Fira

Fira is the main backend and API code for the minigame in Unscripted, a visual novel about software development. Fira provides many facets of the minigame, including a public API that players can use to code solutions to the minigame puzzles, a configuration and data generator from level files, and a virtual machine that runs low-level code that the minigame processes (NadiaVM). Fira is named after Fira Sans, one of the game's characters.

Getting started

Fira comes pre-packaged in Unscripted but can be installed outside of the game to work better with IDEs and other Python tools such as Poetry.

Usage

For players installing this package to solve minigame puzzles, using the Fira package to access the API is relatively straightforward:

from uvn_fira.api import get_level_information, CSPlayer, CSWorld

gp, gw = get_level_information(0,
                               fn_path=renpy.config.savedir + "/minigame",
                               exists=renpy.loadable,
                               load=renpy.exports.file)

Documentation on the API is located inside of Unscripted by going to Help › Minigame or Settings › Minigame.

The documentation for the entire package is located at https://fira.marquiskurt.net, which is useful for developers that wish to make custom toolkits that connect to the minigame's virtual machine or for modders that wish to make custom minigame levels.
