Repeat current dialogue node

What is the best way to set a node to repeat itself via code? This is to give the option to hear the audio a second time.

Hi,
You can tell the conversation controller to re-run the current state:
Code: Select all
DialogueManager.conversationController.GotoState(DialogueManager.currentConversationState);

The GotoState function looks like it should work (I checked with Debug statements), but unfortunately it still isn't replaying the audio associated with a state. I'm not sure where/how the system is playing audio, but there must be something preventing it from working. Please let me know if you have an suggestions on where to look! Thanks.

Hi,
How are you playing the audio? Are you using an Audio/AudioWait() sequencer command? Here's an example:
DS_RepeatLineExample_2022-08-19.unitypackage
It's a modified version of DemoScene1 with this script:
Code: Select all
using UnityEngine;
using PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem;
public class RepeatLineExample : MonoBehaviour
{
public void RepeatLine()
{
DialogueManager.conversationController.GotoState(DialogueManager.currentConversationState);
}
}
Talk to Private Hart and click the Repeat button to repeat the current dialogue node.

I'm using AudioWait(entrytaglocal);
Thanks for the tip - I will check the demo scene.

I can't see a repeat scene function in the demo scene. I am using a slightly older version of the Dialogue System - was this feature added recently?

Hi,
After you import the package, the scene will be located in Assets / Dialogue System Examples / Repeat Line Example. The scene is named "Repeat Line Example".
You'll know that you're playing it instead of the original DemoScene1 because it uses the gray Basic Standard Dialogue UI:

Is it one of these packages?
https://www.pixelcrushers.com/dialogue- ... em-extras/ - I can't see it in the latest version.
