If there is a feature you want for this engine, feel free to tell about it here.

You can see my To Do list here.

There you can see if I’m already working on some feature or bug fix. Note that the To Do list might not be very readable for someone other than me, but I’m working on it.

Hi, I have purchased your Dialogue engine for GameMaker and have been trying to get some code to work with. Is it possible to add additional function the "textbox_set_names" that has the same funtionality with "textbox_set_portrait"? Because, I would like to change the character's name to matches with the portrait of character that currently speaking.

exsample

textbox_create("This is the best dialogue engine!", "As you can see, it works perfectly.", "You can change the speed of the text from fast...")

textbox_set_portrait(cha1,cha2,cha1);

textbox_set_names(name1,name2,name1);

Actually, I have already added this feature for the upcoming update. :)

I still want to test the update more before publishing it though.

If you don’t want to wait, you can do it “manually” like this:

if (!textbox_exists()) {
    textbox_create("Hi1.","Hi2.");
    // call textbox_set here and set a character name with it
    
}else if (textbox.message_current == 0) { // Textbox exists and current message is 0 (you can try different message numbers, I'm not sure which number is considered first etc.)
    // call textbox_set here and use another character name
    
}

That was impressive! Thank you very much, 

I am looking forward for more features from you, you're doing an amazing job!
