How do I create in-game UI dialogs for StarCraft 2 maps?▼

You can create in-game SC2 UI dialogs programmatically or by hooking existing XML frames. This approach provides ready-to-use Galaxy UI patterns for generating dialogs, HUD elements, panels, and scoreboards for StarCraft II maps.

Can I hook existing XML frames to extend StarCraft 2 UI panels?▼

Yes, hooking existing XML frames allows you to create or extend SC2 UI panels. You can wire these frames into interactive controls to trigger actions, building custom hero-selection screens and scoreboards using SSF-style patterns.

What is the best way to wire a hero selection panel in SC2?▼

The best way to wire a hero selection panel in SC2 is using SSF-style patterns for programmatic dialog creation. This allows you to generate the HUD elements and hook interactive controls to trigger hero-selection actions within your map.

Do I need any external dependencies to build Galaxy UI dialogs?▼

No external dependencies are required to build Galaxy UI dialogs. You only need a SKILL.md file with a name and description in the frontmatter, alongside optional sibling directories for scripts, references, and assets.

Why use programmatic dialog creation instead of XML for SC2 UI?▼

Programmatic dialog creation in SC2 offers reusable patterns for dynamically generating dialogs and HUD elements, whereas XML frames provide static structure. Combining both allows you to hook existing frames while wiring interactive controls to trigger actions.
