The continue button doesn't matter if it's showing the node as a response button.

Make sure the node is assigned to an actor that isn't a player.

If you want single player nodes to show as subtitles instead of response buttons, see: How To: Bypass Response Menu When Player Has One Choice

Any thoughts about why i can only see blue nodes? I just created like 10 nodes, 5 of each and the only gets visible on the blue ones.
I don't get it.
I get no console error.

Finally I got dialoged going on but sadly only with blue ones (player)

Does the conversation in DemoScene1 work properly? If so, please compare.

Look Tony

I paused the game and can see the NPC node is active but everything is greyed out in the hierarchy panel. ??
I don't know what's going on. I tried creating a new database , starting from scratch but end up the same.

Ahhhhh.

I went into the specific convesation node tree. Clicked on the grey area, then on my right panel i checked of "Override Display settings and Subtile Settings"

NOW IT WORKS!!!!!! I can see NPC......... Why is this the cause or the solution?? Un my particluar case? Becuase i tried open up a whole new project another unity instance and setup same way and here works fine without those checked off?

Thank you Tony

On your Dialogue Manager GameObject, is Subtitle Settings > Show NPC Subtitles During Line UNticked? If so, this means it won't show NPC subtitles. But since you've overriddden it for this conversation, the override will take precedence and show the NPC subtitles.
