Hi,

In your scene, the prefab asset was assigned to the Quests button. Instead, assign the scene instance:

Hi Again. Could you please tell, if there is a way to change Portrait Images for different conversation nodes? Is there a sequence ot smth?

And is therer a way to make conversation to go on by clicking "space" or other button on keyboard, or by mouse click outside "Continue" button area?

Hi,

Hi Again. Could you please tell, if there is a way to change Portrait Images for different conversation nodes? Is there a sequence or smth?

Add multiple portraits to your actor:



(The image type should be "Legacy".)

There is a number next to each portrait ([2], [3], [4], etc.). Use this in the [pic=#] markup tag, such as:

• Dialogue Text: "Hi, cutie! [pic=2]"

This will show a different portrait image for that node.

If you want to permanently change the portrait image, use the SetPortrait() sequencer command.

And is there a way to make conversation to go on by clicking "space" or other button on keyboard, or by mouse click outside "Continue" button area?

Here are a few ways:

- Make the continue button cover the entire screen. Set its Image's Color > Alpha to zero so it's invisible. Then the player can click anywhere on the screen and it will click the continue button.

- Tick the Dialogue Manager > Input Device Manager's Always Auto Focus checkbox. This will always auto-focus the continue button so Spacebar or Return will click it. However, this will always auto-focus the first response button when the response menu appears. If you don't want to do this, see below.

- Or add a UI Button Key Trigger component to the continue button, and assign a hotkey. When the player presses this hotkey, it will click the button.

Thanks!
Another questions.

How do I make to appear a response menu with only one line? So that the question could be shown in the response menu - not in subtitle.

And sometimes I want to hide Subtitle panel (those part with a portrait) so that it looked as if text goes from a narrator.

SetActive (Subtitle Panel 1,false)

works fine in the same node, I want to hide a portrait.

But

SetActive (Subtitle Panel 1,true)

doestn't restore a portrait. Neither for current node, no for next ones.

Add the [f] (force menu) markup tag to the text.

What if you set the narrator's portrait image to a blank, transparent image? This post has an image you can use.
