Linking back to the last conversation entry?
Posted: Thu Sep 20, 2018 7:58 pm
Hey everyone, just wanted to start off by saying I’m really enjoying this plugin and it’s helping me build out the text adventure game I’ve always wanted to create.
At the moment I’m trying to build out an item inventory system using only text dialogues like the old Hideo Kojima game, Snatcher.
The player would be able to access this items menu from the main choice dialogue at any point.
So my idea was to build out a conversation with every item dialogue possible and have response branches for those items that are controlled by variables that determine wether the item has been acquired yet.
I’ve been able to link to this item conversation easily from my various character dialogues, but I am stuck at the point of returning to the previous conversation and dialogue entry.
My goal is to have a simple “BACK” option in the inventory conversation that links to the last conversation ID and entry. I attempted to code a couple of Lua commands to run in the “BACK” entry’s sequence that would help me reference it, but had trouble passing the CurrentConversationState required variables.
I saw in this post that you’re planning on implementing some actions for these:

Was wondering if there was any current way to go about this?
Thanks again for all your work, this plugin rocks!
