The Dialogue System has built-in support for Timeline and Playables in Unity 2017+.
Timeline is designed to pair well with Cinemachine Support.
IL2CPP/UWP Note: Due to a bug in Unity 2017.3.0f3, Timeline support is not available in this version for IL2CPP builds. Timeline support for IL2CPP is available for Unity 2017.0 - 2017.2, 2017.4+, and 2018.
To play an example scene that uses Timeline, import the unitypackage Assets / Dialogue System / Examples / Cinemachine and Timeline. This will add an example scene in a subfolder named Cinemachine and Timeline Example.
The door near Sergeant Graves is interactable. It plays a simple Timeline when the player uses it. This Timeline animates some lights, shows an alert message, and makes Sergeant Graves bark.
The Dialogue System adds these playables to Timeline in the category PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem:
