Best way to "page" dialogue

Post by VoodooDetective »

Is the best way to page dialogue to create multiple nodes?

EX:
[auto][panel=0]Some text.
[auto][panel=0]I want broken up.
[auto][panel=0]"Maybe the character is recalling something someone else said"

Hi,

I'm not sure I follow. But if you want to break up a node that has a lot of text, you can insert pipe characters: |

Then select Menu > Split Pipes Into Nodes

Ah I noticed that in the documentation. I think that answers my question. If I want text to be split up and appear over different dialogue boxes, then I just need to create more nodes. Thanks for the help!
