosave is, for the most part, a normal save slot, but with a few special features built in. Note: Returns a new array filled with all Passage objects that pass the test implemented by the given predicate function or an empty array, if no objects pass. Circular references. Returns whether any moments with the given title exist within the past in-play history (past only). In SugarCube, they come in two types: story variables and temporary variables. The very first, and mandatory, character is their sigil, which denotes whether they are a story or temporary variable. It is strongly recommended that you use only one stylesheet passage. Thus, it is only truly useful if you plan to upgrade out-of-date saves via a Config.saves.onLoad callback. Sets the specified key and value within the story metadata store, which causes them to persist over story and browser restartsn.b. When used to set the volume, returns a reference to the current AudioTrack instance for chaining. The value(s) within each case are compared to the result of the expression given to the parent <>. 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 contents from the generated links contained therein. AudioTrack API, AudioRunner API, and AudioList API. The _contents special variable is used internally, by container widgets, to store the contents they enclose. Note: See the _args special variable for its replacement. Determines whether the <> macro types out content on previously visited passages or simply outputs it immediately. Note: predisplay tasks have been deprecated and should no longer be used. Returns how much remains of the playlist's total playtime in seconds, Infinity if it contains any streams, or NaN if no metadata exists. Yield the single line in the final output: An exclamation point (!) The Config.audio.pauseOnFadeToZero setting (default: true) controls whether tracks that have been faded to 0 volume (silent) are automatically paused. This setting has been deprecated and should no longer be used. As an example, the default replacement strings make use of this to handle various warning intros and outros. Sugarcube 2.21 use variable value in another variable name. Solution 1: Using before defining - Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined Case: Invoking the function or using a variable before declaring it. See Also: Gets or sets the track's current time in seconds. To resolve instances where you do, however, you'll want to use either a temporary variable or a backquote expression. Returns the string with its first Unicode code point converted to upper case. See Template API for more information. Skips ahead to the next track in the playlist, if any. Determines whether the autosave is created/updated when passages are displayed. Its return value should be the post-processed text. Hey! Note: Did you copy the included CSS into your Story Stylesheet? See Also: Note: Your project's JavaScript section (Twine2: the Story JavaScript; Twine1/Twee: a script-tagged passage) is normally the best place to call importScripts(). Returns a pseudo-random decimal number (floating-point) within the range of the given bounds (inclusive for the minimum, exclusive for the maximum)i.e., [min,max). Saving the story records the story's state up until the last moment that was created. You will, in all likelihood, use expressions most often within macrose.g., <>, <>, <>, <>. Doing so allows interactions with the text to also trigger its <>. Creates a multiline text input block, used to modify the value of the variable with the given name. This method will not detect "code" passagesi.e., script, stylesheet, and widget passages. Return the named macro tag's parents array (includes the names of all macros who have registered the tag as a child), or null on failure. Unstows the UI bar, so that it is fully accessible again. Does not modify the original. If you want the actual value, then instead of using the eval() function, you would use the To simply add a delay to the dismissal of the loading screen to hide initial flashes of unstyled content (FOUC)e.g., style changes and page reflowsyou do not need to use this API. SugarCube features a configurable autosave system. Renders the selected passage into the target element, replacing any existing content, and returns the element. See Story API for more information. Opens the built-in share dialog, which is populated from the StoryShare passage. All DOM macros require the elements to be manipulated to be on the page. If you don't know what that means, then this API is likely not for you. You must, generally, use them with an interactive macroe.g., <> macrothe <> macro, or within the PassageDone special passage. The SimpleAudio APIs use events internally for various pieces of functionality. classes), Updating to any version 2.30.0 from a lesser version, Updating to any version 2.29.0 from a lesser version, Updating to any version 2.28.0 from a lesser version, Updating to any version 2.20.0 from a lesser version, Updating to any version 2.15.0 from a lesser version, Updating to any version 2.10.0 from a lesser version, Updating to any version 2.8.0 from a lesser version, Updating to any version 2.5.0 from a lesser version, Updating to any version 2.0.0 from a lesser version, embedded image passage (Twine1 & Tweego only), https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/tmedwards/sugarcube-2/dist/format.js. Returns a new array consisting of the source array with all sub-array elements concatenated into it recursively up to the given depth. May be called either with the passage name or with a link markup. Deprecated: The story metadata, like saves, is tied to the specific story it was generated with. Warning: Thanks for submitting an issue. When used to set a value, returns a reference to the current AudioTrack instance for chaining. This is not an exhaustive list. Valid values are boolean true/false, which causes the UI bar to always/never start in the stowed state, or an integer, which causes the UI bar to start in the stowed state if the viewport width is less-than-or-equal-to the specified number of pixels. classesare instantiable objects whose own prototype is not Objecte.g., Array is a native non-generic object type. Possible reasons include: no valid sources are registered, no sources are currently loaded, an error has occurred. In Harlowe, the same operation will yield an error: You must convert the values to the same type in Harlowe. For example: Determines whether the output of the Wikifier is post-processed into more sane markupi.e., where appropriate, it tries to transition the plethora of elements into
elements. The player will not be prompted and all unsaved state will be lost. Paste in the Base64-encoded media source as the passage's content. See the .includes() method for its replacement. Deprecated: May be called with, optional, link text or with a link or image markup. 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. The seed is automatically included within saves and sessions, so this is not especially useful outside of debugging purposes. But there were some issues which i could not really reproduce and I think they were caused by the iframe API. Unfortunately, this means that the two objects are incompatible. Returns whether the slot saves are available and ready. You can see this effect by changing data outside the state. Note: You may have Warning: Returns whether any of the macro's ancestors passed the test implemented by the given filter function. Adds a playlist with the given list ID. Due to various limitations in its design, if you're using Twine2 as your IDE/compiler, then it is strongly recommended that you do not create more than a few media passages and definitely do not use large sources. It is further strongly suggested that you provide that same custom user namespace when removing them. See the Save API docs for more information. Returns whether the track is currently unavailable for playback. Note: What you're doing is setting _text to the string "_TextNew", not the value of _TextNew. Outputs the contents of the passage with the given name, optionally wrapping it within an HTML element. So thank you for taking the time to help beginners get the hang of both Sugarcube and Twee. 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. 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). Local event triggered on the typing wrapper when the typing of a section starts. All changes within this version are elective changes that you may address at your leisure. See the Setting API docs for more information. Probably most useful when paired with <>. Note: See the HTML and CSS docs for more information. See the :passageinit event for its replacement. Additionally, macros in SugarCube do not return values, so macros cannot be used as arguments to other macros. They are defined via the Template API. Warning: For example, a common use of <> is to perform various actions before forwarding the player to another passage. Arithmetic: The expression yields a number valuee.g.. Otherwise ping me on Twitter or something. When used to set the loop state, returns a reference to the current AudioTrack instance for chaining. Returns a reference to the UIBar object for chaining. 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. Gets or sets the playlist's randomly shuffled playback state (default: false). Unsets story $variables and temporary _variables. Loading is done asynchronously at run time, so if the stylesheet must be available within a tight time frame, then you should use the Promise returned by the function to ensure that the stylesheet is loaded before it is needed. Warning: Because the custom style markup uses the same tokens to begin and end the markup, it cannot be nested within itself. Adds an audio group with the given group ID. A fullscreen options object should have some of the following properties: Note: Generally, only really useful for formatting blocks of macros for ease of use/readability, while ensuring that no output is generated, from spacing or whatnot. Roughly equivalent to the :passagestart event. Warning: For standard browser/DOM events, see the Event reference @MDN.
