#Game maker studio 2 dialogue system code#
Note that you do *not* require string_execute to do that, the game would simply use the string functions to check inside the brackets and do certain code actions depending on what's inside (and also it'd always remove whatever's in the brackets before displaying it on screen). that is more complicated to code, and i would only recommend it if your game has a much branching dialogue as a wrpg like fallout 3 or something, but it's what it'd do.
The game would check the lines of strings, and remove what's in the brackets, and only display that line of text if the player answered with yes (or no). "hmph, you don't like apples? well, i love them! " You could also write some kind of parser. It requires a lot of gui coding and such, but it's not like, mentally challenging or anything then change the dialogue based on that variable create a small choice box that lets the user select an option (e.g. It would probably require a significant amount of work to overhaul for GM Studio, but if anyone knows what I'm talking about I'd love to see a link to it. It'll require some more programming knowledge, but he outlines a slightly more flexible system for handling dialog.Ī few years back I used an example for a visual dialog editor made in GM, which exported text files to store all the choices and stuff, but for some reason I can't find it any more. If you're looking to include more text/options, read through the posts by HaRRiKiRi (especially this one). If I recall correctly, it will require a couple of changes to make it work with GM Studio, but I'd be happy to walk you through them if you're interested. If you don't plan on having huge amounts of text, the example in the very first post should be sufficient. I would recommend taking a look at this thread. You're right, there aren't any great examples that are compatible with GM Studio. I was actually looking into this a couple weeks ago. Thanks in advance! Any input is appreciated. Specifically, I'd love any recent Game Maker Studio tutorials you can point me to - in particular those that cover dialogue fairly well. I would love somebody to give me some advice here. I have found a few example projects as alternatives to an actual tutorial, but they suffer from the same problems, and I'm not experienced enough to understand what's going on in their complex blocks of GML. Other tutorials are for smaller projects, like scrolling space shooters, simple tower defense games, etc. I don't know what they do, and I'm still relatively new to GML so I am unable to work around it.

Mainly, I can't find any relevant Game Maker Studio tutorials most are older versions, which use a series of obsolete functions.

For the last week and a half, I've been searching 'the Google machine' for any modern tutorial to learn how to handle it. Hello all! I'm working in the latest version of Game Maker Studio, and I'm trying to do branching dialogue.
