Quick question about text display

Post by Castael »

It's very possible that this has been addressed already, though I was unable to find something quite like it:

The game that I'm currently working on is partially dialogue-driven, and as such requires a lot of text to be displayed to the player. The user often has to press a key (N, or left mouse in my case) in order to move to the next lines of text in the dialogue window. Now I have a system in place that works beautiful, however, the code is massive, nasty, and overly convoluted.

I'm wondering if any of you gurus out there have a nice, compact way of displaying dialogue to players (or for that matter, just show off how you do your dialogue). Any help on the matter would be greatly appreciated.
