Hello!

I'm having an issue where the NPC subtitle text sometimes overlaps itself, I'm not sure what the cause is since it's just sometimes.
When text shows up it types out [SUCCESS] but then the rest of the phrase starts from the beginning overlapping that word, you can see examples in the attachments.

I had had this happen before and what I did was I rewrote the dialogue text until it stopped happening, but I can't do that every time this happens.
Is there something I'm missing between conversation nodes that cause this to happen?

Hi,

Then usually happens when TextMesh Pro (and possibly Text) sees a carriage return character (CR) without a line feed (LF), If you're pasting in text from some other source, make sure it has a carriage return and a line feed. If you enter text directly into the Dialogue Editor's Dialogue Text field, it shouldn't do that. Let me know if it does.

Thank you, Tony. Seems every time I come here with a question you come back with not only a solution but some crucial information as well, always super helpful. Thanks again!

Glad to help!
