Dialogue to Text

[Eddymanman]

Hey I would like to know how to convert dialogue in the chat box like this:

question.PNG

into a variable that can be read?

I'm trying to make a calculator.


so far I only have this and i was looking at the aerolib github but..yea

Procedure idkWhatImDoing;
Begin
if (DoConversationEx(['What','hat is'], false)) then
  Begin

  End;

    if (DoConversationEx(['Correct','ect ans'], false)) then
      Begin
        clickToContinue;
        writeln('Finished conversation');
      End;


End;

Is the question always static (ie What is x + y)?

Or do the questions jump between addition, subtraction, division & multiplication?

Always static, and the numbers are always 0 to 9

I'm not trying to make it very pretty just trying to make a script that works. I was going to make it type in all possible solutions to 0-9 addition, it was the only thing i could think of tbh. Their only form of deterrent is that question and there's no penalty for solving it wrong. There's only 0-18 or 19 solutions to the problem in total

That looks like the 'CharsNPC07' font. Simba should have no problem reading it.

edit: I see that there are no numbers in font, and Simba isn't reading the text correctly in my tests. You can try adding them yourself or using Tesseract.

getChatOptions() might work?

op

I got it to work by adding '+', '6', and '7' to the 'CharsNPC07' font folder. The new bitmaps are attached below.

program new;

procedure Question;
var
  bmp: Int32;
  b: TBox;
  tpa: TPointArray;
  atpa: T2DPointArray;
begin
  bmp := LoadBitmap(AppPath + 'question.png');
  SetTargetBitmap(bmp);

  if FindColors(tpa, 0, 200, 50, 320, 70) then
  begin
    b := GetTPABounds(tpa);
    WriteLn(GetTextAtEx(b.x1, b.y1, b.x2, b.y2, 0, 5, 1, 0, 0, 'CharsNPC07'));
  end;

  SetDesktopAsClient;
  FreeBitmap(bmp);
end;

begin
  ClearDebug;
  Question;
end.

What is 7 + 6?

nvm had to restart my simba

Using widgets in reflection you can easily obtain the information, every time. There's a guide to widgets and debugger floating around here as well. Run debugger when you have the dialogue up and the exact text should appear in one of the widgets that it prints out. Then, if you read the widgets guide you should know how to do the rest.

Haha yeah I forgot to do that while I was testing it. Fonts are loaded when Simba is started. Glad you got it working!
