Thanks for all the help. After running the two db's in the unique id tool things are working well. I'm going to look into upgrading the version to set baseID still, because I'd like having that level of control going forward.

Hmm ok that sounds like how I'd expect it to work. Weirdly, I cannot reproduce today what I saw yesterday, now after I switch scenes the conversation doesn't run. All I know is that I have the extra database component with "Once" checked, in my 2nd scene, and that component disappears at r...

Hey, I'm playing with the structure for my game and I was hoping to use ExtraDatabase component for certain things. Such as, controlling an entire minigame in dialogue. This one complex conversation has lots of variables, but they only matter from the beginning to end of the 'conversation' (which en...

Mostly as an interchange format so we can have large numbers of conversations sketched out, give them to a writer, and they can fill in the blanks, so to speak. We want a format that we can easily give to a writer without requiring them to install unity or other tools.

Hi, I noticed a strange issue and spent some time investigating, but I've hit a wall. So I export my db in csv format. Then I import that csv as a new db. Then, in my scene I simply swap the old db for the new one in my DialogueSystemController object. But all of the sudden, I saw weird camera issue...

No I was trying to avoid passing hard-coded strings around to prevent typos, so I set the DanceMove to type "Item" which let me pick "Dance1" in the dropdown. But it's displayed as "Dance1 [1]" so I guess the underlying data is the int 1. Wondering if there's any built-...

Thanks for the extra info, and I probably posted my edit just a minute too late to save your time, sorry about that! It definitely works for me as you're saying. If I could bother you for one last clarification, on the lua side of it again, I'm having trouble understanding how to access dialog datab...

Thanks again! The lua stuff is starting to make sense, but I'm still having a bit of trouble with the 2nd method, using OnConversationLine. I received the event, with a Subtitle object, and I tried to do custom text replacement on the subtitle.formattedText.text field. Stepping through the debugger ...

Thanks for the quick reply! Just one thing I'm still unsure about, apart from getting the name with [var=Conversant], how would I include dialogue text for the field "Custom Move", or other info? Is there a way to get arbitrary text from a function with lua somehow? Thanks again

Hi, I've been reading the docs as extensively as possible, but I'm stuck on what to do in a basic example of passing data between the player and some NPCs. Let me explain, since it's pretty basic, and please tell me if 1) I'm doing this correctly, 2) what I'm missing? The player is running around a ...
