[Monarch] Splash screen only runs the first transition, how do I continue it?

Questions

So this is probably a really easy question, but I’m completely stumped.

I’m using Monarch to handle switching screens, and currently just have one splash screen with the transitions from the documentation:

self.transition = transitions.create(gui.get_node("root"))
.show_in(transitions.slide_in_right, gui.EASING_OUTQUAD, 0.6, 0)
.show_out(transitions.slide_out_left, gui.EASING_INQUAD, 0.6, 0)
.back_in(transitions.slide_in_left, gui.EASING_OUTQUAD, 0.6, 0)
.back_out(transitions.slide_out_right, gui.EASING_INQUAD, 0.6, 0)

When I run the game, this only shows the first sliding_in transition. If I understood the documentation correctly, I’m supposed to send a monarch.TRANSITION_DONE message back to the sender. How do I do that?

In my on_message function, I’ve tried a bunch of variations of “msg.post(sender, monarch.TRANSITION.DONE);” but they either error out or do nothing. The sender is “splash:/go#splash” and I’ve tried sending it there too with the same success along with hashing the transition.done message.

Any ideas?

If you use the predefined transitions there is no need to send a TRANSITION_DONE message. It is handled for you.

Ah ok, thanks Britzl. I’m going to see if I can get it working then.
