To have characters give gifts, simply add a condition to InteractableCharacter to trigger that line of dialogue, and add a function to alter the player’s inventory onDialogueEnd. I will go through this in-depth when the series gets to NPC events.

hello can you elaborate please I’m not too comfortable with the code thank you for your feedback

[Jonathan Teo]

So in the TriggerDialogue function, add something along the lines of

if(condition that makes NPC want to give the player a gift){
dialogueToHave = insertDialogueHere;
onDialogueEnd += GiftPlayer;
}

Then on the GiftPlayer function you just need to add the item to the player’s inventory.
