⬜ Alert

The Alert block allows you to display a text message with simple formatting (bold, italics, links...) and an optional image. This kind of formatting is called "Markdown"; you don't need to master it, the built-in editor takes care of it. Its visual behavior differs depending on the template used:

• Template Chatbot: the message is displayed in the discussion feed, in a bubble with a style distinct from classic dialogues, without character name.
• Visual Novel Template: the message is displayed as a notification positioned on the screen, above the interface, in the chosen location.

In both cases, the flow continues automatically without waiting for user interaction.

📥 Entries

• in (Flow): Triggers the display of the alert.
• text (HTML): Text of the alert, edited via the integrated editor which generates HTML (rendering is done in raw HTML). You can insert dynamic variables between double braces (eg: {{score}}). Each variable used automatically generates an additional entry point on the block, to be connected to the corresponding variable (Text, Number or Boolean).
• image (Image, Optional): Image to display in the notification.
• position (Enum, Visual Novel only): Location of the on-screen notification. 9 positions available:
• Top left / Top center / Top right (default)
• Middle left / Center / Middle right
• Bottom left / Bottom center / Bottom right

📤 Outings

• out (Flow): Activates immediately after displaying the alert. The flow continues without waiting for interaction.
