NPC Getting Assigned to Actor and Conversant on Conversation Start?
Posted: Sat Jun 17, 2023 5:50 pm
I can't figure this out, I have made sure that I have the correct actors assigned to the dialogue nodes in the conversation. However, when it comes time for the player to respond, I get the NPC portrait and name on the left over the top of the non-focused Player Character portrait.
I ran this conversation with the info mode turned on and this is what I'm seeing at the start of the conversation, and I can't figure out why, but I'm thinking it might have something to do with the Corgi Engine?
First, I see that the player character is getting registered as the correct actor from the dialogue database:
Then, when I initiate conversation, by entering NPC_01's conversation zone, and pressing the interact button, I get this:
But then I can see that for some reason both the actor and the conversant are getting assigned as 'NPC_01', when the conversation in the database definitely says the actor should be 'Protagonist':
Just a couple of things I've tried, to no avail:

I made sure the conversation zone doesn't have overrides for the Actor or the Conversant
There is a Dialogue System Corgi Event Listener on my Dialogue Manager (should this component be on anything else in my scene? Characters? Conversation Zones?)
