Ink selected response displayed twice

Post by pmand »

I am using the bubble dialogue in my game. The problem occurs during ink conversation with response menu.
This is the ink file:

Code: Select all

GhostGirl: Shall we go now?
	* [No] Player: Maybe later.
	* [Yes] Player: Sure thing!
	GhostGirl: Awesome!
	Player: No problem!

 -> END
During play time, this is what happens:
- A response menu is displayed with two bubbles "Yes" and "No"
- I click the "Yes" bubble
- The menu disappears, and a subtitle bubble pops up with "Yes" in it.
- I click my mouse to continue.
- Another subtitle bubble pops up with "Sure thing!" in it

It seems that Dialogue System displays the response bubble twice (both "Yes" and "Sure thing!").
Is there a way to make it show response just 1 time (just the "Sure thing!") ?
Thanks!

Hi,

I'll update the Ink integration to handle "silent" menu choices in square brackets. I'll try to post a patch here by tomorrow.

Hi,

The patch may be delayed a few days. I had a death in the family that's causing some work delays.

Hi,

I've finally had a chance to dig into this, and we already added a checkbox "Player Dialogue Text Follows Response Text" to handle this. Please try ticking this checkbox and let me know if it resolves your issue.
