Single line conversation without player click

I'm a newbie so not sure best way to do this:

Some conversations only have just a line with no player choices.

ie:
NPC - Can I help you?
Player - We're here to see Detective xxx?
NPC - Your names?
Player - Smith

I like to zoom in on the char and display the line, wait a bit and go to next entry without action by the user.

Is that possible or does the user always need to click the response?

Thanks John

Hi John,

Inspect the Dialogue Manager, and UNtick Display Settings > Input Settings > Always Force Response Menu.

If you then want to force a response menu for a specific single response, add the [f] (force) markup tag to its Dialogue Text or Menu Text.

If I untick Always Force Response Menu the conversation just skips every conversation entry in which the conversation actor speaks. I have tried setting up a new dialogue with the wizzard but the problem still remains.

Hi,

Inspect the Dialogue Manager, and tick Display Settings > Subtitle Settings > Show PC Subtitles During Line.
