You must enter the conversation script name in the line ConvScriptName not ScriptName. The same goes for the starting order, put it in ConvOrder not SpawnOrder. ScriptName & SpawnOrder specify a different script & order for the Pawn's behaviour.

You'll notice in QOD's shots, he has "Start" in 2 places. ConvOrder and SpawnOrder. It is also capitalized. I do not know if it is case sensitive, but it never hurts to match up.

you have to have a spawn order. the spawn order is the first order the script runs.

That depends on your script. As darksmaster said SpawnOrder is the first order in your script that is executed when the Pawn is spawned in the level. How you name it is up to you.

Hi,
I have the same problem: When using multiple conversations the replies of the previous conversations never disappear. It seems like the tree builder can not handle more than one conversation. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Simon

Using a bigger background image solves the issue. It should be big enough to contain both the speach and the replies. The image is refreshed after each conversation so that the replies can't overlap any more.
