Adding Incoming Calls

Example files to look at: tutorial_5_coffee.rpy

To trigger an incoming call, there is a specific naming convention for the label. If your chatroom is called

label my_chatroom:

then to trigger an incoming call, you must create a label called

label my_chatroom_incoming_ja:

where ja is the variable of the character who will call the player (See character_definitions.rpy) for a list of the existing characters).

Note that you can only have one incoming call after a chatroom, so if you define two labels like label my_chatroom_incoming_ja and label my_chatroom_incoming_ju, then only one of them will show up as an incoming call.

You can then use that label to write the phone call as outlined in Writing a Phone Call. After the player goes through that chatroom (or its corresponding VN section), they will receive a phone call from that character.
