Conversation between two NPCs

[TilmanAtChatterbug]

What is the best practice to set up a conversation between two NPCs that does not require any user input?

Hi,

Make sure the conversation's dialogue entry nodes are assigned to NPCs (i.e., actors whose 'Is Player' checkbox is unticked). The easiest way is to click on blank canvas space to view the conversation's properties. Make sure the conversation's Actor and Conversant dropdowns are both sets to NPCs. When you add new nodes, they'll automatically alternate between the two NPCs.

If you normally require the player to click a continue button to advance each subtitle, you can tick the conversation's Override Display Settings and override the continue button setting for that conversation.
