We are making good progress toward version 1.0 and we are still on track for a late March or early April release.  In addition to the previously mentioned features, we wanted to share these new features that you will be seeing in version 1.0.

Lua Scripting Back-End

Chat Mapper has adopted Lua as a scripting back-end for tracking variables and forming conditions for the dialog nodes.  The system is so robust that you can script and simulate an entire game within Chat Mapper using the full power of Lua!

New UI With Saved Layouts

We have overhauled the UI system for maximum usability, stablility, and a bunch of other “ilities”.  The new system includes savable layouts.

Conversation Simulator Re-Designed

The conversation simulator has gotten a complete re-design and now includes saved states, forward and back navigation, and the ability to track variables to debug your conversations.
