Title: How to show a dialog option in another topic
Post by: Luddy on Thu 15/05/2008 12:14:25
Hello

I would like to be able to have it so when the player speaks to one character it unlocks a dialog in a topic for another topic.

So when one topic is run and the player chooses a specific dialog that a dialog for a different topic is unlocked. I hope you can understand my question, this has been puzzling me.

Did you check the manual?

Also mind AGS's terminology: a dialog/topic is a collection of selectable options.

Yes I did check the manual but I do not understand how to apply that to add a topic to a conversation to another character.

You can't add an option; just disable it after creating it, then activate it later using said command (presumably inside dialog_request, which is the next thing you should look up in the manual / search the forums for).
