Loading Variable into Dialogue

Postby JasonMc » Mon Jul 26, 2010 4:55 am

I'm just wondering, would I be able to load a variable (such as the player's name) into a dialogue?

Sure, but I don't think it's doable with the Dialogue Wizard.

You can however script the dialogue, and then use a variant variable.

Check out these posts:

For scripting the dialogue

Example how to use the variant variable in the scripted dialogue (actual script from my game with the variable CharacterName):
Code: Select all
Text(1).caption= "Hey, good morning " + CharacterName +  "! Today we are going to test the XO-245." +vblf+ "I have prepared everything."


And Doggy has another script which is also suitable for character avatars:

Good luck, and post if anything is unclear :)
