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. Click the Formats button in the right sidebar of Twine. Note: Using <> to automatically forward players from one passage to another with no input from them will both create junk moments within the story history and make it extremely difficult for players to navigate the history. See the Setting API docs for more information. Note: Sylen. Starts playback of the selected tracks and fades them from the specified volume level to 0 (silent) over the specified number of seconds. Sets story $variables and temporary _variables based on the given expression. Warning: Warning: Silently executes its contents when the incoming passage is done rendering and has been added to the page. Warning: The verbatim HTML markup disables processing of all markup contained withinboth SugarCube and HTMLpassing its contents directly into the output as HTML markup for the browser. Returns whether the full in-play history (past + future) is empty. Terminates the execution of the current iteration of the current <> and begins execution of the next iteration. The story menu only displays linksspecifically, anything that creates an anchor element (). The handlers is passed two parameters, the save object to be processed and save operation details object. Returns whether all of the given members were found within the array. Determines whether saving is allowed within the current context. I've done it like this: $z= [ [1,2,3], [1,2,1], [4,4,0]] and it doesn't generate an error. Allows the destination of passage navigation to be overridden. Determines whether the <> macro returns an error when the = assignment operator is used within its conditionale.g., <>. Returns whether fullscreen is both supported and enabled. Valid values are boolean true, which simply causes the autosave to be loaded, the string "prompt", which prompts the player via a dialog to load the autosave, or a function, which causes the autosave to be loaded if its return value is truthy. Gets or sets the playlist's volume level (default: 1). Closes the dialog. When using Twine1/Twee, it is strongly recommended that you use only a single stylesheet tagged passage. For game-oriented projects, as opposed to more story-oriented interactive fiction, a setting of 1 is strongly recommended. In Twine, you can combine the Set Macro with an If Macro to test is some condition is "true.". Audio lists (playlists) are useful for playing tracks in a sequencei.e., one after another. Note: Player settings object, set up by the author/developer. Harlowe is the default style for Twine 2.0 and uses a syntax that is different than Sugarcube. There are many ways to use and interact with variables. There's no way for the system to know ahead of time whether it's safe to re-execute a passage's contents. See the memorize() and recall() functions for its replacement. Arrays have many built-in methods and other features, and SugarCube adds many more. Warning: followed by the template namee.g., ?yoloand are set up as functions-that-return-strings, strings, or arrays of eitherfrom which a random member is selected whenever the template is processed. Sets the story's display title in the browser's titlebar and the UI bar (element ID: story-title). Subtracts the value on the right-hand side of the operator from the current value on the left-hand side and assigns the result to the left-hand side. The template markup begins with a question mark (?) Displays the loading screen, if necessary. Note: 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. Note: All created passage elements will be children of this element. Save objects have some of the following properties: The state object has the following properties: Each moment object has the following properties: Deletes all slot saves and the autosave, if it's enabled. This method has been deprecated and should no longer be used. 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. Returns whether any of the target WAI-ARIA-compatible clickable element(s) are disabled. Gets or sets the master volume level (default: 1). Returns the AudioTrack instance with the given track ID, or null on failure. Generates no output. Shorthand for jQuery's .on() method applied to each of the audio elements. Appends one or more unique members to the end of the base array and returns its new length. Function behavior is immutable. Returns whether the dialog is currently open. Does not modify the original. Widget contents string (only inside block widgets). In that case, unless you need to dynamically determine the destination passage within the <> body, <> is unnecessary as <> already includes the ability to forward the player. SugarCube, like JavaScript, uses dynamic typing. In your menu passages, your long return links will simply reference the $return story variable, like so: Warning (Twine2): StoryMenu, etc. Returns the description of the passage, created from either an excerpt of the passage or the Config.passages.descriptions setting. Load and integrate external CSS stylesheets. Generates no output. ended and pause for information on somewhat similar native events. This is only really useful within pure JavaScript code, as within TwineScript you may simply access story variables natively. This method has been deprecated and should no longer be used. Macro API. 558 30K views 7 years ago Introduction to Twine In this new series, I cover the process of writing interactive fiction using Twine and the Sugarcube story format. The DOM macros do have a limitation that you should familiarize yourself with. Whenever your story is first started or, for any reason, restartede.g., the browser window/tab was refreshed/reloadedit undergoes its startup sequence. private browsing modes do interfere with this. You may forcibly enable test mode manually by setting the Config object's debug property to true. Indicates whether SugarCube is running in test mode, which enables debug views. Due to how the Twine2 automatic passage creation feature currently works, using the link markup form will cause a passage named $return to be created that will need to be deleted. Determines whether the link-visited class is added to internal passage links that go to previously visited passagesi.e., the passage already exists within the story history. 