Sorry I hope I posted this in the right area.


Is there a plugin or a way to make a message keep going? For example


Message: Hello how are you?


Choice: 


[Good] You are good,


[Bad] You are bad,


oh fair enough.


This is how it would end up displaying.


"You are good oh fair enough."


"You are bad oh fair enough."


So the sentence continues after the choice message has been displayed? I would rather not have to copy paste the entire text again. 


Any help would be wonderful.


P.S I have checked Google and I also have tried Message Core, but I can't see anything that does this?

Well I think most people could use more info as this doesn't make much sense. I don't understand what you want to remove as the message system doesn't say "message" unless you type for it to say that. You could just start out with the choices and type them out to say the 2nd part yourself so I'm really lost on what the problem is sorry.

That might explain it a little better?


Basically I want the end of the choice to extend the message passed the choice. Argh, explaining this is hard, hopefully the image sheds light on things.

Yeah you're just going to have to copy and paste it like the rest of us. Unless of course, you're wanting to do this for a load of text, then I can understand a plugin, but as of now, this isn't really saving you much time.

so you want the show choice display inside the same window as the show text messages instead of using a different window above or below the show text?


That is not easy as it breaks the boundary between commands, but it can be done. You'll need a special plugin however, it can't be done with a few line changes.


Have you checked if the existing message plugins (especially Tsukihime's plugins about choices) already contain this option? I doubt that, I think you'll have to make a request topic for this (and then try to include a mockup picture on how the message window should look like)

Well thanks anyway guys haha. Guess I'll just have to do the copy paste thing. I know it doesn't cost much time, but I'm a bit OCD with my code, and if I notice a grammar error within it, I'd rather only have to change "1" thing rather than all the times I copy pasted it.

@Kelphy You could do something like this using the 'script' option within the Variable Control command :

Code:
◆Text:None, Window, Bottom
:    :Hello, would you like a sword or an axe?
◆Show Choices:Sword, Axe (Window, Right, #1, #2)
:When Sword 
  ◆Comment:// Set Variable to [Sword]
  ◆Control Variables:#0005 = 'I would like a Sword,'
:When Axe 
  ◆Comment:// Set Variable to [Axe]
  ◆Control Variables:#0005 = 'I would like an Axe,'
:End
◆Comment:// Use \V[variableId] to Display Saved Text
◆Text:None, Window, Bottom
:    :\V[5] please! I would really appreciate it.
◆Comment:// Reset Variable
◆Control Variables:#0005 = 0

I had no idea you could set strings to variables. Scripts allow you to do a lot. It's bit too complex for what I'm after, but that will help me regardless for location names that I might want to change for the future.


[Edit]So thanks!! Haha!

Don't forget, aspiring writers: Personality isn't what your characters do, it is WHY they do it.
Hello! I would like to know if there are any pluggings or any way to customize how battles look?
I was thinking that when you start the battle for it to appear the eyes of your characters and opponents sorta like Ace Attorney.
Sadly I don't know how that would be possible so I would be needing help! If you can help me in any way I would really apreciate it!
The biggest debate we need to complete on which is better, Waffles or Pancakes?
