Hi,
I would like to record some statistics about the responses that the player selects. I was wondering what the best way might be to do this.

Here is my logic:

1. Before the game scene starts, search all the conversations in the given database for all questions that the player will be asked throughout the game. I need to know how many total questions there are so I can calculate percentages.

2. Not all player questions will be scorable, so I need to find a way to tag a question/response that needs to be included in the statistics.

3. As the player gives a response, record that data (probably to a scriptable object).

The main issue is that I do not know how to search through conversations to check for scorable questions.

Let's assume you're adding a custom Boolean field named "Scorable" to the response dialogue entries.

Then you can count them up and get a list like this (e.g., in a Start() method or something like that):

Code: Select all

List<DialogueEntry> scorableResponses = new List<DialogueEntry>();
int numScorable = 0;
foreach (Conversation conversation in DialogueManager.masterDatabase.conversations)
{
    foreach (DialogueEntry entry in conversation.dialogueEntries)
    {
        if (Field.LookupBool(entry.fields, "Scorable"))
        {
            scorableResponses.Add(entry);
            numScorable++;
        }
    }
}
