TreeSheets Game

[Francis Herding]

Hello Wouter,

Could one use Lobster to convert TreeSheets into a Multichoice Text Adventure Game Editor like for instance Twine (sugarcube script), ChoiceScript, Ink or articy:draft?

Applications like these are often used by game designers to create stories, conversations and quest for games. Most export to HTML, some also export to, Godot, Unity or Unreal.

TreeSheets seems like it might have an advantage as it does not slow the writer down and still gives the writer a nice overview of the branching story structure.

Kind regards,

Francis

The Lobster scripting integration is really meant to change the data in TreeSheets directly, while editing.

These tools however using scripting to associate code with the dialogue tree, for example to make certain dialog choices conditional on previous ones. That's a very different idea.

So TreeSheets is awesome to edit any kind of tree structure, and you could edit code in it, it would just be static data for the purpose of TreeSheets. It is in this case just a better replacement for editing indented text, which can represent the same thing but is harder to overview.
