probably wrong section but idk what it is so idk where to put it. Can someone please explain to me what a dialog is and how they work in general? I'm pretty sure you need them to create custom UI which I want to do.
Ok, so how do I make then in the editor and be displayed in game instead of the standard UI?
First of all, the dialogs and the standard UI aren't exactly made out of the same stuff, or rather, behave in the same way.
Dialogs can be modified real-time in game while the standard UI can not. What you can do is to hide the standard UI by using the inbuilt action. Use the search bar to find it.
If you want to create some dialogs, check out the tutorial section for some help. If not, then simply return to this thread and request further help.
Ok. Maybe I am bad at posting. I have seen someone say that in order to create things like displayed HP bars and ammo displays, you must make dialogs and remove the standard user interface. I did not know what he was talking about. Therefore, here I am asking.

That's fine. I simply explained what a dialog is and then recommended you to check out some tutorials related to creating dialogs.

Well, you can think about a dialog as the huge block that is holding all of the content.
If we take the normal Windows Message box as an example then the box itself would be the dialog and the buttons inside would be the dialog items.
