⚄︎ Perchance

This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.

Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)

This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

See this post for the Complete Guide to Posting Here on the Community!

Rules

1. Please follow the Lemmy.World instance rules.

2. Be kind and friendly.

  • Please be kind to others on this community (and also in general), and remember that for many people Perchance is their first experience with coding. We have members for whom English is not their first language, so please be take that into account too :)

3. Be thankful to those who try to help you.

  • If you ask a question and someone has made a effort to help you out, please remember to be thankful! Even if they don't manage to help you solve your problem - remember that they're spending time out of their day to try to help a stranger :)

4. Only post about stuff related to perchance.

  • Please only post about perchance related stuff like generators on it, bugs, and the site.

5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.

  • We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (text-to-image-plugin and ai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?"
  • See Perchance AI FAQ for FAQ about the AI tools.
  • You can ask for help with prompting at the 'sister' community Casual Perchance, which is for more casual discussions.
  • We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.

6. Search through the Community Before Posting.

  • Please Search through the Community Posts here (and on Reddit) before posting to see if what you will post has similar post/already been posted.

I'm an autistic girl, who is very fascinated with choose-your-own-adventures and other text adventures.

I tried with AI-RPG (https://perchance.org/ai-rpg), but I just couldn't figure out the code how to modify it, so that:

  • There's no prompt for a custom RPG at the start, the story and the instructions to the AI are predefined and not visible to the player
  • There are no buttons for writing style, difficulty mode, background music, or image, no saving or loading of games.

I would just like to have a clean two dialog box thingy: the story and your action to it, with the continue button.

P.S. If you could please help me with this, you'd be rewarded,in time, with a text adventure set in a fictional world resembling 1842 American frontiers. A strange meteorite striking an arctic country, generating distortions of space and time, as well as strange artifacts which trigger a sort of gold rush to get to these mysterious things. You've got Amazonian female tribes riding mountain goats, too. Also, everything about the time period's been researched with autistic meticulousness.

Here's a quick template made from chopping out various parts of the ai-rpg generator: https://perchance.org/ai-rpg-template Hopefully that sets you on the right path. If there are some other minor things you want to customize, you might be able to paste the code to an AI with long context like Gemini or ChatGPT and ask "What should I add or edit to do [thing]".
