Hi,

Thanks for using the Dialogue System!

I'll assume your HoraeNpc script is on your NPC GameObject. Add these methods to the script:

Code: Select all

void OnEnable()
{
    // Make Test() available to Lua:
    Lua.RegisterFunction(nameof(Test), this, SymbolExtensions.GetMethodInfo(() => Test()));
}

void OnDisable()
{
    Lua.UnregisterFunction(nameof(Test));
}
Then you can use Test() in your dialogue entry node's Script field.

Happy to help!

Keep in mind that Lua functions are registered globally. If you register a function named Test() on an NPC named Horae, you shouldn't register a function Test() on another GameObject at the same time.
