Dialog Problems

I am very new to dialog things. So i made a dialog that when you choose a button in the dialog, you become a different race. But the problem i have is whenever i start up the map to test (i set the activation time for the dialog at .10) it just darkens the screen and lets me do nothing. Does anyone know why?

I actually figured it out. I had another dialog that it used and i made it wrong. So i had to delete that dialog and use the correct one. But now it is fixed. Thank you for all that helped me.

Show the trigger.
  • Dialog Box
    • Events
      • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.10 seconds
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Dialog - Change the title of dialog to Choose Your Race
      • Dialog - Create a dialog button for dialog labelled Human
      • Set Human = (Last created dialog Button)
      • Dialog - Create a dialog button for dialog labelled Orc
      • Set orc = (Last created dialog Button)
      • Dialog - Show dialog for Player 2 (Blue)
I disabled the trigger so i could test other things in the mean time, but here is where i found the problem. When i disabled the trigger the screen wouldn't darken and i could be able to do stuff.
 
I just tested the trigger you made myself, and it didn't darken the screen for me and I could still do anything. Maybe you have other triggers that cause it, as this doesn't seem to be the problem.

Also, a tip. Instead of making a variable for each race, make one variable as a dialog button and make it an array, then do Set Racebutton[1] = last button, etc. and use the event/conditions referring to that set of number. It'll make it easier, and uses only one variable.
