Images in Choices

Hello everyone!

I’ve really been getting into images lately and I was wondering if it’s possible to put images in the actual choices themselves? I want to put little symbols after some choices to indicate, for example, that you would get +10 gold (with a little coin symbol instead of typing out gold).

Thanks for any help you can give!

Hey! ASCII was a good idea! there is a bunch of characters that could do a couple of nice effects. Dwarf Fortress don’t let me lie…

By the way I suspect his question was something like:

*choice
  #option 1 *img link
    *goto scene1
  #option 2 *img link
    *goto scene2

And nope. That’s not possible.

Hmm, cool, so are those all the symbols I can use in the text without resorting to image files? I can see a couple I could use (there are a few currency ones) so that’s a pretty good backup, thanks!

@Nahim_Kerman
Yeh, you phrased the question a lot better! A shame that’s not possible but the ASCII is a decent enough solution.

Thanks for the help guys!

I almost hesitate to mention it, but it just occurred to me that you can use emoji in options.

*fake_choice
	#❤️
	#👻
	#💩

This may not be a good idea.

Hi all, just wondering how people get images (like emojis) into choicescript? Or do they only work when on CSIDE?

I believe they’re unicode characters, can be copy-pasted from any unicode character list (or potentially inputted by keyboard if you know how, I’ve personally never managed to have Windows understand Unicode char numbers but I also have never super dug into it).

(Emojis seem to be in the block E000-F8F0, but my device can’t see most of the characters in that block, so I don’t know what all it entails and how many of them are emojis.)

That’s correct. The below is what I use.

I’m using an app that has a list of all unicode characters, but there are several on Internet as well.
