Hello, I am new to this dialogue system, I use this to create VN style conversation, and I found out the all the inputs are using Unity's Input Manager.

I do not want the dialogue system read the input from the Unity's Input Manager (such as continue button is read Unity's Submit button), can I customize the input by myself without crash with the Input Manager? (such as using R button to play continue button without edit the Input Manager)

I got read the documention, and there got mention Rewired can make this, so I get and import the Rewired and its 3rd party support, but I have no idea how to use it. Can you help me please

Currently I setup like this, please help

Hello,

Thanks for using the Dialogue System!

You're almost there.

For the continue button:

1. Inspect the continue button. You may need to add an instance to your Dialogue Manager's Canvas. If you do this, assign the instance to the Dialogue Manager's Dialogue UI field.

2. Add a UI Button Key Trigger component. In the Button field, enter "Continue".

3. Open the Rewired Input Manager. Add an action named "Continue". In keyboard mapping, map the "Continue" action to the R key.


If you want to navigate response menus using Rewired -- for example, up/down arrow keys -- set up a Rewired Standard Input Module. You may also want to tick the Dialogue Manager > Input Device Manager's Always Auto Focus checkbox. The response menus use standard Unity UI, which means they will automatically work with a Rewired Standard Input Module if you set it up.

Thanks for fast reply. I am sorry for keep asking for help, I am quite new with unity.

Yeah! I can using Rewired to navigate my response menus already. But the response menus will also read the input from Unity's Input Manager at the same time. I actually don't want response menus read the input from Unity's Input Manager there, is there anyway to do this?

Thank you.

Hi,

The Dialogue Manager's Dialogue UI field points to the prefab "VN Template Standard Dialogue UI". Since it's a prefab, the Dialogue System instantiates it at runtime. This makes it hard to edit at design time. Try this:

- Add an instance of the "VN Template Standard Dialogue UI" to the Dialogue Manager's Canvas, and assign it to the Dialogue UI field:



- Expand the dialogue UI until you can inspect the Continue Button. Add a UI Button Key Trigger:

If you set up a Rewired Standard Input Module as described in the link above, it will use Rewired, not Unity's Input Manager.

Yeah!!! I solved the problem already, thank a lot!!!

Glad to help!

Hi, I have a small question want to ask.

I just noticed a small error. I can already use Rewired to navigate the response menu with up+down/button, but when the conversation have multiple choice(1. Hello, 2. Hi, 3. How are you), I select the 2nd or 3rd choice but dialogue system always get the 1st one. (Only keyboard input got this error, mouse input no problem)

Thank you.

Hello,

Remove the UI Button Key Trigger component from your response button. Instead, the Rewired Standard Input Module will use the Submit Button to select response buttons.

Thanks a lot! Please forgive my stupid question.

There are no stupid questions. Just us game developers who want to make good games.
