Question by RKelly93 · Apr 19, 2015 at 03:36 PM · character2d platformer

How do I get character dialogue to pop up?

Hi. I'm an artist, and have little experience with code. I'm trying to get characters to appear with dialogue when a character reaches a certain area. Like this, with a button click to bring the next one.

alt text

My lack of experience with code means I'm probably not using the right key terms when I search in google.

Can any of you help me?

using OnMouseDown Function and switch statement think for logic read unity document

for example

 public int tmpswthc;
 public string tmpmsg;
 
 
 
 public OnMouseDown(){
 
 
     switch(tmpswthc){
     case 0:
         // Dosomething
     
     break;
     
     case 1:
     // Dosomething
     
     break;
     
     }
 
 
 }

that depends on how you want to activate the pop-up, ive wrote a little script for you that recognises if it hits a collider

public class PopupManager : MonoBehaviour

{

 public string message;

 bool showMessage = false;

 public void Update()
 {
     Ray ray = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);
     RaycastHit2D hit = Physics2D.Raycast(ray.origin, ray.direction);

     if (hit != null)
     {
         if (hit.collider != null)
         {
             if (hit.collider.tag == "Blaa")
             {
                 message = hit.collider.GetComponent<AI>.message;
                 showMessage = true;
             }
         }
         else
         {
             message = null;
             showMessage = true;
         }
     }
 }

 void OnGUI()
 {
     GUI.BeginGroup(new Rect(0, Screen.height - 300, Screen.width, 300));
     GUI.Label(new Rect(5, 5, Screen.width - 5, 295), message);
     GUI.EndGroup();
 }

}

Edit: This is just a rough idea of what you could do, also dont know if it works because i dont do 2D

Hope this Helps
