Neat to see you here! Rakugo was a huge motivator for my own system that I've been working on for private development. It really got me thinking of how to work with the more obscure parts of Godot like GraphEdit and GraphNode.

Why private, I welcome any one to help me with Rakugo especially some one that help with some visual programming (is dark magic to me)

how finished is rakugo? Lets say I want to use it on my rpg, wich btw has a state machine, so ideally i want that everytime a dialogue finishes it sends a signal so i can switch state.

Also. Im currently using unity, and one thing I noticed on frameworks like fungus or yarn is that they use their own variables instead o script ones, wich makes integrating a quest system annoying.
How is rakugo on this regard??

I never used fungus or yarn, but I know that there are graphical tools.
Rakugo is for now only GDScript tool (Ren'Py like own script langue and visual scripting is comming in future).
In and as this is coding tool you can use script variables or use global RakugoVars like this:
Python:
Rakugo.define("some_var", 3)
var some_var = Rakugo.get_var("some_var")
# you can connect signal to var change:
some_var.connect("value_changed", self, "_on_some_var_changed")
# add more

Nice! it drives me crazy that i have to find ways to manipulate my system's variables along with the dialogue systems.

What about my previous question? wich just to clarify it would be like diablo, but with less combat and more giggity.

You should be able to do just do emit_signal("signal_name") after a specific dialogue or whenever else you want. Then connect those signals to your FSM.

Yes it is point n click part is very incomplete,

And is very simple to make this staff using it, but now I focus on .
You combine Rakugo with Open RPG by GDQuest (Nathan):

Also you have tons of godot tutorials on youtube.

  • Save / Load system + auto save on exit
  • History
  • Dialog menus
  • Dialog boxes with character avatar
  • RakugoTextLabels, Dialog boxes that supports bbcode, renpy markup and emojis
  • Ask func - equivalent of renpy.input
  • Quests system
  • Options:
    • text speed slider
    • auto speed slider
    • setting graphic quality
    • music / sound sliders (now broken)
  • Show / Hide like in renpy
  • Characters nodes
  • GDScriptDialog - Node to make writing dialog using GDScript easier

I remember you had a full game made on this, could you upload a video showcase to better know what this is capable of? the tutorials are good but don't really convey the message.

Yes, and No - yes there is small game on this - is just a port of Ren'Py 's "The Question" - you can download it from project page, but this does not fully showcase all Rakugo's features - I should made one, but I don't have any idea for it :(
But I can make video that showcase all Rakugo's features - thanks for idea I will made it soon :)

I mean. You posted the features before. But one thing is seeing them in action and another is reading them, so yeah I hope you can make a vid showing the workflow mostly or maybe even some screen captures would help. after all one image is worth a thousand words.