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. Updates all sections of the UI bar that are populated by special passagese.g., StoryBanner, StoryCaption, StoryMenu, etc. Essentially, a combination of <> and <>. There are several predefined group IDs (:all, :looped, :muted, :paused, :playing) and custom IDs may be defined via <>. For example, a common use of <> is to perform various actions before forwarding the player to another passage. Assignment: The expression causes an assignment to occure.g., A backquote is also known as a grave and is often paired with the tilde (. The discrete argument type of macros are also fairly straightforward, most of the time, as you simply supply the requisite arguments separated by whitespace, which may include variablesas SugarCube automatically yields their values to the macro. Note: Text Adventure Command Input macro for SugarCube 2 and Twine. Starts playback of the track and fades it between the specified starting and destination volume levels over the specified number of seconds. Warning: For example, if the name of SugarCube's directory is sugarcube, then the name of the .py file within must be sugarcube.py. Warning: Added to the active passage's container element, Added to the active passage's container element and. Renders and displays the passage referenced by the given title, optionally without adding a new moment to the history. Load and integrate external JavaScript scripts. 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. Story variables are a part of the story history and exist for the lifetime of a playthrough session. Note: classes) revival code and associated data within the revive wrapper, which should be returned from an object instance's .toJSON() method, so that the instance may be properly revived upon deserialization. Note: A version of the above code in SugarCube might look like this: Where Harlowe uses its hook syntax (square brackets) to associate a macro with its contents, SugarCube instead uses "container" macrosmacros that can have content associated with them have opening and closing tags. Returns the title of the passage associated with the active (present) moment. By default, it simply returns non-deterministic results from Math.random(), however, when the seedable PRNG has been enabled, via State.prng.init(), it returns deterministic results from the seeded PRNG instead. 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. Interactive macros are both asynchronous and require interaction from the player. See the <> macro for its replacement. Immediately forwards the player to the passage with the given name. classesare instantiable objects whose own prototype is not Objecte.g., Array is a native non-generic object type. Triggered at the end of passage navigation. As with all special tags, media passage tags are case sensitive, so their spelling and capitalization must be exactly as shown. Those that do not bundle SugarCube v2: Only the older Twine2.0 series. 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. SugarCube's DOM macros can target any HTML element on the page, not just hooks, and unlike their Harlowe equivalents, they cannot target arbitrary strings. Copy the following URL and paste it into the Add a New Format tab of the Formats menu, from Twine2's sidebar. The Macros API object has been renamed to Macro and several of its methods have also changed, for better consistency with the other APIs. Attaches single-use event handlers to the track. Passage render. Note: If the condition evaluates to false and an <> or <> exists, then other contents can be executed. Creates a text input box, used to modify the value of the variable with the given name, optionally forwarding the player to another passage. Happens before the modification of the state history. The Config object controls various aspects of SugarCube's behavior. Track event triggered when a fade starts. Returns whether enough data has been loaded to play the track through to the end without interruption. Returns whether none of the track's data has been loaded. See Also: There are cases, however, where things get a bit more complicated, namely: instances where you need to pass the name of a variable as an argument, rather than its value, and those where you want to pass the result of an expression as argument. Warning: Warning: May be called either with the passage name and link text as separate arguments, with a link markup, or with a image markup. Probably most useful when paired with <>. Harlowe refers to these as "revision macros". To update the value associated with a key, simply set it again. A data type refers to the "type" of data a variable is holding, such as a number, a string, an array, or anything else. Thus, you should only use plain HTML markup within the verbatim markupmeaning using none of SugarCube's special HTML attributes or directives. Creates a link that undoes past moments within the story history. Returns the number of currently registered on-load handlers. When used to set the loop state, returns a reference to the current AudioTrack instance for chaining. When used to set the mute state, returns a reference to the current AudioList instance for chaining. SugarCube v2.36. Warning: To actually affect multiple tracks and/or groups, see the SimpleAudio.select() method. with 2.0. Note: This can be thought of as a special, temporary saved story, which is automatically deleted after the player's current browsing session ends. Additionally, SugarCube's link macro accepts a passage argument, that, if included, turns any <> into something similar to Harlowe's (link-goto:) macro. Note: An array is a container that holds things. Normally, those aren't issues as you should not need to use the result of an expression as an argument terribly often. Moves forward one moment within the full history (past + future), if possible, activating and showing the moment moved to. Engine API. It has always been required that the call happen during story initialization, the only change is the throwing of the error. And feedback from the folks over at the Twine Games Discord Server. Configurable, see Config.passages.start for more information. The pill container contains pills for each day of the week. Additionally, macros in SugarCube do not return values, so macros cannot be used as arguments to other macros. Navigating back to a previous passage, for whatever reason, can be problematic. This is only really useful when you want to invoke a macro for its side-effects and aren't interested in its output. For example: While every valid expressioneven those you might not expectyields a value, there are essentially two types of expressions: those with side effects and those without. Note: When used to set the mute state, returns a reference to the current AudioTrack instance for chaining. NOTE: This should not be confused with story variables, which start with a $e.g., $foo. Roughly equivalent to the :passagerender event. Attaches event handlers to the track. Returns whether the given member was found within the array, starting the search at position. If you want to play tracks in a