Major problems with the code:
- It jumps from line 1 to line 3 very quickly as you don't define the difference from a key press and release.
- Inefficent. If you had a dialogue that was a hundred lines long, with this structure you have to create a variable and if statement for every line.

what is it?

[yaustar]

It's a text conversation done in lua.
Attached is a skeleton code without comments.

Forseen problems:
Large lines of text, how would you wrap it round the screen?
Scripting the dialogue engine to support a different number of characters.

look at some source like pspm or that court thing lua game for your forseen problems. they have awesome text engines.
