Took the time to "simplify" the dialogue system but also allowing as much freedom as I could at the time with a few events

Dialogue Extension: Mouse Guide

Dialogue Extension: Combo Guide

Here's what you can do:

Pick your dialogue keys: Keyboard and or Mouse

(Keys Extension)

• Main Key 
• Option Keys
• Optional Indicator

(Mouse Extension)

• Mouse Button (Left, Middle, Right) 

(Combo Extension)

• Or Both 

Optional: Use Tags

• Pick a command to use in yarn
• Pick a sprite object to assign to that command
• You can use the preset "Sprite Tag" or
• For more freedom use "Custom Tag"

Chose what you want to do when dialogue runs
You do not need to show text/options/tags (only for "Sprite Tag")

• Disable player behavior
• Show dialogue box
• Change a variable...etc

Chose what you want to do when dialogue is done running
You do not need to hide text/options/tags (only for "Sprite Tag")

• Enable player behavior
• Hide a dialogue box
• Change a variable...etc

Choose your Text and Options 

• Configure your text scroll speed
• Show or hide text when options (text) are playing
• Choose your text object type: Text, BBText, or Bitmap

Chose how you want to start a dialogue branch

• You can start a branch with the preset "Start Branch With Collisions"
• You can start a branch with custom conditions "Start Branch Custom"
• You can start a branch with customs conditions "Start Branch Custom: No Keys/Mouse" (The words "Keys, Mouse, or Keys/Mouse" change depending on the extension you pick)
•  You can choose if you can revisit the branch or not

Tips:

• You have the entire code of both Mouse and Key version of the extension exposed to use or review as you please! You can find it in the example projects in the scene labeled as "No Extension"
• When configuring your scrolling speed, best to use TimeDelta() * Scrolling Speed for best results when frame rates drop.
•  If you are using "Start Branch Custom",  make sure your checks are above the branch condition.
  This applies generally to all things as well.
• You can assign global variables to all text portions if you want to.
•  If otherwise need help understandings yarn, check out the GDevelop Wiki on the Dialogue Tree: https://wiki.gdevelop.io/gdevelop5/all-features/dialogue-tree/
