Changelog

🆕 v0.9 - WIP

Moved Dialog.tscn to the root of the addon so it is easier to find.
New tool: Glossary Editor
New default asset: Glossary Font
Theme Editor:
- Added new options to customize the glossary popup (still not working)
Timeline Editor:
- Added categories for the events.
- New Emit Signal event. This event will make the Dialog node emit a signal called dialogic_signal. You can connect this in a moment of your timeline with other scripts.
- New Change Scene event. You can change the current Scene to whatever .tscn you pick. This will happen instantly, but in the future I'll add some transition effects so it is not that abrupt.
- Re-adding the End Branch event.

New Dialogic class. With this new class you can add dialogs from code easily:

var new_dialog = Dialogic.start('Your Timeline Name Here')
add_child(new_dialog)

To connect signals you can also do:

func _ready():
    var new_dialog = Dialogic.start('Your Timeline Name Here')
    add_child(new_dialog)
    new_dialog.connect("dialogic_signal", self, 'signal_from_dialogic')

func signal_from_dialogic(value):
    print(value)

Bug fixes:
- Fixing an error when having an empty join event in a timeline.
