Thanks for your observations. The problem it it's related to Python vs renpy screen langugage conflict. Like whenever I update any value using build in renpy syntax it's ok. But when I update it with pyton funcion it fails to update. Even if I reset the screen etc. Still investigating it xD
Booo!
Fair enough, thought I had hit on something, but unfortunately it wasn't quite correct. Hope you can get that figured out! I'm sure it's blocking off a lot of time figuring this thing out that you could be using to develop things you actually want to develop, and that kind of a roadblock really sucks. =(
