Assemble a Flow

Flows are where all your prep pays off. The node-based canvas lets you orchestrate dialogue, reactions, and sentiment shifts without code.

Start with the essentials

1. Create a new flow from the dashboard and pick the default model (or select a custom one if you need specialized behavior).
2. Drag the Character Node onto the canvas and choose the character you built earlier.
3. Attach the Scene Node so lighting, props, and entry animations load automatically.

Layer in voice and sentiment

• Connect the Voice Node to the character. Choose your primary voice or leave it blank for silent animations.
• Add a Sentiment Router to branch responses for joy, surprise, concern, or custom moods.
• Pair each sentiment branch with matching emote animations from your library.

Build the conversation path

• Use Dialogue Nodes to script prompts, hints, and guardrails.
• Insert Condition Nodes for user inputs (keywords, intent scores, or inventory checks).
• Create Action Nodes to trigger animations or external webhooks when conditions are met.

Drag-and-drop tip: Hold Option while dragging to duplicate nodes with their connections—perfect for alternate dialogue beats.

Test the flow

1. Hit Playtest to open the canvas preview.
2. Run through happy, neutral, and challenging user paths.
3. Watch for timing mismatches between voice and animation; adjust node delays as needed.

When the flow feels cohesive, you’re ready to deliver it to the chat experience.
