Recon Dialogue Kit
==================

7 field kit dialogue components for dark interfaces — gunmetal with flare
orange accents. SVG plus transparent PNG at 1x, 2x and 4x.

Recon Dialogue Kit is a set of 7 dialogue components drawn in the field kit
style, where stencilled panels with squared corners, a bone trace and exactly
one signal colour. It contains a speech box with a tail, a speaker name plate,
dim and bright continue indicators, idle and selected choice rows and a
tooltip panel.

A dialogue box is the single most-read surface in a story game, and it is not
the same thing as a window panel: it needs a tail that points at whoever is
talking, a name plate that sits on top of it without covering the first line,
and a continue indicator with two frames so the engine can blink it.

No glow and no gradient anywhere: a painted crate does not glow, and the
restraint is the whole look. The silhouettes stay close to the rectangle and
earn their difference from stepped shoulders and edge rails rather than from
cuts, which is how stencilled field markings actually behave.

Inside that style this is the Recon reading of it: a dark interface on a
gunmetal palette with flare orange accents, built around a single bordered
frame, chamfered buttons at 116x32, hollow-cored bars divided into 20
segments, and two-tone icons on a 16px grid. Those measurements are why two
families can share an art style without being interchangeable: the style
decides how an edge is drawn, the numbers decide what the interface is for.

The selected choice row is marked by an indent and a pointer rather than by a
colour change, so the state survives a colourblind mode and a greyscale
shader. That matters more here than anywhere else: choosing the wrong dialogue
option is a mistake a player cannot undo.

Every sprite ships as an editable SVG and as transparent PNG at 1x, 2x and 4x,
so you can drop the PNGs straight into an engine or open the vector and change
a colour. Built to the same measurements as the rest of the Recon family,
which means this kit and the Recon panel kit line up without either being
resized. A good fit for tactical, survival and military interfaces.

HOW TO USE

  - Nine-slice the dialogue box on its flat regions and leave the tail in the
    fixed corner, or it stretches into a wedge when the box grows.
  - Blink the continue indicator by alternating the dim and bright frames at
    about 2 Hz — the two frames exist so you do not have to tint one at
    runtime.
  - Anchor the name plate to the top-left of the dialogue box with a negative
    offset of about half its height so it overlaps the frame.
