Hi Tony.
Usually in games, for example Elden Ring or Dark Souls, an NPC has many conversations.
When you finish a conversation with an NPC and talk to him again, a different conversation starts and this can be repeated until the last conversation. The last conversation is the one that loops.

Basically, now I just have that "last" conversation loopable. How can I make previous conversations no longer accessible once they have been played and only the last conversation is loopable?

Hi, Tony. One question more. I add a "Shuffle Responses" component to my Dialogue Manager. It works perfectyl, but I want some dialogues without shuffle. How do I do it?

And... how to call Scene Event after some time or delay?

You could add a custom field to your dialogue entry template to specify whether it should shuffle the responses or not. (See Template.) In an OnConversationResponseMenu() method, check the current dialogue entry's field. Example:

Code: Select all

void OnConversationResponseMenu(Response[] responses)
{
    var currentEntry = DialogueManager.currentConversationState.subtitle.dialogueEntry;
    if (Field.LookupBool(currentEntry.fields, "Shuffle))
    {
        // (Shuffle responses)
    }
}

Scene Events run immediately. If you want to do something after a delay, use sequencer commands. (See Cutscene Sequence Tutorials.)
