Example Scene

The example scene demonstrates how to interact with an NPC and start a conversation using a Dialogue System Proximity Selector component. Alternatively, you could set up interaction using Motion Controller's interaction functionality.

Setup

To set up your scene:

  1. Import the package Third Party Support ► Motion Controller Support. This will unpack files into the folder Assets ► Pixel Crushers ► Dialogue System ► Third Party Support ► Motion Controller Support.
  2. Add a Dialogue Manager GameObject by adding the prefab in Prefabs.
    • Add a Dialogue System Ootii Bridge component. This component adds several useful Lua Functions.
  3. Inspect the Invector character.
    • Add a Dialogue System Motion Controller Bridge component. This component lets you control how the character behaves during conversations.
    • If you want to use the Dialogue System's interaction system, add a Selector or Proximity Selector.

Lua Functions

The Dialogue System Ootii Bridge component adds these Lua functions, which you can use in conversations and Dialogue System Triggers:
