Hi, I'm having a hard time finding information on how to use twine to renpy. So far I have achieved several "successes" by trial and error. I would really appreciate if there is any guide that can help me. Right now I'm trying to find out, if you can use accents in the text somehow, or define and use numeric variables. I have seen that <<set $variable=1>> or <<set $variable=$variable +1>>, doesn't work either, even if I define the variable in twine as <<set $variable to 1>>

Hi! Sorry to hear you've been having a hard time with the tool. Have you imported the "Demo.html" into Twine 2? Is there anything confusing about how it's set up? Or do you find the options in the tool the confusing part?
Secondly, I'm not able to repro an error when "<<set $variable to 1>>" is used. Do you have "Define variables" enabled under "Characters and variables" in the Twine to Ren'Py UI? If so and you're still seeing problems, if you're comfortable giving me the file or an isolated repro case, that'd help me in narrowing down what might be wrong! If you can export the Twine to file, get the incorrect .rpy output files, and a screenshot of your tool settings before you hit run, you can send them to jbtuason at gmail dot com, and I'll take a look.
Thank you very much for your answer, I think I have managed to understand how I should do twinw to be able to use it in renpy, except for the numerical variables, which I cannot find the way to perform calculations with them, such as sum of variables. I am sending you the file by mail, but I wanted to thank you openly for your quick response, and this tool that will help me a lot to try to create my visual novel in an orderly manner.
