Any easy way to edit/add to Walter's stories?

[Pine G]

I have absolute zero expertise with this kind of stuff so any help would be gladly appreciated!

I'm not sure about easy but someone made him recite the entire script of Bee Movie so it's definitely doable.

I've put this in the modmain.lua and it seems to work.
 

GLOBAL.STRINGS.STORYTELLER = {
	WALTER = {
		CAMPFIRE = {
			BOG_MONSTER = { -- The bog monster story ( Edited )
				lines = {
					{duration = 2.5, line = "Custom bog monster 1."},
					{duration = 3.5, line = "Custom bog monster 2."},
					{duration = 4.0, line = "Custom bog monster 3."},
				},	
			},
			CLOCKS = { -- The clock guy story ( Edited )
				lines = {
					{duration = 2.5, line = "Custom clock 1."},
					{duration = 3.0, line = "Custom clock 2."},
					{duration = 2.5, line = "Custom clock 3."},
				},
			},
			CUSTOM_STORY = { -- A custom story I added
				lines = {
					{duration = 2.5, line = "Custom story 1."},
					{duration = 3.0, line = "Custom story 2."},
					{duration = 2.5, line = "Custom story 3."},
				},
			},
		},
	},
}

Is there a way to make the stories continue on the next night and not just start all over again every night?

I'm not sure. It could be possible but you'd probably have to edit storyteller component and that might be tough.

That seems pretty necessary if you want to have a story of any length.

Well, Don't Starve nights are not that short, even the shortest ones give you a good amount of time. I don't know what story could take so long. Summer nights might be too short if the story is that long but winter nights are almost half the entire day so you should have plenty of time. But if you REALLY want that Bee Movie script then editing the storyteller component might be necessary
