I replied to your email with some suggested changes. Summarizing the critical ones:
  • Assign the nodes' Actor dropdowns. This specifies the speaker. (Use NPC.)
  • Use SetContinueMode(false) to temporarily disable the continue button so TextInput() can advance the conversation as soon as the player presses Enter.
  • Set the Conditions to check if a name was entered: Variable["pcName"] ~= ""
  • Use Script to set the player's Display Name: Actor["Player"].Display_Name = Variable["pcName"]

Hi Carolyn,

I replied to your email. Use "ChangeActorName" Lua function in the Dialogue System Extras page's "DiscoverNameExample".
