- What do you want to achieve?
NPC Chat Dialogue to do each message individually for each character using the correct settings.
- What is the issue?
https://gyazo.com/0facabf3e8a3568518218270733b36e0
For some reason the chat is getting repeated, and It broke after switching from ALL npcs to saying the same thing to INDIVIDUAL npcs saying a different thing.
- What solutions have you tried so far?
Taking a look at my code I tried fixing the local lastMessage and seeing why it is repeating the 0, and staying on the first message set.
Everything works, but the chat is getting repeated.
What I think is the problem :
npc.lastMessage = npc.lastMessage + math.floor(#SETTINGS.MessagesTwin/#npcs)
I best believe that the math.floor(#SETTINGS.MessagesTwin/#npcs) is the problem. Reason being its checking all of the NPCS instead of just the one npc, but I tried changing #npcs to #npc and it didn’t make a difference.
Here is the full code -

What could be the problem here, it’s really confusing me because it was working at first but now broke because I made the NPCS individual?
