RenPy Drag and Drop drag_offscreen issue

[swimsoot]

Hey good people,
I'm trying to create a simple draggable screen in which you can pull a shirt off a character. I want it full screen so that you can only move the shirt vertically and you can pull it offscreen.
My issue is that every time I set drag_offscreen to "vertical", it still lets me drag off screen everywhere. I've also tried setting minimums and maximums and I get the same result. If I set drag_offscreen to False, indeed I can't drag off screen, so I have no idea why the "vertical" setting isn't working.

screen topdown():
    image "body"
    draggroup:
        drag:
            drag_name "blouse"
            xpos 0.0 ypos 0.0
            draggable True
            child "shirt_and_hands"
            selected_hover_child "shirt_and_hands_pull"
            drag_handle (0,0, 1.0, 1.0)
            drag_offscreen "vertical"
            dragged drag_placed

        drag:
            drag_name "blouse target"
            child "dropzone"
            draggable False
            droppable True

I've also tried with different-size sprites and the results are the same.

Thoughts?

Hmm, because you're using a version of Ren'Py prior to 7.6.0/8.1.0

EEK! 7.5.2
So now that we know I have had this sad failure...
Can I upgrade to latest version if I have a massive 2GB game that I've been updating for like 3 years? Or will the whole thing turn upside down?

As long as you stay on the 7.x branch, you can upgrade without problems. Ren'Py is really strong when it come to compatibility.
There's screen statements depreciated since more than 10 years that are still fully working with the last version. So, you'll not face issues by passing from your 7.5.2 to the 7.7.1 (that will apparently be the last in the 7.x branch).

You're my new favorite person! Thanks

Super quick question:
I backed everything up, switched to 7.7.1 and had to switch editors from Atom to VsCode
All is working fine, except...
The game can no longer find any of my .ogv movie files (they're all pretty short, but I use them for in backgrounds)
Does 7.7.1 not recognize .ogv anymore?
Any thoughts?
THANKS!
