Idle Dialogue Exit
Version: 1.0
Author: DiamondandPlatinum3
Date: July 23, 2013
Planned Future Versions
Description
This script allows you to set an automatic continuation when your player is not being responsive.
Basically if your player has not read the text in the textbox before a specified amount of time, you can allow it so that the NPC talking to them can do one of two things.
- Move on to the Next Event Command (this is just the next command in the list; so it may be another text box or a battle).
- Exit event processing entirely. This NPC will start doing all the things they were doing before you bothered them and act like you never spoke to them.
Features
- Exits Dialogue Processing after a certain period of inactivity.
- If the above has taken place, you can choose to exit event processing entirely if desired.
- Activate an Event-Switch or Self-Switch once the player has ignored an NPC. Use this to make them show emotions or something of that nature.

Known Compatibility Issues
I am unaware of any scripts it doesn't work with; if you find any, post in this thread.
This script overwrites some default methods for window_base. I anticipate this should be okay for most Messaging Systems, however be wary of custom message systems all the same.
Demo
Shouldn't be necessary
