UniStorm Setup

Follow these steps to set up the Dialogue System with UniStorm.

  • Import the package Third Party Support/UniStorm Support. This will unpack files into the folder Third Party Support/UniStorm Support.
  • Add a UniStorm Lua Bridge component to your Dialogue Manager.
    • To include UniStorm's time and weather in persistent data (such as saved games), tick the Save UniStorm State checkbox. (Only supported in Unity 5.0+)

Example Scene

The Example folder contains an example scene. If you talk to Private Hart, he will make comments about the time and weather.

The example scene is built for Unity 5+.

Lua Functions

Add a UniStorm Lua Bridge component to your Dialogue Manager GameObject using Component > Dialogue System > Third Party > UniStorm > UniStorm Lua Bridge.

This component adds the following Lua functions, which return numbers corresponding to the values documented on the UniStorm Wiki's Code References page: http://unistorm-weather-system.wikia.com/wiki/Code_References

The most common use for these functions is in the Conditions of dialogue entries and triggers.

GetMinuteCounter() Returns the current minutes
GetHourCounter() Returns the current hour
GetDayCounter() Returns the current day
GetMonthCounter() Returns the current month
GetYearCounter() Returns the current year
GetWeatherForecaster() Returns the current weather conditions value as defined in the table on the UniStorm Wiki
