animation stop in dialog

[fiaschetta]

I have an room where the background is animate and also a character is animate..
But, when go out the dialog-option, the animate of  the character and backgroung are stopped... why?

Because dialogs work that way, it will block nearly everything when a dialog is being executed.

It's currently not possible to workaround it directly if you're using the built-in dialog system, you may work around it by scripting your own dialog system though.
See this tracker entry for more info., see also this more recent thread for the "solution" mentioned in the tracker entry.

Gilbot you never did like my module...always telling people..."Don't go with the module! It is t3h dark side!!! Make your own!!!"

But if you want you can coin the phrase "workaround" instead of "solution." That's what I use. I would never refer to my b0rked module as a "solution."

Heh really? I only told people not to use plugins, not modules. Though personally I would use neither.

If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate, as my chemistry teacher used to say...
