Text codes

[Tchyrimi]

What are:

[.]

[A]

and

[...]?

[Mage Knight 404]

[.] is a very small pause

[A] stops text and waits for the player to press A to continue

[....] and its extended variations all pause text at varying lengths.

These codes are all listed within FEditor's docs.

[Tchyrimi]

[0x16]

[X]

[CloseSpeechSlow]

[LoadFace]

[0x1A]

[0x02]

[0x01]? I couldn't find them.

Using the position a character is already in as a destination causes them to "bounce". Using a destination that already has a character filling it will cause the characters to switch places. Also, notice the simililarities between the movement types and the "[Open]" commands. Note that there is a 4 character limit for conversations - clear one before loading a fifth each time.

/obligatory READ THE DOC

[Chocolate Kitty]

are you

augh

[0x16], [0x1A], [0x02], and [0x01] are portrait IDs

alternatively, they are also different punctuation mark ex: ", 'p

[0x01] is used at the end of a [LoadFace] command

You can't possibly argue that [LoadFace] is not in there, since it's probably the most basic command, it Loads a face

[Open(Direction)][LoadFace][0x16][0x01]

loads face 0x16

[CloseSpeechSlow]

does what it says, closes the speech box slowly

you'll never guess what [CloseSpeechFast] does
