Setting Barks to Random by Script Doesn't Work

Hello- I have a character with a dialogue system trigger on them. Trigger = On Use. The action includes Barks. I have a script that eventually changes the bark conversation values in the following way: milo.GetComponent<DialogueSystemTrigger>().barkConversation = "Homestead/Act 1/Milo/Generic B...

Typewriter Pause Durations conflict with subtitle chars per second

Hello! I'd like to match my typewriter effect perfectly with my subtitle chars per second setting, even with half/full pause characters. I have followed both https://pixelcrushers.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=5715 and https://www.pixelcrushers.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=7819 to try to achieve this. The ...

Re: Stop typewriter effect + show player responses (but do not force continue)

Thanks for putting this together! The only difference with your example and what I'm looking for is that, in your example, you have click the continue button twice in a row before the response menu shows up. I only want the continue button to need to be pressed when there won't be a player response ...

Re: Stop typewriter effect + show player responses (but do not force continue)

Thanks for the input so far! I think, to put another way, what I can't replicate using these methods is making the 'Continue' button functionally equivalent to a response menu when two NPCs are talking to each other. My hope is to replace all the player '...' conversation nodes below with a continue...

Stop typewriter effect + show player responses (but do not force continue)

Hello! My goal: I want to give players a way to skip/fast forward through the typewriter effect by pressing spacebar. I would like this to either: finish out the current line of dialogue + immediately show the player response options, or (if no response options are between lines), still force the pl...

Re: All new conversations throw SimStatus field Lookup Error

Hey Tony - no need to worry about this one (we can probably delete). Looks like it had something strange to do with how I have my slotted save games set up (using EasySave3 mixed with the Dialogue System Saver) - launching within the scene appears to be doing something wonky when loading in my Dialo...

Re: All new conversations throw SimStatus field Lookup Error

Thanks for the speedy reply! I am indeed using SimStatus, so I can use the the [em#] tag to track previously chosen dialogue options and grey them slightly. The initialize new variables checkbox is also ticked. Interestingly, most of my old conversations still work (including using the SimStatus), i...

All new conversations throw SimStatus field Lookup Error

Hello! I've written multiple conversations for my game, and they all have worked great. I recently upgraded desktops, and while previous conversations still work great, every single new one I've tried to create throws this error for every single node: Dialogue System: Lua code 'return Conversation[ ...

Active Speaker Overhead Indicator

Hey! I am not using text-bubble based dialogue in my game (I'm essentially using the base WRPG type template). With that, I was wondering if there was a relatively easy built-in way to show an indicator (not a quest indicator) over the current speaking actor's head (like the icon of a speech bubble ...
