I think I've run into a new problem.  Anytime DSU runs the same exact dialogue twice in a row, the text animator will think DSU wants to display an empty string on the second attempt to play dialogue.

As far as I know, DSU will set the text mesh pro like this:

Play Conversation
TMP.text = "new text";
...
TextAnimator animates and calls OnTextShowed (which I have hooked up to SequencerMessages.Typed for DSU's benefit)
...
TMP.text = "";
...

At least that's how I understand it.  Maybe Tony can correct me if I'm wrong.  

What I'm seeing is that when I try to play the same single option conversation twice in a row, the second time will halt permanently.

So I stepped through the code and saw this in TextAnimator:
"""
        private void Update()
        {
            //TMPRO's text changed, setting the text again
            if (!tmproText.text.Equals(text))
            {
                //trigers anim player
                if (triggerAnimPlayerOnChange && tAnimPlayer != null)
                {
                    tAnimPlayer.ShowText(tmproText.text);
                }
                else //user is typing from TMPro
                {
                    _SyncText(tmproText.text, ShowTextMode.UserTyping);
                }

                return;
"""            

First Invocation:
text == null
tmproText.text == "new text"

Second Invocation:
text == "new text"
tmproText.text == ""

And so on the second invocation, OnTextShowed is never called and so DSfU hangs there forever waiting for its message to be typed (which will never happen).  So maybe "text" is never cleared up? 

Code: Select all

        private void _SyncText(string text, ShowTextMode showTextMode)
        {
            BuildTagsDatabase();

            //Prevents to calculate everything for an empty text
            if (text.Length <= 0)
            {
                hasText = false;
                text = string.Empty;
                _tmproText.text = string.Empty;
                tmproText.ClearMesh();
                return;
            }

            if (triggerAnimPlayerOnChange) { text += " "; } // <----------- CUSTOM CHANGE
