Can NPC-to-NPC conversations be narratively designed

I’m currently exploring how to integrate Convai into the Unreal Engine for a project, and my goal is to allow two NPCs to have autonomous conversations based on narrative design. From what I’ve learned so far, Convai supports narrative design between the player and the NPCs, but I’m wondering if it’s possible to have NPC to NPC conversations following a designed narrative.
Is such a feature currently available? If not, are there any workarounds or upcoming updates that could support this feature? Any guidance or documentation on this would be appreciated.

Afaik Convai can do NPC to NPC conversations, I know there is definitely multiple NPC’s allowed in 1 scene, pretty sure some of the sample scenes show this (this is in Unity).

Hello @18031020820,

Welcome to the Convai Developer Forum

Yes, you can absolutely use Narrative Design for NPC to NPC conversations. Since Narrative Design operates based on the incoming response, it will function properly in NPC2NPC interactions as well.

Just make sure that the initial topic in the NPC2NPC BP aligns with the Initial Section of your Narrative Design. This way, the narrative flow will trigger as expected.
