Hi,

I started creating dialogues like
Ch01/Intro01/Scn1
Ch01/Intro01/Scn2
Ch02/Intro01/Scn1
... (so on)

However, as the story changes, I had to add some dialogue ID that are no longer alphabetically in order.
Once I do "sort by name", they are not in the game's chronological order any more.

That is fine for gameplay but when it comes to an export for localization and voice script, they are exported in alphabtical order which is no longer game's chronological order.
I tried to manually change via Microsoft Excel program by opening that CSV but it is becoming a massive work. (script is about 749 pages of A4).

Question is:
1) Is there any way to re-order the dialogue order manually in Dialogue System UI window (in unity) like we re-order the list in Unity's inspector if that makes sense?
OR
2) Is there a way to fetch a list of dialogue ID as CSV or something that I want it to export in that order? (such as fetching a CSV with dialogue ID in order(separated with comma Dialogue IDs) that Dialogue System UI will use to export localization CSV or the voice script etc?

I really need help!

Thank you,
J

Hi,

Yes. In the Dialogue Editor window's Conversations section, select Menu > Outline mode. In Outline mode, conversations are shown in a reorderable list that you can move around. You can also tick the checkboxes next to multiple conversations to move several conversations at the same time.

Thank you! this is exactly what I needed. as I have quite a lot of dialogue IDs, system seems to lag a lot when I drag the ID around. Is there anything I can do to at least temporarily make it faster/smooth?

Actually, nevermind, it didnt took that long as checkbox was helpful and not im all set for voice actors
