Integrating Convai character chatbot services in Roblox game.

Overview

Roblox is an online game platform and game creation system developed by Roblox Corporation that allows users to program games and play games created by other users. This provides a perfect platform to develop games with intelligent AI-based NPCs with which the player can interact and experience a new way of story progression or gameplay altogether.

Constraints

Roblox environment doesn't support many essential features required to enjoy the power of the character API endpoints to their full potential.

Roblox doesn't allow the creation of audio files

We cannot utilize the audio response from Convai as there is no easy way to create an audio file and play it within the game.

Roblox doesn't allow microphone access

We cannot record audio from the user and pass that directly to the server for processing and generating a response. We are limited to sending only text data through the request body and receive and display only text-data from the response.
