@@seethan9109 your text bubble is visible from the start? If so, notice we create these objects on a separate layout called Object Database (1:06), and only spawn them when the function is called. They should not exist on any of your levels in the editor. You may consider adding a separate layout to store items like this, otherwise move them offscreen. Edit: if nothing shows up ever, you may need to right click the bottom of your event sheet and "include eventsheet" on the event sheet being used for that layout. Include the dialogue event sheet.

While this is a great video and it worked perfectly, what if I want to bring up the dialogue again after the box disappears. You mentioned in the video that you would remove the "set id to -1" to repeat the dialogue. Which I tried that, but the last line of text just repeats until I make the character step away from the dialogue area, and even then, it would repeat a couple of times until it's gone. That's also another thing, when the dialogue box does show up, how do I make the player not able to move when it shows up until it disappears again?
@deltastarstudios2809 Жыл бұрын
To disable movement, set player sprite movement (platform/8 direction, etc...) to disabled during dialogue box and then re-enable it afterward. (Platform > set enabled) For repeating text, like a sign, after triggering the dialogue, the first action ahould set the trigger to -1, so it can't be retriggered. Then at the end of dialogue event, add a small wait, like 1 second, then set the trigger back to its original setting so it can be used again. So the event would ready 1. Set Id to -1 2. Disable movement 3. Call dialogue 4. Wait for signal 5. Destroy dialogue 6. Re-enable movement 7. Wait 1 second 8. Set trigger id back to whatever it was.

@@deltastarstudios2809 I tried that, but it didn't work. But luckily, I found a different way to go about it. I had a layer dedicated to the HUD or Portraits, then place the Portrait sprites in that layer and where I want them to appear. Set the sprite to invisible. Then when the dialogue box is being called, I set it to visible. Then I can change the character, or "animations" accordingly. Thank you again!

How do you know the location to put the dialogue box?
@tk22345 Жыл бұрын
It's based on where on your HUD layer you want it to appear. 3:07 is how the coordinates are derived for this example :) if you place your text box on your hud layer where you want it to display, you can copy those coordinates. At 3:58 you can see how it's positioned relative to the viewport (the dashed line rectangle)

Great video! Everything works as intended. However when I add new functions to the dialogue like you do at the very end, the system breaks a bit. Everything works fine with as many functions as I need at first until I get to the very end of them. It seems like the destroyDialogue isn't getting called for some reason in that scenario. Instead the final dialogue gets repeated over and over. It's called fine with just a single function.
@deltastarstudios280910 ай бұрын
Hi Zach, There should only be one function that is used to create dialogue. Its parameter is used to display different text :) The destroy dialogue should be called at the end of your cutscene after the final wait for signal. It's interesting the final dialogue is repeated. Feel free to email me your project file and I can take a look :)

Please I want to ask you a question, can I merge two projects into one project on constuct 3 ?
@deltastarstudios2809 Жыл бұрын
It is possible. You'll need to: 1. Open both projects in the same editor 2. Rename any objects and variables that share a common name in both projects (like if both have a sprite called Sprite1) so there isn't a conflict. 3. Copy and paste layouts first 4. Copy and paste event sheets last It takes some trial and error but that's the main method. Pay attention to any errors you get and address them. Like it may say a certain object (like audio) needs to be added back into the project before the copy/paste will work.
