Can I have an actor call a bark that goes
Bark 1 then Bark 2, 3, or 4?
it seems barks do not continue it's sequence.

If barks can't do that and I have to use conversations, can there ever be more than one conversation at a time? I would essentially need to use conversations as barks.

Hi,

Barks can continue sequences if you structure the bark conversation like this:

and set Bark Order to Sequential:

Ok that makes sense.

But I can't have a single bark call do that?

If i wanted to always start with "Hello", but end with "How are you", "Good morning", or "Nice to see you", can I do that with a bark call?

No, barks are by definition one-liners. If you want to show more than one dialogue entry, run a conversation instead.
