Hi Tony,

Working on the integration of Dialogue System, Quest System and USurvival. Gotta say, for such a powerful operation you've made it pretty painless.

This has probably been discussed before and there's probably a good reason it's not already included but what are the chances of having the LUA generator in Dialogue System display the LUA functions added through the Quest Machine and Dialogue System integration?

Thanks again,
Nathan

It's possible. Halfway possible is easier, where you could choose a list of functions from the dropdown, but you'd have to type in the parameters. I'm considering this for a future Dialogue System update.

That would be totally fine, kind of like the new Sequencer drop down menu. I just need prompts (plus it would help with all my spleling errors)

A few more things if you don't mind. I'm trying to figure out how to manage conditions.

In the DS Conditions panel should "GetQuestNodeState(FindTheRiver,Return) = "active"" work if there is a node called "Return" in the Quest "FindTheRiver"? or am i I doing this wrong? It doesn't seem to be working

Thanks
Nathan

Hi Nathan,

Try this:
Note the quotes. For Lua, they're required. Also, the double equals sign (==) tells Lua to check if the left and right sides are equal. A single equals sign attempts to assign the right value to the left, as in Variable["x"] = 3, which would try to assign the value of 3 to the variable "x".

Side note: For other readers of this thread who are using regular Dialogue System quests and not Quest Machine, it would be more like:
This section contains a short reference table with examples for regular Dialogue System quests.

Awesome. Thanks Tony

Glad to help!

Hey, Tony


Edit: I think I get it.

When the node "Greet" is changed to "success" it completed the quest by continuing along to success.

Sorry, one more question.

In the demo scene for DS and QM how is the Harvest Carrot quest being set to success? I can only see the node states being set in the Dialogue System editor

Nathan

When the Talk To Villager node is set to successful, the next linked node (Success) automatically becomes active. When active, Success nodes automatically set themselves to successful and set the entire quest to successful.

Thanks Tony,

I think I realised this when you were writing that.

Sorry for bothering you.

Thank you,
Nathan

No worries! Glad to try to help, even if you beat me to the answer.
