Hello, friends!
I'm not the best with dialogue formatting. If you aren't using a dialogue tag and you have an action after some dialogue, do you use a comma still at the end of the dialogue and before the action? I've been using a period. Here's an example. I highlighted the part in question in red.
“No sir, you’ve been a great help. Maybe one day I can come down here and you can tell me about some of the adventures you’ve been on.” Dal pocketed the map device, waved good bye to the old man and stepped out the door.
