Prevent Subtitle Text panel to close

Hello, I'm using your amazing asset and have a request if you don't mind.

Is there a way to prevent the Subtitle Panel from closing after reaching a node's end?
Let's say I don't want to link any conversation together. So when a conversation reaches its last entry I would like the Subtitle Panel not to disappear but to keep the text printed on the panel.

Can you help me out? Thank you!

Hi,

Try setting the last dialogue entry's Sequence to:

Code: Select all

{{default}}; WaitForMessage(Forever)
This will keep the conversation active on that dialogue entry.

If you want to allow the conversation to end but not hide the dialogue UI, do this:
  • Dialogue UI: Tick the StandardDialogueUI component > Conversation UI Elements > Don't Deactivate Main Panel.
  • Dialogue Panel: Remove the Animator. Clear the UIPanel component's Show Animation Trigger & Hide Animation Trigger fields. Untick Deactivate On Hidden.
  • Subtitle panel: Remove the Animator. Clear the StandardUISubtitlePanel component's Show Animation Trigger & Hide Animation Trigger fields. Untick Deactivate On Hidden and Clear Text On Close.
