I want to change the character ID based on the selection in the lobby menu.

In version 5.6, this worked perfectly. After upgrading to version 5.7 with the latest Convai 4.18, it no longer works.

I tested using a backup of version 5.6, and it still works there. But after upgrading, it stops working.

Even assigning the character ID manually does not work. However, if I set the character directly in the details panel, it works correctly.

When I assign it through the menu, it shows as disconnected.

Hello,

Welcome to the Convai Developer Forum!

After updating the character ID, please call Stop Session and then Start Session on the Chatbot component, with a small delay of around 1 second between the two calls.

This will reinitialize the connection using the new character ID.
