Dope Dialogue is a unique inventory and dialogue system for Unity designed to speed up the process of creating dialogue heavy projects with a visual scripting tool. It was also meant to be ABSOLUTELY FREE!!! (unlike some systems currently available in the Asset Store). Unfortunately, the project is currently under heavy development, so you can't use it in all its glory just yet. :\
In the future, here's what I'd like to allow you to be able to do:
- Script Editor - edit scripting events in a visual node editor modelled after Unreal Engine's Blueprints
- include a database of scripts, dialogue, and inventory
- use variables with scope, either local to a single script or global between all scripts
- quick integration to custom UI elements - this means you can have the system display dialogue, inventory, quests, and whatnot to a canvas
- Saving - any in-game changes to data can be stored in a save file
- Unity Packages - import the system at any time to your project using a Unity package file
Just look up Unreal's blueprints. The script editor is designed to be a simpler version of it, so most behaviour will be stolen from there.
