Help: Can we prevent character transition skipping?

Post by AntonioA »

Double clicking or pressing enter ends the printer text animation and ALSO ends the character (@char) transition animation without the transition/easing (that I've set a time:1.0 for).

Is there some way to prevent continue/skipping globally for character transitions ONLY and not for the printer?
(This almost works by setting @processInput to false before the @char transition and @processInput to true after; but this isn't an elegant solution since it needs to be set every single time and also doesn't process input for the printer)

Would greatly appreciate the help.

Note: I've only tried this in the webgl sandbox so far. If there is a quick solution to this, would purchase immediately.

Hello, what you are describing might be possible by disabling Complete On Continue in the Script Player Config. (Description: "Whether to instantly complete blocking (wait:true) commands performed over time (eg, animations, hide/reveal, tint changes, etc) when Continue input is activated").

If it doesn't suit your needs then it can always be overriden or modified via C#.

Thank you for the reply.
I've seen that option in the docs. But can that be done just for the @char transitions, as I would like the printer text transitions to behave as it does currently (with the animations completing on double clicking).

Would really appreciate some help on whether it can be done and how difficult it is (for @char alone).

It should be possible by overriding @char command and ignoring cancellationToken.CancelLazy conditions. Here is the guide on overriding built-in commands: https://naninovel.com/guide/custom-comm ... in-command

Thanks so much. Will try that out.
