View Full Version : Dialog broken on one of my campaigns.

After the 5.1 update, dialog for a speaker would no longer show the select ID in the chatlog as the speaker. Only GM:.

I removed all extensions from one of my campaigns and this feature started working again (after replacing NPCs in the CT). I then added all the extensions back in and dialog still worked, showing the correct, selected ID from the drop-down.

EXCEPT:

For one of my campaigns, this fix didn't work. I removed all extensions and dialog will still only show GM: as the speaker and not the selected ID regardless of how I put an ID in the drop-down.

I reloaded and flushed the db. Nothing seems to fix this one particular campaign.

This campaign relies heavily on the dialog showing the correct speaker because this campaign is 100% text for deaf players. A secondary voice option like Discord isn't an option.

What a ridiculously small limit on .zip file uploads. Less than 10K? What decade is this, the 1980s?

Is this using the /id command? If so that does seem to be broken and was reported earlier. Moon Wizard is looking into it. If not that issue then can you give us a step by step and wouldn’t be a bad idea to put your zipped up campaign in Dropbox or similar and post a link to it here.

How are you “putting the ID into the dropdown”?

If /id like Zacc mentioned, I’ll be looking at that very soon.

It doesn't work using /id, the speak as button for PC or NPC records, or by advancing turns on the combat tracker with the setting to make the current actor the speaker in chat. Campaign is uploaded here: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/cz370zn4669wula4hab6d/Mith-ic-Times.zip?rlkey=w2howuhvlfjvtuwugx0i4aaqs&st=bxcncix4&dl=0

So, straightforward speaking by hitting enter and /mood don't work, but /emote does work.

You're running 21 different third party extensions; are you seeing this without any extensions loaded?

We had to change the way the chat system worked to support the new speech system so any extensions that mess with the chat system can break behaviors.
