Dialogue: Grid snapping, more node types like purpose node, condition node, random node (for success rate), trigger node (link to quest for event trigger), sub-graph node (or grouped node with it's own input and output), comment node (or note).
Scripts: Repeatable properties should be easier to input.
Grid Database: Need to improve a lot, add option to export or import csv file.

Also adding embed link to other note like actors/items, split screen.

Been noodling on this for a bit.

I don't think AI is necessary for Drafft, AI is already diminishing enough as it is and feels like it'd unnecessarily bloat the tool.  I've floated the idea of templates for many parts of Drafft, and still think that'd be awesome to have and save a bunch of time.

I'd love to see the API expanded a bit more. 

My wishlist would be:

- Endpoints that can be called that force Drafft to navigate to a specific category or even a specific element or document within that category. (Use case would be a game editor tool that can call to Drafft which then opens up a specific dialogue, as an example.)

- Endpoints that can create a new entry and prepopulate it or write into sections like grids or scripts.

Looking forward to v2!

Personally, I'd love an infinite canvas/moodboard feature to put down picture inspirations for artistic directions, and notes on!

Oh, also, another idea: maybe a mindmap feature, kinda like a brainstorm place to brainstorm ideas for visual thinkers! Don't know if it's in the scope of what the app is used for, but that would be great to have it there so everything regarding game production stay in one place rather than being scattered in lot of different apps!

Another one linked to it: I'd also suggest the possibility to open and split tabs/windows of different workspace of the app so we can access for exemple the brainstorm/moodboard at the same time as other notes place so we can put down what has been "in the more vague" brainstorming phase on the more concretes docs so we can visualise everything more easily while working from one step to another, from pre-prod to more production ready!

Another more minor feedback: I personally have a 4K and 1080P displays, so it would be great if the app could auto-resize according to which display it's on!

Also, I would like to know, is it possible to hide the number lines for notes, it not be forcefully script? I saw that V2 had markdown if I'm not mistaken, so I imagine that it's a possibility? I may be mistaken about markdown tho ^^"

Heres an idea for drafft 2

in the document editor having the language support variables so when it is viewed as a document the variables are displayed instead.

For example in a gdd or story concept:

var gamename = STEAK

here is my story about $gamename ! $gamename is a story about cows.

this would then read as here is a story about STEAK! STEAK is a story about cows!

just to simplify the changing of text objects in the text with out having to do it manually. What would be even better is to be able to have the variables stored in a different text file (like C++ header files). that way we could keep as many as we wanted but keep the documents clean. Use a maybe a #include gamenames.txt, it searches for anything in the same folder, if you want to search for any other file maybe use ## instead of #.

just a thought. could be useful.

Will the Todo section make a return in V2? I think in another post you mention revisiting this or a rework?

Hi Baj/Alexis, I picked up the program a few days ago after trialling it for some months – I'm very impressed with Drafft 2! It's much more usable now, can't wait till all the features from v1 are back. 

I've been writing down some suggestions/requests, but since you're already working hard, here's only my quickest-to-implement ones:

• I would align the edit lock toggle to the right of the sidebar while all the other icons remain aligned to the left, for consistency. It will also help in case of a new icon/new icons in the future.
• Thick quadrant origin lines so you know where 0, 0 is in the dialogue graph. Maybe a "bring back to center" icon too (+ bring to selected?) when you're really far from the starting point/highlighted node.
• A status bar would be nice. This is Scrivener's, for a good comparison: https://imgur.com/IRM5fI4. I was thinking it could appear when you click on the file path at the bottom center of the document, along with a Copy to clipboard button or something like that. Literally came up with this right now.

Also, have two mockups I made of how Drafft would look like with backgrounds, just for kicks: https://imgur.com/a/BtMHnj2. 

P.S.: I'd add a function that makes fair text darker on buttons and such if you choose a primary color that's too vibrant, and shifting the Drafft logo's hue along with it so that it doesn't stay purple.

Hello, my wishlist would be 2 things inspired by other soft/app :
- a customizable database section, like rpgmaker-like database, or castleDB/gridlessDB : possibility to create various category (item, spell, skills etc...) with custom type (int, float, string...) and import image (spell icons for example). And of course the possibility to export as json or other.
- a small diagram/flowchart maker, like draw.io : not with all shapes/options, but maybe some basics shapes, to have a better view for some game mechanics (engine loop, battle system ect...).

Not sure if it's the right section to say that but I have a bug with the app when I zoom in at 120%, I can select any documents and I can see the scrolling bar (horizontal / vertical)  of documents/folders flashing. It seems that when the tens digit is even, it bugs, and when it's odd, it's fine ?

Otherwise, this v2 is rather nice, especially the dialog module, which is less rigid to use than v1.

Went to try out v2, am i required to purchase it again to use it?

I have a custom built installer and auto update script for Linux users as well that I have created but it will depend on a consistent file URL and name.

if you want it let me know. it will do all the work for you and run the software consistently across systems rather than users having to debug an app image. let me know and ill send it over if you want it.
