  • Please could someone guide me as I make a logic to build a dialog in which according to the player's response the path of the conversation changes.

    Example: the question is: what do you want?

    answer A: a pan;

    answer B: a horseshoe.

    The next question and answer group is conditioned to the answer given in the first dialogue and so on.

  • Use a variable or array to keep track of previous answers. On answer, set variable to a or b.

    When displaying question 2, if variable is a, show question 2a. If variable is b, show question 2b. A similar idea can be applied to different answer choices as well.

  • We tried your suggestion, but the logic isn't woriking.

    Do you able to make this for us? How much would you charge for it?

    Example

    Choice Branch

    #test
Mia : Hello.
Amy : Have you visited our company before?
Mia : Yes, I was here two years ago.
Amy : Would you like tea or coffee?
(...100)
[Tea](#test-tea)
[Coffee](#test-coffee)

#test-coffee
Mia : Coffee, please. With milk.
Amy: I am afraid we haven't got any milk. I'm very sorry.
Mia: It doesn't matter.

#test-tea
Mia : Tea, please.
Amy: Okay.

    Variable in String

    Mia: Hey, {name}. What are you doing?

    Condition in String

    #buy-fruit
guy : Hi, {if gold >= 1000 ? "Rich Man!" : "{name}."} You have {gold} coin. {if gold >= 10 ? "Do you want to buy {if gold > 25 ? fruit1 : fruit2}?" }

    Call Function in String

    #show-me-the-money
Starcraft:S\.H\.O\.W\.\.M\.E\.\.T\.H\.E\.\.M\.O\.N\.K\.~E\.Y\.
callFunction("AddData, gold, 1000")

    Supports some advanced syntax:

: ○ Branch in Text - {if condition ? True : False} 
: ----------------------------------------------------------
: condition | < | <= | > | >= | = | == | <> | != |
: branch | number | variable | "string" | "This is a string and {variable}." | 
: ..........................................................
: branch only True {if condition ? True}
: branch True & False {if condition ? True : False}
: ..........................................................
: compare number {if money >= 2000 ? "Rich Man!" : username}
: compare variable {if condition != variable ? "text1" : "text2"}
: compare "text" {if weather = "Cloudy" ? "It looks like rain."}
: ----------------------------------------------------------
: Note: Use `callfunction` set variable to make more branches.
: Note: All variables from dictionary. equal to `dictionary.Get(variable)`
