hi,

is there any way to remove a bullet point from a dialog option?



Mandle

Yup....it's in General Options or whatever it's called: the one at the top of the navigation tree in AGS...

Unless you mean to just remove one bullet from one single dialogue and leave the rest?

Are you using the dialog scripting? Do you mean the option-off and option-off-forever commands like this? I wouldn't know how to do this outside of dialog scripting though.

Code: ags

Option text:
1: Why did the man cross the road?
2: ...

@S
  if (player_likes_bad_jokes) {
option-on 1
  }
  else {
option-off 1
  }
return
@1
Punch: To catch the chicken.
option-off-forever 1
return
@2
...


The variable 'player_likes_bad_jokes' is a global boolean that we change during the game. I like to use flags in the @S area to turn options on-off based on game play. And the last option-off-forever makes sure that rotten joke is only told once. In the manual, it's shown in the Index under 'Dialogs'.

The best way to handle dialog options is to make custom dialog option rendering :D

Then you may have dialog options look as you like.

Anyway, for removing a bullet graphic from dialogs, go to General Settings and set "Dialog > Dialog bullet point image" to 0.

i'm aware of all those lads but thanks.

i meant only remove bullet image from one option.

custom dialog options gui may be the way to go.
