UCC - how to show character/object name on interact message?

[OddMan2]

hello, i can't figure out how to show the actor name in the interact ability message.
From what i understand, this should be the default behavior but if i set "TALK TO: {0}" as the ability message it just shows "TALK TO:", without the name.

What could i be missing?

Thank you

This is a general UCC interaction feature, which I mention because you can use it for more than just Dialogue System interaction.

The "{0}" depends on the interactable (e.g., NPC) having a script that implements UCC's IInteractableMessage interface, as described on this UCC documentation page.

Here's an updated DialogueSystemTriggerInteractableTarget that implements IInteractableMessage so you don't have to write one.

I'll send off the updated full integration package to Opsive, too.

Thank you for your reply,
In the meantime i came to the same conclusion and i was writing my interactable target script but you beat me to it!
Great support as always.
