Add Message Logging System #14

Open The-Randalorian opened 1 year ago

The-Randalorian commented 1 year ago

This is part 1 of #13.

Dialegume should store a log of messages played. This system should work in the following modes:

Fixed Length Mode
- Set number of items
- Dump current history to disk
- Delete old elements
Infinite Length Mode
- Growing number of items
- Dump current history to disk
- Dump old elements as chunks of history to disk

The plan is to create the following resources:

DialegumeHistoryItem - base class for items in the history (messages, choices, etc)
DialegumeHistoryTracker - base class for all history trackers
DialegumeHistoryTrackerFixed - fixed length history tracker
DialegumeHistoryTrackerInfinite - growing history tracker
DialegumeHistoryChunk - fixed length history chunk for infinite history tracker (possibly just use HistoryTrackerFixed?)

I'm going to go with one class, and have Godot handle saving huge history arrays to disk.
