[SOLVED] Dialog doesn't work on signs (I have no clue lmao)

[icekiller8002]

I'm trying to make an interactive system with signs by loading the sign text data from a .dat file. It seems to work only once, but after the first interaction, it doesn't work.

I used some prints to debug this, and the issue is on this line:

Code: Select all

ttxt[ntxt] = ttxt[ntxt]:sub(5)

This line is not only setting the text in ttxt[ntxt] to the 5th character as the first, but it's doing it to signData[sc][ntxt] as well. I have no clue why it's doing this, but I went ahead and provided a .love because this is confusing me so much. I appreciate any help I can get.

I tried but I don't understand how your code work, "txtt" become empty after ending the first conversation that's as far as I went.

You have globals everywhere and functions that call them without being passed as argument. Also your variable names are not easy to understand to say the least.
