Cinematic/Tutorial issues on multiplayer

[MrFrichyBoy]

Hi I have this optional tutorial at the start of my game, it works and plays perfect on single player. Whenever I try to play the tutorial with multiple people in the game, it speed runs through the entire cinematic. Any tips on how to fix this?

Are you sure it's speed run and not the camera not being placed correct for other players?

Yes because the camera angles don’t change, it just goes through each cinematic shoot way too fast when multiple players are playing the game, not when you play by just yourself .

I'd say it's the "add 0 second", why not set the duration to X seconds depending on the length of the message?

I just tried that and it simply adds the wait time to the default length of each transmission when playing solo. So the cinematic ends up taking twice as long when playing by just yourself. It might work for multiplayer, but I need it work for both solo and when you are playing with multiple people.

Use Set instead of Add

Worked perfectly, can't believe I overlooked this. Thank you!
