Continuing conversation after pressing resume button on pause

Post by IKiea »

Hi, I'm still relatively new at this, but I have been having trouble after hitting the pause button(esc) and then pressing resume button that my conversations don't continue at all.

Hi,

What are you using to pause the game? Are you using the Dialogue System's Menu Framework addon? If so, here's how I configured it in a test:

In the Start scene:
  • On the Menu System GameObject's Pause component, UNticked Block During Conversations.
  • On the Dialogue Manager GameObject:
    • Set Display Settings > Input Settings > Cancel Subtitle Input and Cancel Conversation Input > Key to None.
    • Set Other Settings > Dialogue Time Mode to Gameplay so it will observe pausing when setting Time Scale to 0.
Then I played the Start scene, started gameplay, and talked to Private Hart. While Private Hart was saying his line, I pressed Esc to open the pause menu. The conversation paused. Then I pressed Esc again to close the pause menu, and the conversation resumed.
