Warm Up Conversation Controller shows menu on start

Post by Ultroman »

When I tick "Warm Up Conversation Controller", then when I start my game it fades in my default dialogue UI and then promptly fades it out again. I'm guessing that's not intended behaviour, though I understand that the canvases etc. probably need to be shown for a frame in order to be cached or something. Just letting you know if you didn't know. It happened with a near-default DialogueManager and Basic Standard Dialogue UI or whatever.

Hi,

It shouldn't be visible. Does your Dialogue Manager's Canvas have a disabled Canvas Group component by any chance?

It does not. More specifically, the Image component on the "Text Panel" GameObject is the only thing which becomes visible by fading in and then fades out again.

That's odd. Does it have a separate Canvas component?

I recommend unticking Warm Up Conversation Controller for now. If you'd like me to identify why it's appearing in your project, please feel free to send a reproduction project to tony (at) pixelcrushers.com.

Thanks! I replied to your email with a patch that should address the issue. The fix will also be in the next release version.
