Dialogue in text box?

  • #1, by ygmantellMonday, 08. January 2018, 00:47 6 years ago
    So, I've seen posts similar to this, but none of them turned up with a definitive answer.
    How would I make dialogue texts pop up in a little "window/box" on the bottom of the screen.  This would be similar to how it is in RPG maker.
    Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    hi there!

    This would be built with two things:

    1. script to reposition character text to a fixed position. 
    see last script here: 

    2. Creating an individual interface with your textbox as background and optionally buttons to represent faces. you could show and hide the interface either manually via action part or automatically call it via lua when a character text is shown (with the script above).

    Ah, okay, I can figure it out from here.  Just needed a little starting point.  
    Thanks!
