Subtitling Guidelines (two lines of text per subtitle)

Post by dannyzebra »

When I start a conversation it can happen that a node goes over several sentences (4 / 5), but I would like to adapt the NPC and PC UI to follow the following rule.

* Maximum of 47 characters per line.
* Maximum of two lines of text per subtitle.
* Reading speeds should be maximum 250 words per minute for adult content.

The most important thing for me is the point with the number of two lines. Is there a way that I can avoid having to create new nodes for a monologue?

Thanks for any help!!!

Hi,

You can make a subclass of StandardUISubtitlePanel and override the SetContent() method to show the content according to those rules.
