### What do you need help with? Bug report ### Where in Playground did this happen? Narrative Design ### Impact Major - a core flow is broken ### Character ID 4b25d8e2-abe9-11f1-8c22-42010a7be02f ### Session ID 2d0ff378-3fe2-44f5-9826-c6c78ce5ecd3 ### Short summary When running a conversation through narrative design, some weird numbers (-1,2,6) gets added to the Response of the avatar, also in chat ### What are you trying to do? ## I am trying to implement an avatar that follows a certain script of questions, no more no less, and based on intelligence ask the follow up questions, or ask again incase the reply to the question is irrelevant. It was working 3 months ago, but now for some reason sometimes, the avatar appends some weird numbers in the responce and even speak those numbers, which is bad. In my script I had checked multiple times, there are no numbers or anything to make sure if i mistakenly prompted the avatar to speak random numbers. Can you please help/fix ### What happened? Weird number like -1.2.6 gets appended to the response of the avatar, and even avatar speak those numbers when following a narrative design. Which is weird and not expected. ### What did you expect? I expected the avatar to follow a script that i defined in the narrative design. ### Steps to reproduce not sure, it occurs sometimes ### Page URL > **[Convai Authentication](https://login.convai.com/?redirect=https%3A%2F%2Fconvai.com%2Fdashboard%2Fcharacter%2F4b25d8e2-abe9-11f1-8c22-42010a7be02f)** ### Browser Edge ### Operating system Windows ### Screenshots, screen recording, or logs ![-1sss.png](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex004/uploads/convai/original/2X/7/77899895d863b4b409f50902ef9037eacfea5402.png) ![ss-1.png](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex004/uploads/convai/original/2X/8/8f2a97dcccefc3c4cd64bab655186b5cef931944.png) ![2ss.png](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex004/uploads/convai/original/2X/7/7aaa0e9bc070bec47491248d15618afec212798b.png) ### I checked the relevant documentation, resources, and similar forum posts before posting. on ### I confirm that I did not include API keys, tokens, passwords, secrets, private character data, private conversation logs, or customer data. on ---
