How do i make a custom dialogue system?

So, i’m trying to make my own version of roblox’s default dialog/dialogue system, since its very limited to customization and UI design.

Here’s an article for those who don’t know what dialogs are: NPC Dialog Boxes

Iv’e already gotten the layout for conversations done

I just don’t know what to do from here.

Some help will be greatly appreciated!

Are you asking how to make the chat say {System} (Message)?? As in when a friend joins it says “{System} You’re friend … has joined the game.”?

You misread my thread. I’m asking how do i make my own version of ROBLOX’s built-in Dialog / Dialogue system. Not the chat system.

Text on screen or do you just wanna make it say whatever you want in chat? Am I misunderstanding??

Currently asking myself the same question, could you please make it a little clearer?

Oh alright, well let me look a little more into it. I’ll most likely respond within the next half hour.

Ohh, are you asking how to make it where people can pick a dialogue and have it say it in chat? Like Murder?

no. Dialogs are for NPCs. Have you ever played a game with an NPC that you can chat to?

It should look like this

So you want text on screen? Like having a chat with a NPC? Do you want it to say it in chat or (Again) on screen? Oh!!! I understand!

Edit: Found a page on dev forum. Hope it helps!

Also I think this is the script for it. Not sure though.

  1. workspace.Dialog.DialogChoiceSelected:connect(function(player,choice)
  2. if choice.Name == “No” then
  3. player.Character.Humanoid.Health = 0
  4. elseif choice.Name == “Yes” then
  5. player.Character.Humanoid.Health = 1000
  6. end
  7. end)

You have the wrong layout I think, I have an NPC just like this in my game, let me check the layout
real fast.

Thats using roblox’s default dialog. I’m trying to make my own version

I’m confused now, You want to make the same thing but, make it different? What are you asking? Am I the only one not understand?

ok, the issue i have with roblox’s default dialog, is that its very limited to customization. Like what if i want my own design?

You want to change the color and everything? Doesn’t it explain that on the dev forum page I sent earlier?

your not understanding. Its not just the colour i want to customize. its the whole system.

And like i said before, the thing sent me talks about roblox’s default dialog system.

Like, what do you want to customize?

the coding, the interface design, and i even wan’t to add my own little things.

There are a lot of videos out there talking about this. Search them up before you make a post.

You just have to google it. I googled it and found it.
