I am trying to get my text/dialogue to display the Conversant or Actor name but using [var=Conversant] is not working for me:

Here is the dialogue tree:


Here is what is displaying when playing Timeline:


I am not sure what I am doing wrong on this one, as I have tried var=actor and conversant with no results really.

Hi,

Inspect your conversation and select Menu > Conversation Properties. The actor assigned to the Conversant dropdown will provide the value of [var=Conversant].

[var=Actor] and [var=Conversant] are the conversation's primary actor and conversant. They're static through the entire conversation. They don't change with every dialogue entry node.

That got it working. Thanks Tony!

Glad to help!
