Hi there, just bought it and downloaded it. Works nice, although I had to go with my windows machine since it doesn't like libssl on the Fedora linux one (Godot solved it by downloading it automatically I think, there's some old thread about that).

Anyway, I'm playing with your example content and it lokks like the Diaplsy message couldn't care less. Whatever I write i the box won't update the actual message in the startup script. And if I edit the script in Notepad, it still don't care. Does it hate me?

Love it so far, will go wrestle with the Voxel editor, regards!!

Hi there, thanks for the support and for the feedback! :) I'll have to look into the libssl issue - glad that you were able to run it on your Windows machine in the meantime.

And sorry to hear about the Display Message issue! Can you let me know the exact text that you are entering into the box? Someone else recently had a similar problem and it ended up being due to a special character that I needed to add support for into the script parser (specifically, the "degree" symbol), and it's possible I may be missing others. Thanks!

That was my thought and yes, it looks like it doesn't enjoy my Swedish characters at all. I suspected that, although the dialogue editor is all fine with my "å,ä,ö" stuff :)

Okay, that makes sense then! The dialogue text doesn't get parsed, so it will probably accept pretty much anything.

Currently I only have these accented/special characters included in my script parser, but I will add those that you mentioned. Let me know if there are any others and I will add those as well!

UPDATE: The latest release, v0.4.7.1, should now support the Swedish special characters! :)
