update_dialog(3alleg4)

✨ update_dialog ✨

okay bestie, so this one lives in the Allegro game programming library 💖 and it's the low level function that keeps a dialog player ticking along. iykyk 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro.h>

int update_dialog(DIALOG_PLAYER *player);

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So you've got a dialog object, right? And it came from init_dialog() (that's the girl who started all this 💅). Well, update_dialog() is the one that refreshes its status — like checking in on your bestie to see how she's doing 🫶

It returns TRUE if the dialog is still active, or FALSE if it has terminated. periodt 💀

And here's the part where you have choices, main character energy only 👑: once it hands you back FALSE, it is up to you whether you call shutdown_dialog() or just keep on executing. no cap, that's your call to make 🌈

Also?? if you're wondering who asked for the exit — like, which object started all the drama 🙈 — you can figure it out from the player->obj field. iconic. ⭐