sequence, then you want a playlist instead. If its return value is falsy, the override is cancelled and navigation to the original destination continues unperturbed. Begins playback of the selected tracks or, failing that, sets the tracks to begin playback as soon as the player has interacted with the document. Returns whether any valid sources were registered. Note: For example: A better solution, however, would be to use a backquote1 (`) expression, which is really just a special form of quoting available in macro arguments that causes the contents of the backquotes to be evaluated and then yields the result as a singular argument. Only deletes the groups themselves, does not affect their component tracks. May be called with, optional, link text or with a link or image markup. SugarCube does not support the Twine1.4+ vanilla story formats' tagged stylesheets. Note: In test mode, SugarCube will wrap all macros, and some non-macro markupe.g., link & image markupwithin additional HTML elements, called "debug views" ("views" for short). Adds an audio track with the given track ID. Warning: Note: It is not a mechanism for moving data between stories. See Passage API for more information. Harlowe's implementation of data types differs significantly from SugarCube's. Intended to allow authors to easily wrap their custom object types (a.k.a. In mobile browsers and, more recently, most desktop browsers, playback must be initiated by the playergenerally via click/touch. If you should chose to use an explicit seed, however, it is strongly recommended that you also enable additional entropy, otherwise all playthroughs for all players will be exactly the same. See: Deprecated: Warning: Outputs a string representation of the result of the given expression. Before beginning, make sure that your Twine game is set up for the SugarCube format. Note: Triggered after the displayi.e., outputof the incoming passage. Global event triggered once just before the dismissal of the loading screen at startup. Manages the Settings dialog and settings object. Removes and returns a random member from the base array. See UI API for more information. blazing fast internet with unlimited dataespecially true for mobile users. Returns a reference to the Dialog object for chaining. Template API. Creates a number input box, used to modify the value of the variable with the given name, optionally forwarding the player to another passage. Global event triggered once just before the page is reloaded when Engine.restart() is called. Repeatedly executes its contents. Note: This method has been deprecated and should no longer be used. See Dialog API for more information. Note: Causes leading/trailing newlines to be removed and all remaining sequences of newlines to be replaced with single spaces before the passage is rendered. Note: Twine1/Twee: Registers the passage as JavaScript code, which is executed during startup. Passing the name of a variable as an argument is problematic because variable substitution occurs automatically in SugarCube macros. Donate Release Notes for v2 SugarCube v2.36.1 ( 2021-12-21) Fixed an issue with the build system that was producing subtly broken builds. This video covers how to create the "Space Exploration" example in SugarCube 2.0.Harlowe: https://youtu.be/DvOPqJzXWgoSnowman: https://youtu.be/_G7tCGi8sLsPr. When the story is restarted by SugarCube rather than refreshed via the browser, the playthrough session, if any, is not loaded. Deprecated: See the .includes() method for its replacement. This is an estimate calculated by the browser based upon the currently downloaded data and the download rate. Note: Starts playback of the selected tracks and fades them from the specified volume level to 1 (loudest) over the specified number of seconds. Does not modify the original. Returns an AudioRunner instance for the tracks matching the given selector. Happens after the displayi.e., outputof the incoming passage. Return the named macro definition, or null on failure. Sets the maximum number of iterations allowed before the <> macro conditional forms are terminated with an error. To ensure backwards compatibility of existing strings objects, if one exists within a project's scripts, the older object is mapped to the new l10nStrings object. The audio subsystem is based upon the HTML Media Elements APIs and comes with some built-in limitations: Pauses playback of all currently registered tracks and, if they're not already in the process of loading, force them to drop any existing data and begin loading. Stops playback of all currently registered tracks. ---- Like what. Its contents are treated as raw HTML markupi.e., none of SugarCube's special HTML processing is performed. Returns whether the named template exists. SugarCube requires authors to define and work with these data types using the standard JavaScript methods rather than providing macros for them. See <> for more information. See the HTML and CSS docs for more information. Then close the dialog box. The equivalent SugarCube code to achieve a similar result would be: Note: If your content consists of DOM nodes, you'll need to use the Dialog.append() method instead. In general, look to the .random() method instead. To affect multiple tracks and/or groups at once, see the SimpleAudio.select() method. Follow these instructions to install a local copy of SugarCube v2: If you followed the steps correctly, within Twine1/Twee's targets directory you should now have a sugarcube-2 directory, which contains several filese.g., header.html, sugarcube-2.py, etc. predisplay tasks have been deprecated and should no longer be used. 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. 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. Zorkish Sugarcube 6. classes) guide for more information. Begins playback of the playlist or, failing that, sets the playlist to begin playback as soon as the player has interacted with the document. Note: Use of this macro is only necessary when you need to localize a variable's value for use with an asynchronous macroi.e., a macro whose contents are executed at some later time, rather than when it's invoked; e.g., interactive macros, <>, <>. See the Test Mode guide for more information. Executes its contents and prepends the output to the contents of the selected element(s). The history allows players to navigate through these moments. 3 4 4 comments Best Add a Comment ChapelR 4 yr. ago The line continuation markup performs a similar function, though in a slightly different way. SugarCube Snowman Twine 2 Examples Twine 2 Examples . Does not modify the original. Creates a list of single-use passage links. See the :passagedisplay event for its replacement.
