Awesome. Thanks, Tony
And really, no rush on the BD integration update.
That's awesome about the Salsa integration! Just got Dissonance and am going to set up our PUN scene with players and npcs using Salsa 2. So much awesomeness!
Thanks again,
Nathan

The updated Behavior Designer integration is finally ready. You can download it from the
Extras page.
It adds these Lua functions:
- bdGetBoolGroup(gameObjectName, group, variableName)
- bdGetFloatGroup(gameObjectName, group, variableName)
- bdGetIntGroup(gameObjectName, group, variableName)
- bdGetStringGroup(gameObjectName, group, variableName)
- bdSetBoolGroup(gameObjectName, group, variableName, value)
- bdSetFloatGroup(gameObjectName, group, variableName, value)
- bdSetIntGroup(gameObjectName, group, variableName, value)
- bdSetStringGroup(gameObjectName, group, variableName, value)
Example:
Code: Select all
-- On behavior tree on "NPC A" with group ID 42, set BD int "Speed" to 7:
bdSetIntGroup("NPC A", 42, "Speed", 7)
And it adds an optional group parameter to the Behavior() sequencer command:
Behavior(subject, start|stop|pause|resume, [group])
- subject: The name of a GameObject containing a behavior tree, or speaker or listener. The behavior tree can be located on a child object.
- start|stop|pause|resume: Control action for the behavior tree.
- group: (Optional) Apply to behavior trees with a specific group ID. If omitted, apply to all behavior trees on subject.

Hey, Tony
Not to perster you, but I just noticed that the online documenation for the BD integration hasn't been updated.
It's not an issue for me because I know to look here, but for others using BD it might be useful. I think their extremely useful features
Thanks as always
Nathan

Hi Nathan,
Are you by any chance looking at the old version 1.x manual?
The current Behavior Designer integration documentation is here:

No problem. I really would like to redirect the 1.x pages to the current 2.x manual, but believe it or not some games are still using 1.x, mostly ones that have been released but are in support/maintenance mode.

That's fair enough. I should have know better than thinking you'd missed something

Hey, I actually have a question now, related to this integration.
Been a while since I used DS and am finally at the point of writing dialogue again. I'm using a Behaviour Designer node to trigger a conversation but for some reason it's not returning success when the conversation is completed. I've had this working before but am drawing a complete blank at the moment.
Can you think of why this would be?
Thanks
Nathan
