Many games have some sort of dialog between the game and the human player.

It comes in principle in these 3 forms:
- Status messages
- Messages and
- Question and Answer dialogs = there is a great plugin for that called Question.zip

Here is my message dialog script, it uses a bs generator popular some years ago, to counter the boredom of repeating the same message all the time at the same time, condition or event. enjoy
