Hey folks! I wrote some code for my game to handle characters with dynamic or user-defined gender pronouns. The goal is to make it easy for writers to write for characters when the gender is not yet determined (ie, the player can choose their main character from m/f/nb options). https://github.com/zelgadis/fungus-gendered-terms The code specifies a number of "gendered terms", and then loads the correct terms for your character's pronoun into Fungus variables. All you have to do is: 1. Store your character's pronoun into a Fungus variable (ie mc_pronoun = "he") 2. Use the provided gendered term variables in the game's script (ie {$GT_his}) 3. When the game runs, the fungus variables will contain the correct value for your character's gender pronoun (ie {$GT_his} = "his", "hers", or "theirs"). Supported pronouns are he / she / they, and it's easy to add more. I've seen people asking about support for gender pronouns in the forums, so I figured I would clean up my work and share it! Hope it helps!
