Characters count in dialogue text entry ? - Display full dialogue in node ?

Post by Quentin Arragon »

Hello :),

First I would like to say that I find that "Dialogue System for Unity" is a really amazing tool ! (it is so, so, so useful)

But I don't believe those two things are possibles in the current version of the Dialogue System ? :

- Characters count in dialogue text entry
- Display full dialogues texts in nodes

I try to keep my dialogue entry in a certain limit of characters, and a character count would be very useful to do that

Thanks

This is a good idea. I'll add it to the next update.

This would make the nodes far too big. (Some other editors do this, and they become unusable with medium-to-large conversations.) However, if you mouse over a node, it will show the full text. To toggle this, select Menu > Show > Show Full Text On Hover.
