Creating a Dialogue Box
Hi ,
I want to create a scroll-able dialogue system like here.
The things I'm unable to crack are :
1. How do I make the text not disappear after each dialogue?
2. How do I place it in a UI separate from the character?

It is possible to have a speech line display on-screen indefinitely by use of the [hold] token - see the "Text tokens" chapter of the Manual.
However, as AC still places each line in its own menu, I suspect that something like this is best achieved with a custom-made UI system. AC's speech/translation/audio systems can still be used, I'm only talking about the way in which dialogue itself is displayed on screen.
You should look into using the OnStartSpeech custom event, a tutorial for which can be found here. This essentially allows you to run your own code whenever a line of dialogue begins, allowing you to forego AC's own dialogue displaying functionality in favour of your own one, which instead adds each line to the same UI.
