How to hide PC subtitles with response menu

Post by urrmurrmur »

Hi,

My current DSFU setup always shows the PC subtitles for the previous entry when the next one is a response menu. For instance, I sometimes have conversations structured like this:
conv_player_response.png
conv_player_response.png (36.1 KiB) Viewed 490 times
So a branching structured where every entry belongs to the player, without NPC interference. This can happen, for example, to create nested menus (e.g. first you choose the topic to talk about, then choose the question to ask about this topic).

The problem is that the subtitle for the previous node is always shown alongside the response menu, like so:
display.png
display.png (189.69 KiB) Viewed 490 times
I don't want this, I only want the response menu to be visible. Now, if the previous state entry belongs to an NPC, then there's no problem and the subtitle is hidden as expected, because the "Show NPC subtitles with response" option is unchecked in the settings:

settings.png (44.61 KiB) Viewed 490 times
The problem is no corresponding setting exists for the PC. I've also tried to check the "Skip PC subtitle after response" option, but that doesn't work. I've also tried to add an extra dialogue node without text, but with a Continue(); sequence command, but this still keeps the PC subtitle from the first state visible.

Is there some other setting I am missing?

Hi,

Try setting the PC Subtitle Panel's Visibility to Only During Content.
