Dialogue buttons, I'm lost

[Lady MufflaN]

Right, I need to create a "simple" dialogue button that asks "Left" or "Right" where the poor heroes in my map need to chose if they go left or right, I guess adding each response to a integer and then do a simple if / then / else is the proper way, but then again, I'm not stuck there, I dunno how to create the buttons :\

Dialoges are Variables, u can't just create them like Multiboards.

Make a Variable for:
Dialog Box
"Left" Button
"Right" Button

make a trigger

You dont use If/Then/Elses for Dialogs. You need to make another trigger for each option. Use the event Dialog-Dialog Button is clicked and then a condition to check which one was clicked.

[Squishy]

Yeah.

 

[Lady MufflaN]

Yeah.

Well, it ain't working, I when I try it I get a looooooot of right/left buttons, and quite frankly, even if I click one, nothing happens (I've put down the required votes to 1 so I didn't mess that up at least)

 

[Squishy]

Try putting Dialog-Clear Dialog before the actions in the first trigger.
