TopDown Engine support

Hi all

I'm about to hit the button and buy Quest Machine and Dialogue to use in my TopDown Engine based game.

I just wanted to make sure that Quest Machine supports TD. I can see that it's listed in the dialogue asset, but not specifically in the quest asset.

Does anyone know? Or is it something that will generically work with most things via the inspector?

Olly

Hi,

The Dialogue System (DS) has full, dedicated integration with TDE.

Quest Machine (QM) doesn't have a dedicated integration package, but it works with it generically as well as through the common save system that's shared between DS and QM, which also ties into TDE's save system if you want to use that. QM does have Inventory Engine integration. So you can write the full range of quests using TDE + DS + QM, including kill quests, item quests, exploration quests, conversation quests, etc. If there's anything you find you can't do with TDE in QM, you can always rely on QM's DS integration to get it done through DS.
