Both Character dialogue names active

Hey,
I'm running into an issue where if you press the "Continue" button(In my case, pressing Z) fast enough, both character portrait names will be active. I'm not sure why this is.

Hi,
It really depends on how your dialogue UI is set up. Try ticking the subtitle panels' Wait For Close checkboxes.
If that doesn't address the issue, you could always configure each subtitle panel's OnFocus() event to deactivate the other panels' portrait names.
If that doesn't do it, feel free to send a
reproduction project to tony (at) pixelcrushers.com. I'd be happy to take a look.

Hey!
I tried both options you suggested and it doesn't seem to do it. I'll send a copy of the project to the email you provided.

Thanks for your reply Tony,
I looked through what you mentioned.
I'm using Cinemachine in this project, but I seem to get some compile errors.

Hi,
Since you're using the Dialogue System's assembly definition files, you need to add Cinemachine's asmdef to the DialogueSystem asmdef:

Awesome! Ok one more thing. The dialogue system I saved as a variant seems to look like this

But when I play the game, it looks like this

I remember you mentioned to save this as a variant before the update, but I'm unsure why this is occurring

Hi,
You may need to pull your original customized version from your backup or version control. First, try using the VN Template Standard Dialogue UI included with the Dialogue System. You may need to set your Dialogue Manager's Subtitle Settings > Continue Button mode to Always and add a UI Button Key Trigger to the continue button to map the 'Z' key to it. Once you've confirmed that it works correctly (both portrait names don't become active at the same time), you can either customize a copy of it to look like your UI, or you can retrieve a copy of your old UI and make sure it's set up like the VN Template Standard Dialogue UI prefab.
