QuizMenuTool Tutorial

Revision as of 19:43, 26 July 2025 by Chesyon (talk | contribs) (Added info on StarterMenuTool)

This article is unfinished. You can help expanding it.


This guide explains how to use QuizMenuTool to create a custom Personality Quiz. The bulk of this guide will explain the use of the google sheets portion of the tool. A rudimentary understanding of SkyTemple scripting will be assumed, namely adding new acting scenes, and adding scenes to unionall.ssb. For help with these topics... TODO: Link supplemental resources or suggest #support.

Who QuizMenuTool is for

If either of the below points do not apply to you, you do not need QuizMenuTool.

  • You would like to expand (or shrink) the list of starter options in the game.
  • You would like to keep the personality quiz in the game.

If you only want to change the size of the starter list, and do not want the personality quiz (as if the SkipQuiz patch is applied), you should instead use StarterMenuTool, which is less powerful but requires much less work to set up.

Personality Quiz Assembling Sheet

Making a Copy of the Sheet

The above link does NOT grant edit access. In order to use the sheet, a copy will need to be made as follows:

 
Location of the "File" and "Make a Copy" buttons.

First click the "File" button on the top left. Next, "Make a Copy" of the sheet. Finally, name the copy as desired.

Cell Color-Coding

Throughout the spreadsheet, most cells are color-coded. Here's a brief explanation of each color present in the sheet:

  • Green Cells are for user input. If a cell is green, it is intended to contain input data.
  • Grey Cells contain formulas. They will update automatically, and should not be edited.
  • Orange Cells are for user outputs. If a cell is orange, it is intended to be exported elsewhere, such as to a SkyTemple script.
  • Cells without a color or of an unspecified color are typically safe to edit. Always check for a formula first though!
