I'm making a talk system for a cinematic I'm making. System uses dynamic indexing for MUI. I'm having some trouble though. Here is the video (ignore the green boarder):
2 problems:
- The first "Talk" from the commander reports a duration of 0. His text can be briefly seen but it fades immediately.
- The Center Marine is suppose to talk DURING the medic's Talk. It doesn't show at all. If I were to put off his Talk until after the Medic finishes, it will show.
Here's my triggers:
