This is a simple way to get characters from user and use it in dialogue. This tool has 3 modes in it.

 Create Simple Text-  Very simple and reusable script. You can input 4 characters and use this for something like naming in RPG.

 Create Dialogue- Little bit more complex script that supports ABC and Zhuyin (Bopomofo). You can get in total 36 characters from the user (18 for each text window). You can also press the Select Button for other characters and ability to move the character you are on. Press the Start Button when you are finished to show and save your dialogue.

Change Name- Same as "Create Simple Text". Might change it in the future.

This was done in the GBStudio 2.0.0-beta5 so the systems will not work in GB Studio 3 versions. This is because GB Studio 3 has a 16KB script limit that is absent from the older versions. Another reason is that the ascii seems to be different from the older versions, so when you press a character, nothing will happen or the wrong character gets displayed.

Special Thanks to SodoDev for making GlyphBoy! GlyphBoy was used for the Zhuyin keyboard.
