Dialogue Node Graph for Game Creator 2’s Dialogue 2

A node-graph editor for Game Creator 2’s Dialogue 2. View and edit your dialogues in a node based view!

Opening the editor

1. In the Hierarchy, select a GameObject with the Dialogue component.

2. Open the editor by either:

   • Menu: Tools → KingEdward → Dialogue Node Editor
   • Shortcut: Shift+E

The window opens and loads the selected object’s dialogue. Changing selection to another GameObject with a Dialogue component switches the graph to that dialogue.

Graph area

• Nodes: Each node is a line or option in the dialogue (text, choice, or random). The short text on the node is a preview only.

• Connections: An arrow from one node to another defines order: after that node, flow continues to the connected one (child).

• Groups: You can group nodes in boxes to organize (see below).

Basic interaction

• Drag a node to move it.

• Drag from a node’s output port to empty space to create a new node already connected as a child.

• Select a node to edit its details in the Inspector on the right (actor, text, conditions, etc.).

• Delete / Backspace with one or more nodes selected to remove them.

• Known Limitation: The system doesn't support changing child-parent relation by connecting/removing outputs yet

Keyboard shortcuts

| Ctrl+D (Cmd+D on Mac) | Duplicate the selected node (copy as sibling, with its own data). |

| Ctrl+N (Cmd+N on Mac) | With a node selected: create a child next to it. With nothing selected: create a root node at center. |

| Ctrl+G (Cmd+G on Mac) | Create a group at center of the view. |

| Delete / Backspace | Delete the selected node(s) or group. |

| Ctrl+Z | Undo (nodes, connections, groups, resize, etc.). |

| Ctrl+Y (Cmd+Shift+Z on Mac) | Redo. |

Context menu (right-click)

• On graph background:

  • Add Node (root) – new root node at click position.
  • Add Child Node – (when a node is selected) new child at click position.
  • Duplicate Node (sibling) – (when a node is selected) duplicate as sibling.
  • Add Group – new group at click position.

• On a node:

  • Add Child Node – new child.
  • Duplicate Node (sibling) – duplicate as sibling.

Groups

• Create: Right-click → Add Group or shortcut Ctrl+G.
• Resize: Drag the bottom-right blue corner of the group box.
• Move: Drag by the group title bar.
• Rename: Click the group title and edit; name is saved when you leave the field.
• Add nodes: Drag nodes into the group box (or create nodes inside it).
• Delete group: Select the group and press Delete (nodes inside stay in the graph).

Groups and node positions are saved per dialogue and support Undo/Redo (Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Y).

Inspector (right panel)

When a node is selected, the Inspecto* panel on the right shows:

• Tag, Node Type (Text / Choice / Random), Conditions, Actor, Text, Audio, Animation, On Start / On Finish, Duration, Jump, etc.

Changes in the Inspector apply to the node immediately. The Inspector button in the toolbar shows or hides the panel.

Toolbar

• Inspector – show or hide the Inspector panel.
• Center – frame the view on the first root node.

Tips

• Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+Y work for nodes, connections, groups, and group resizing.
• Duplicate (Ctrl+D or Duplicate Node) creates a sibling (same parent) with a full copy of the data (text, type, etc.), not a reference.
• Node and group positions are stored per dialogue; reopening the same Dialogue restores the layout.
• If Shift+E doesn’t open the editor, use Tools → KingEdward → Dialogue Node Editor from the menu.
