API Reference
Script commands API reference. Use the side bar to quickly navigate between available commands.
Strikethrough indicates a nameless parameter, and bold stands for required parameter; other parameters should be considered optional. Consult naninovel scripts guide in case you have no idea what's this all about.
The following parameters are supported by all the script commands:
ID | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
if | String | A boolean script expression, controlling whether the command should execute. |
wait | Boolean | Whether the script player should wait for the async command to finish execution before executing the next one. Has no effect when the command is executed instantly. |
NOTE
This API reference is valid for Naninovel v1.11.
animate
Summary
Animate properties of the actors with the specified IDs via key frames. Key frames for the animated parameters are delimited with |
literals.
Remarks
Be aware, that this command searches for actors with the provided IDs over all the actor managers, and in case multiple actors with the same ID exist (eg, a character and a text printer), this will affect only the first found one.
When running the animate commands in parallel (wait
is set to false) the affected actors state can mutate unpredictably. This could cause unexpected results when rolling back or performing other commands that affect state of the actor. Make sure to reset affected properties of the animated actors (position, tint, appearance, etc) after the command finishes or use @animate CharacterId
(without any args) to stop the animation prematurely.
Parameters
ID | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
ActorIds | List<String> | IDs of the actors to animate. |
loop | Boolean | Whether to loop the animation; make sure to set wait to false when loop is enabled, otherwise script playback will loop indefinitely. |
appearance | String | Appearances to set for the animated actors. |
transition | String | Type of the transition effect to use when animating appearance change (crossfade is used by default). |
visibility | String | Visibility status to set for the animated actors. |

posZ | String | Position values over Z-axis (in world space) to set for the animated actors; while in ortho mode, can only be used for sorting. |
rotation | String | Rotation values (over Z-axis) to set for the animated actors. |
scale | String | Scale values (uniform) to set for the animated actors. |
tint | String | Tint colors to set for the animated actors. Strings that begin with # will be parsed as hexadecimal in the following way: #RGB (becomes RRGGBB), #RRGGBB , #RGBA (becomes RRGGBBAA), #RRGGBBAA ; when alpha is not specified will default to FF. Strings that do not begin with # will be parsed as literal colors, with the following supported: red, cyan, blue, darkblue, lightblue, purple, yellow, lime, fuchsia, white, silver, grey, black, orange, brown, maroon, green, olive, navy, teal, aqua, magenta. |

Parameters
ID | Type | Description |

Remarks
Backgrounds are handled a bit differently from characters to better accommodate traditional VN game flow. Most of the time you'll probably have a single background actor on scene, which will constantly transition to different appearances. To remove the hassle of repeating same actor ID in scripts, it's possible to provide only the background appearance and transition type (optional) as a nameless parameter assuming MainBackground

parameter.

gosub
Summary
Navigates naninovel script playback to the provided path and saves that path to global state; @return
commands use this info to redirect to command after the last invoked gosub command. Designed to serve as a function (subroutine) in a programming language, allowing to reuse a piece of naninovel script. Useful for invoking a repeating set of commands multiple times.
Remarks
It's possible to declare a gosub outside of the currently played script and use it from any other scripts; by default state reset won't happen when you're loading another script to play a gosub or returning back to prevent delays and loading screens. Be aware though, that all the resources referenced in gosub script will be held until the next state reset.
Parameters
ID | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
Path | Named<String> | Path to navigate into in the following format: ScriptName.LabelName . When label name is ommited, will play provided script from the start. When script name is ommited, will attempt to find a label in the currently played script. |
reset | List<String> | When specified, will reset the engine services state before loading a script (in case the path is leading to another script). Specify * to reset all the services, or specify service names to exclude from reset. By default, the state does not reset. |
Example
; Navigate the playback to the label `VictoryScene` in the currently played script,
; executes the commands and navigates back to the command after the `gosub`.
@gosub .VictoryScene
...
@stop
# VictoryScene
@back Victory
@sfx Fireworks
@bgm Fanfares
You are victorious!
@return
; Another example with some branching inside the subroutine.
@set time=10
; Here we get one result
@gosub .Room
...
@set time=3
; And here we get another
@gosub .Room
...
# Room
@print "It's too early, I should visit this place when it's dark." if:time<21&&time>6
@print "I can sense an ominous presence here!" if:time>21&&time<6
@return

@goto Script001
; Save as above, but start playing from the label `AfterStorm`.
@goto Script001.AfterStorm
; Navigates the playback to the label `Epilogue` in the currently played script.

. See @gosub
command summary for more info and usage examples.
Parameters
ID | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
reset | List<String> | When specified, will reset the engine services state before returning to the initial script from which the gosub was entered (in case it's not the currently played script). Specify * to reset all the services, or specify service names to exclude from reset. By default, the state does not reset. |
save
Summary
Automatically save the game to a quick save slot.
Example
@save
set
Summary
Assigns result of a script expression to a custom variable.
Remarks
Variable name should be alphanumeric (latin characters only) and can contain underscores, eg: name
, Char1Score
, my_score
; the names are case-insensitive, eg: myscore
is equal to MyScore
. If a variable with the provided name doesn't exist, it will be automatically created.
It's possible to define multiple set expressions in one line by separating them with ;
. The expressions will be executed in sequence by the order of declaratation.
Custom variables are stored in local scope by default. This means, that if you assign some variable in the course of gameplay and player starts a new game or loads another saved game slot, where that variable wasn't assigned — the value will be lost. If you wish to store the variable in global scope instead, prepend G_
or g_
to its name, eg: G_FinishedMainRoute
or g_total_score
.
In case variable name starts with T_
or t_
it's considered a reference to a value stored in 'Script' managed text document. Such variables can't be assiged and mostly used for referencing localizable text values.
You can get and set custom variables in C# scripts via CustomVariableManager
engine service.
Parameters
ID | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
Expression | String | Set expression. The expression should be in the following format: VariableName=ExpressionBody , where VariableName is the name of the custom variable to assign and ExpressionBody is a script expression, the result of which should be assigned to the variable. It's also possible to use increment and decrement unary operators, eg: @set foo++ , @set foo-- . |
Example
; Assign `foo` variable a `bar` string value
@set foo="bar"
; Assign `foo` variable a 1 number value
@set foo=1
; Assign `foo` variable a `true` boolean value
@set foo=true
; If `foo` is a number, add 0.5 to its value
@set foo=foo+0.5
; If `angle` is a number, assign its cosine to `result` variable
@set result=Cos(angle)
; Get a random integer between -100 and 100, then raise to power of 4 and assign to `result` variable
@set "result = Pow(Random(-100, 100), 4)"
; If `foo` is a number, add 1 to its value
@set foo++
; If `foo` is a number, subtract 1 from its value
@set foo--
; Assign `foo` variable value of the `bar` variable, which is `Hello World!`.
; Notice, that `bar` variable should actually exist, otherwise `bar` plain text value will be assigned instead.
@set bar="Hello World!"
@set foo=bar
; Defining multiple set expressions in one line (the result will be the same as above)
@set bar="Hello World!";foo=bar
; It's possible to inject variables to naninovel script command parameters
@set scale=0
# EnlargeLoop
@char Misaki.Default scale:{scale}
@set scale=scale+0.1
@goto .EnlargeLoop if:scale<1
