Dialogue module by Gengo (Reworked)

 

Hello everyone, would anyone be able to help me improve this dialogue system?

When I have a lot of text, it expands, and there's a write effect. I made this primarily for myself, but you can also benefit from it.

The problem is that if there's a lot of text, the window doesn't layout as I intended, specifically regarding the buttons. They get cut off, and I'd like the window to adjust its size based on the amount of text and buttons. For example, if there are 3 buttons, the window should not cut them off but should expand, adding a few pixels at the bottom to display the buttons correctly.

Additionally, I've implemented a feature in the code to display items in the center if they are required for quests or anything an NPC might ask from the player. I'd like to make sure this feature also adapts correctly to the window size.

Perhaps there is an expert in the OTC module who could guide me or correct and remove unnecessary code that I've written and is not needed. I must admit that I'm not a very skilled developer in OTC, but I managed to accomplish something. If someone can help me, I can share this dialogue system. (Modified version of Gengo)
