Conversation options not clickable

Gregorik

I'm basing my Convo system on the WalkingDead template (so UnityUI), and I find that despite my best efforts, convo options are not clickable with the left button. They are only interactable with the number keys (if I tick that box in Settings). What's the solution? Thanks.

I got it: using conversations on the built-in AC menu system works fine. But when switching to UnityUI, convo option linking to buttons are not saved on exit.
Not even when I leave the UI prefab on the scene.

When switching to Unity UI, you're referring to "Unity Ui Prefab"?  The prefab should never be left in the scene in that case.

What are your AC and Unity versions?  I shall attempt a recreation.

Also, what is the state of the "Interactable" checkbox of the linked UI Buttons when the issue occurs?

Gregorik

Thanks, Chris. I'm always using the latest AC and latest stable Unity: 2017.3.1 (not a patch version).

The linked buttons don't remain linked regardless of using Unity UI on scene or in prefab. But they still get a random AC ID number. My workaround has been simply to use AC's own menu which works as intended. 

Interactable box is enabled at all times.

Linking UI components to the Menu Manager is done via the ID numbers - the object fields themselves are expected to become unlinked.  Please see the "Unity UI menus" chapter of the Manual for full details on how the process works.
