Very start - "Goodbye" not showing

Post by kyle »

Hello,

So this is going to be a stupid question, I followed the tutorial seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8NmFF1H0wU but started a 2D project and added the 2D features to the game.

I get the message 'Hello' and it disappears after 2-3 seconds, but there is never an option to say Goodbye.

I started a fresh project to set this up which is why I am now confused as to why this is not working.

Things in scene
- NPC
- Player
- Dialogue Manager
- Canvas
- Event System
- Camera

I have the generic hello, goodbye convo as seen in the YouTube tutorial. and I have set the actor and conversant correctly as well.

Can someone inform me why the hello dialogue is not working?

Thanks!


Edit: Changing the subtitle length increases how long the hello stays on the screen, but there is no option to say goodbye

Hi,

Here are a few things to check:
  • Is there a link arrow from Hello to Goodbye?
  • Is the Goodbye node colored blue?
  • Are there any icons on the blue node -- in particular a red question mark? This indicates that the node has Conditions which could block the use of the node.
  • Is it possible that the menu is showing the Goodbye option but your screen is scaling somehow so that the menu button is offscreen?
  • Are there any errors or warnings in the Console window?
