Line 293:
Line 293: − Many dialogue strings are, in the vanilla Stardew Valley framework, unable to be customized on a per-NPC basis. For example, an NPC's response to being given a [[bouquet]]. A workaround to this problem is possible using {{nexus mod|1915|Content Patcher}} alone, but in modern modding, {{nexus mod|6358|Custom Fixed Dialogue}} is recommended to be used instead.+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
Restored example of how to use just CP for custom NPC-specific generic dialog
===NPC-specific generic dialogue===
===NPC-specific generic dialogue===
With some ingenuity, you can make each NPC respond differently instead of using the normal static dialogue. You can use a special mod like {{nexus mod|6358|Custom Fixed Dialogue}}, but the same effect can be achieved with just {{nexus mod|1915|Content Patcher}} with some effort. To change <samp>NPC.cs.3962</samp> and <samp>NPC.cs.3963</samp> (to give a bouquet), and <samp>NPC.cs.3980</samp> (for the mermaid pendant acceptance):
<syntaxhighlight lang="json">
{
"Action": "EditData",
"Target": "Strings/StringsFromCSFiles",
"Entries": {
"NPC.cs.3962": "$q 10001 give_flowersA#?!...#$r 10001 0 give_flowersA# [Give Bouquet]",
"NPC.cs.3963": "$q 10001 give_flowersB#?!...#$r 10001 0 give_flowersB# [Give Bouquet]",
"NPC.cs.3980": "$q 10001 give_pendant#?!...#$r 10001 0 give_pendant# Will you marry me?"
}
}
</syntaxhighlight>
In this example, each NPC will get their response from the <samp>give_flowersA</samp>, <samp>give_flowersB</samp>, and <samp>give_pendant</samp> dialogue key in their [[Modding:Dialogue#Character-specific dialogue|character dialogue]] files. (See [[#Format|format]] below for more info on the syntax.)
Note that these should be added for all datable characters to avoid errors. For example, you could add this for Haley:
<syntaxhighlight lang="json">
{
"Action": "EditData",
"Target": "Characters/Dialogue/Haley",
"Entries": {
"give_flowersA": "Oh.. these are beautiful.$1#$b#...What? You want to be my Boyfriend?$8^...What? You want to be my Girlfriend?$8#$b#....I thought we already were together.$1",
"give_flowersB": "Ohhh, @! I would love to be your true love.$1",
"give_pendant": ".....$8#$b#@, I don't know what to say..$8#$b#...$7#$b#Yes... I accept...$4#$b#I can't wait to tell the Mayor... Everything should take 3 days to set up.$1"
}
}
</syntaxhighlight>
This can be used for other generic responses, and you even can avoid the "Give Bouquet" by asking for an answered question's ID.
