# Emit Signal
|
||
|
![image](./Images/Event_Emit_Signal.PNG)
|
||
|
|
||
|
The `Emit Signal` event will emit the signal `dialogic_signal` of the **current dialog node** and pass the given string as an **argument**.
|
||
|
The event does NOT create a new signal!
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you instance your timeline via script, use code similar to this:
|
||
|
```gd
|
||
|
func start_dialog():
|
||
|
var dialog = Dialogic.start("my_timeline")
|
||
|
dialog.connect("dialogic_signal", self, "dialog_listener")
|
||
|
add_child(dialog)
|
||
|
|
||
|
func dialog_listener(string):
|
||
|
match string:
|
||
|
"quest_point_two":
|
||
|
# do something
|
||
|
pass
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you instanced the scene using the editor, you can connect the signal like normal in Godot from the `NODE TAB > Signals`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
*If you don't know about signals you should definitely learn about them. For example [here](https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/getting_started/step_by_step/signals.html).*
