Can I create many dialog boxes at once?
(It is inconvenient to create one each for long conversations.)

If they're all spoken by the same actor, you can create one node and put pipe characters ( | ) into the Dialogue Text. For example:
  • Dialogue Text: "One|Two|Three"
Then select Menu > Split Pipes Into Nodes, and then right-click and select Arrange Nodes:
  • Dialogue Text: "One"
    • Dialogue Text: "Two"
      • Dialogue Text: "Three"
If they're spoken by different actors, you can use the technique above and then manually assign the actors to each node, or you can write your conversation in CSV and import it. But in this case you'll need to get the IDs and OutgoingLinks correct in the CSV file.
