The Interaction Editor

The Interaction Editor is where you build scripted dialogue scenes. It uses a visual node graph where each node represents a story beat containing dialogue lines, narration, and actions. You connect nodes with edges to create linear flows, or add choices to create branching paths.

All interaction data is stored inside a Journal Entry as flag data. One journal entry holds one complete interaction.

Opening the Editor

Right-click any Journal Entry in the Journal sidebar.
Select Edit Interaction from the context menu.

The editor opens at 1200x700 and is resizable. If the journal has no interaction data, a fresh graph is created with a single start node.

The Node Graph

The main area of the editor is the node graph canvas. Nodes appear as rectangular cards, and edges appear as curved lines connecting them.

Node Anatomy

Each node card displays:

A header with the node ID (or custom label, double-click to rename)
A speaker badge if the first entry is dialogue
A preview of the first few entries (narration lines, dialogue text)
An action count badge if the node has actions
A green "Return to Exploration" badge if the node is a sub-interaction target
A red "END" badge if the node has no outgoing connections
