Title: .Talk line stops when changing scene.
Post by: redfox on September 05, 2010, 08:49:59 PM

I have a game global object / entity set,  up to use subtitles. But when I change scene the line is cut off - the subtitle goes and the audio line is cut off.

I have a game created object (rather than an actor), and am not using a scene object.

How can I make a global talk line (from the string.tab) which won’t cut out when the scene changes?
I want to keep the subtitle and the audio string files playing over the next scenes.
 
Many Thanks

This is by design. All game objects are reset during the scene transition, otherwise all kinds of bad things would happen (although admittedly talking probably wouldn't need resetting).
I don't know what you're trying to achieve, but if you need temporary background changes or something like that, perhaps it would be enough to load different images into the existing scene?
