Actions - Is the None action necessary?

Original Discord Post by nazbee | 2024-08-28 18:02:04

I’m not using any of the default actions on my character (just a custom “Dance” action right now), so I deleted them.

But I wonder if the “None” action is necessary or not? Everything seems to work fine so far without it. Can you explain when the “None” action would be called?

In my notes I found this from awhile back but I still don’t quite understand it:

“Currently, the plugin attempts to match the received action with the ones you’ve written. If it can’t find “gaming chair” or “lamp,” it returns “None” as an action, then looks for the nearest similar action, which in this case is “lamp.” To fix this, you should add a “None” action and define your actions more specifically. For example, use “Demonstrate ” as the action and include two objects: “lamp” and “gaming chair”.”

<@1124731510013050991> select the pawn root (Self), not the ConvaiChatbot component

<@1124731510013050991> couple things:

  1. You look like you’re using a very old convai plugin version, because the ConvaiOVRLipSync has been deprecated awhile back and replaced by ConvaiFaceSync
  2. Are you sure youre looking in the right place? If “Convai Info” section still doesnt show up on the root BP_Vivian2 when selected, in Plugins/Convai maybe try checking the “Enable New Action System (Experimental)”. If it still doesnt show up, maybe its because youre using an outdated convai verson.
  3. Please just post in one support thread (your own) next time
