I was thinking about the best way to save the new dialogue and I decided a tree structure would be best. We can have each character's dialogue saved as an XML document with alternating levels for questions and answers.

Mobile Weapon Developer Diary #26: RPG Dialogue System
In MW:0 we only had a single level of NPC dialogue. For Mobile Weapon: Episode 1 we're going have a full out RPG dialogue system with multiple answers and depth.

Hey will mobile weapon go online one day? plus that structure looks pretty impressive
Yes, Mobile Weapon will be released as online "episodes" through mobileweapon.net and other Flash game websites.
We will try to keep the main story arc episodes free for play online. We will also have optional episodes and a mobile version for each episode you can play on your mobile phone or PDA.
After the release of Episode 1 we'll have a multiplayer arena for players to test their pilot skills vs one another.
O and will we be able to create and build our own mobiles?
The main character will be able to buy new mechs/mobiles/MAWs.
For now the only customisation options will be the colors and the weapons and internal parts (generator, armor plating, etc).
We considered allowing players to mix and match parts of different MAWs but most of our designs aren't suitable to be split into parts.
We will consider introducing this feature in the future if there is a great demand by players for it.
