The menu in the upper right provides these options:

Menu Item Description

All Fields

The All Fields foldout lets you view and edit all of the location's fields.

  • To add a new field, click the + on the same line as the All Fields foldout.
  • Use Copy and Paste to copy and paste the field values from another location. This is useful for quickly duplicating a location that you can then customize.
  • If you've added new location fields on the Dialogue Editor Templates Tab, click Template to add them to an existing location.

Sync from DB

You can also sync locations from a different dialogue database. To set this up, select Menu > Sync from DB. This will add a Sync From field to the locations tab.

Assign the source database that contains the locations to the Sync From field. Whenever you open this database in the Dialogue Editor, it will automatically populate the location list with the locations in the source database. To manually sync the location list from the source database, click Sync Now.

You can add more locations, but keep in mind that locations with the same ID as locations in the source database will be overwritten.
