Pop-Up Dialog Device

The Pop-up Dialog device is an interface you can use to make boxes of text appear in the HUD that players can interact with. The boxes can contain multiple lines of text. They use multiple choice or Yes-No responses. You can use these boxes in many ways:

• Create a way that players can vote on something.
• Display messages or instructions for the player.
• Display background information for objectives (when used with a Tracker device).
• Connect to invisible Class Selector devices and allow players to choose their class.
• Create dialog between the player and NPCs.

To find the Pop-up Dialog device, see Using Devices.

If you're using multiple copies of a device on an island, it can be helpful to rename them. Choosing names that relate to a device's purpose makes it easier to remember what each one does, and easier to find a specific device when using the Event Browser.

Contextual Filtering

Some devices are affected by a feature called contextual filtering. This feature hides or displays options depending on the values selected for certain related options. This feature will reduce clutter in the Customize panel and make options easier to manage and navigate.
