Using Convai plugin version 4.0.0-beta.15. This is what the Send Text blueprint node looks like:
In the documentation here, there are other parameters shown for this node, specifically the “Voice Response” parameter that I would like to turn off. Is this no longer available, or in a different version?
Which documentation page were you checking? Could you please share the link so we can review it?
That documentation is for an older version and is not currently public for the new version.
We will publish updated documentation for the new version in the future.
Since there is no longer a “Voice Response” parameter to turn off, is there another way to send text to a chatbot and have it respond with just a text and not speak?
What I’m trying to do: I have a character in a game that I’m trying to convince to go to the doctor. I need a way to determine if it’s convinced. So I was trying to send it a text message and hopefully get just a Yes or No text response that I could parse. Or is there another way to find this out?
Yes, this use case should be possible with Actions.
You can create an action such as Convinced, and add a string parameter with two possible values: Yes and No. With a clear action description, the character can trigger this action when it determines whether it has been convinced or not.
For example, the action could be used when the character has made a decision about going to the doctor, and the parameter can return whether the result is Yes or No. Your game logic can then parse that action result and respond accordingly.
