HELP: How can I make io functions?

Post by kandarian »

I want to make a dialogue where you can choose from 1 to n different options of dialogue to respond with (think Bioware), to be able to make RPG-like elements and to "speak" with the player, but I haven't found anything in the script reference to be able to do that. I also can't seem to be able to access either io.write/read functions nor on.charIn or equivalent. Help maybe =)?

I dont think there are any io functions and i really hope it stays that way.

Giving IO ability in a mod would mean I would never use any other dungeons as they would have access to my pc (well at least write would any way).

Maybe some sort of dialog box with buttons may be forth coming - but nothing exists at the moment - you could of course use buttons to simulate choices, but that does restrict your narrative a bit
