You need to replace your DialogueSystemTrigger component with CustomDialogueSystemTrigger (or whatever you decided to call your subclass). Then change this line in your sequencer command:

Code: Select all

DialogueSystemTrigger dialogueTrigger = FindObjectOfType<DialogueSystemTrigger>();

to:

Code: Select all

CustomDialogueSystemTrigger dialogueTrigger = FindObjectOfType<CustomDialogueSystemTrigger>();

Hey Tony, sorry for taking so long, but it seems I made something wrong with the subclass, because inside my sequencer, this:

Code: Select all

CustomDialogueSystemTrigger dialogueTrigger = FindObjectOfType<CustomDialogueSystemTrigger>();

Still gives me a missing reference.

My subclass is set up like this:

Code: Select all

using UnityEngine;

namespace PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem.Wrappers
{

    public class CustomDialogueSystemTrigger : DialogueSystemTrigger
    {
        public static DialogueSystemTrigger LastInteractedDialogueSystemTrigger = null;

        protected override void DoConversationAction(Transform actor)
        {
            LastInteractedDialogueSystemTrigger = this;
            base.DoConversationAction(actor);
        }
    }
}

Replacing the Dialogue System Trigger worked I guess, it looks fine in the inspector. (Attached image)

Hi,

Remove ".Wrappers" from:

Code: Select all

namespace PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem.Wrappers

Posted: **Thu May 06, 2021 6:41 pm**

Hello Tony, it seems removing '.Wrappers' did not work, still missing reference.

'CustomDialogueSystemTrigger' does not contain a definition for 'LastInteractedSystemTrigger'

How my Custom Dialogue System Trigger is set up:

Code: Select all

using UnityEngine;

namespace PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem
{

    public class CustomDialogueSystemTrigger : DialogueSystemTrigger
    {
        public static DialogueSystemTrigger LastInteractedDialogueSystemTrigger = null;

        protected override void DoConversationAction(Transform actor)
        {
            LastInteractedDialogueSystemTrigger = this;
            base.DoConversationAction(actor);
        }
    }
}

How the sequencer is set up:

Code: Select all

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem;

namespace PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem.SequencerCommands
{

    public class SequencerCommandReenableDialogue : SequencerCommand
    { // Rename to SequencerCommand<YourCommand>

        public void Awake()
        {

            CustomDialogueSystemTrigger dialogueTrigger = FindObjectOfType<CustomDialogueSystemTrigger>();

            dialogueTrigger.LastInteractedSystemTrigger.enabled = true; //Missing reference.

            Stop();
        }

    }

}

Hi,

Is dialogueTrigger or dialogueTrigger.LastInteractedSystemTrigger null? Check both before using them. I'm guessing that dialogueTrigger.LastInteractedSystemTrigger is null. Maybe change the line to:

Code: Select all

if (dialogueTrigger != null && dialogueTrigger.LastInteractedSystemTrigger != null)
{
    dialogueTrigger.LastInteractedSystemTrigger.enabled = true;
}

or, in newer versions of Unity that use later versions of C#:

Code: Select all

dialogueTrigger?.LastInteractedSystemTrigger?.enabled = true;

Its ' dialogueTrigger.LastInteractedSystemTrigger ' that is missing for some unknown reason.

Your custom script defines LastInteractedSystemTrigger to be null, so it will be null in Awake. In fact, you don't need that Awake method at all.

Sorry I dont get it, the script that contains an Awake method doesn't set LastInteractedSystemTrigger as null, and you said I dont need this Awake method (The only Awake() present in those two scripts we are looking at):

Code: Select all

public class SequencerCommandReenableDialogue : SequencerCommand
    { // Rename to SequencerCommand<YourCommand>

        public void Awake()
        {

            CustomDialogueSystemTrigger dialogueTrigger = FindObjectOfType<CustomDialogueSystemTrigger>();

            dialogueTrigger.LastInteractedSystemTrigger.enabled = true; //Still does not contain a definition for LastInteractedSystemTrigger.

            Stop();
        }

    }

Where would the Sequencer Command run if I remove this Awake method?

Regarding setting the LastInteractedSystemTrigger as null Inside my Custom Dialogue System Trigger, I changed this line:

Code: Select all

public static DialogueSystemTrigger LastInteractedDialogueSystemTrigger = null;

To

Code: Select all

public static DialogueSystemTrigger LastInteractedDialogueSystemTrigger;

And still got no definition for LastInteractedSystemTrigger.

Sorry, scratch my entire last message. I misread your previous posts and thought Awake was in your CustomDialogueSystemTrigger.

Try changing your sequence command script to:

Code: Select all

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem;

namespace PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem.SequencerCommands
{
    public class SequencerCommandReenableDialogue : SequencerCommand
    {
        public void Awake()
        {
            CustomDialogueSystemTrigger.LastInteractedSystemTrigger?.enabled = true;
            Stop();
        }
    }
}

(Note that question mark that implicitly checks if LastInteractedSystemTrigger is null.)

If that doesn't work, try adding some Debug.Log lines to both scripts:

Code: Select all

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem;

namespace PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem.SequencerCommands
{
    public class SequencerCommandReenableDialogue : SequencerCommand
    {
        public void Awake()
        {
            Debug.Log("Re-enabling: " + CustomDialogueSystemTrigger.LastInteractedSystemTrigger, CustomDialogueSystemTrigger.LastInteractedSystemTrigger);
            CustomDialogueSystemTrigger.LastInteractedSystemTrigger?.enabled = true;
            Stop();
        }
    }
}

and:

Code: Select all

using UnityEngine;

namespace PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem
{
    public class CustomDialogueSystemTrigger : DialogueSystemTrigger
    {
        public static DialogueSystemTrigger LastInteractedDialogueSystemTrigger = null;

        protected override void DoConversationAction(Transform actor)
        {
            Debug.Log("Recording LastInteractedDialogueSystemTrigger = " + this);
            LastInteractedDialogueSystemTrigger = this;
            base.DoConversationAction(actor);
        }
    }
}

I think that adding console debugs for this won't do much since the game cannot compile with or without those changes.

Assets\Scripts\Sequencer\SequencerCommandReenableDialogue.cs(12,69): error CS0117: 'CustomDialogueSystemTrigger' does not contain a definition for 'LastInteractedSystemTrigger'
