Choice tags support #165

Closed Syjgin closed 2 years ago

Syjgin commented 2 years ago

Added ability to work with tags on the specific choice level. It's useful when the user wants to decorate a single choice in Unity (for example, to inform gamer, that this choice will cost some money or resources). Syntax is following:

`=== first_tutorial === Ok, I can do that for for you, but not for free # face:merchant

[Ok] -> begin_deal # money:-20
[Maybe later] -> skip_conversation`

Oh awesome, I needed this! What does it do when choice text becomes content text? (When not using [] around your choice text)

Syjgin commented 2 years ago

@tomkail it does nothing, as far as I can see: with choice text after the parenttheses, tag is still correctly parsed as choice tag, but does not affect next state after choice. When I test it in the Inky, however, this displayed as follows: But when I test scenario in Unity, there are no additional tags in the target knot was exists.

Without brackets all also works identically

I’m afraid 2 points on this PR:

there are modifications to the runtime that belong in the main ink repo (inkle/ink)
we actually have plans to officially support choice tags in a different way

So we won’t be able to accept this, sorry!
