Version 1.8.0 is now available on the Pixel Crushers customer download site. If you need access, please PM me your Unity Asset Store invoice number. It should be available on the Asset Store in a few days.

This is the definitive 1.x release of the Dialogue System. The next major release will be version 2.0. It will continue to be a free update. Version 2.0 will streamline the API and setup, making things simpler and even more efficient, and will come with a completely new set of updated video tutorials. There will be some API changes, but for the most part everything should continue to work in your existing projects without requiring any major changes. The minimum Unity version will change from 4.6.5 to 5.3.6. You can track the progress of version 2.0 on Trello. Thank you to everyone who's supported the Dialogue System and helped make it what it is! I'm really excited to be implementing all your great feedback in version 2.0!

This means that if I load an old savegame, and there's not a saved value for one variable, it automatically gets the value that is listed in the Variables tab, right?

For example, a bool set to True would be True after loading that game, yes?

Yes, that's exactly right.
