Hi,

I love using the dialogue system plugin for Unity!

I have a question: during the same conversation I would like to activate the response timout for some dialogues and for some others I would like to deactivate it.

What is the best way to do it? Is it possible to do it directly in the Conversation ispector or do I need a specific script (which one and where I need to attach it?)?

Thank you in advance!

Hi,

Thanks for using the Dialogue System!

You don't need to do any scripting.

Use the SetTimeout() sequencer command.

For example, in the screenshot below, the node "What is 1+1?" sets a 5-second timeout for the next response menu. Afterward, the node "More dialogue..." deactivates timeouts.



The {{default}} tells the node to also play the Dialogue Manager's Default Sequence, which usually delays for a duration to give the player time to read the subtitle. You can read more about sequences here: Cutscene Sequences.

Thank you. It works great!!!

Glad to help!
