Skipping speech with specific keyboard key only. [SOLVED]

[Retro Wolf]

At the moment you can skip character speech with all the keyboard keys, I want to map it to just one. That way you can't fast-forward through dialogue accidentally when using keyboard movement.

I appreciate any help!

Prior to AGS 3.3.0:
game.skip_speech_specific_key

AGS 3.3.0 and later:
Speech.SkipKey

I'm surprised I didn't see that one, cheers CW!
For some reason though, you can only use special keys like space and return, you can't use letter keys. Not a deal-breaker, but interesting...

You should be able to do this. What script do you have?

[Retro Wolf]

Speech.SkipKey = eKeyX;

It just seems to hate letters, other keys work fine.

Blank template, just a bunch of player.say commands after each other, no special speech settings or custom scripts.

This looks like a lowercase/uppercase bug; using Speech.SkipKey = eKeyX + 32; fixes it.

Works exactly how I wanted, thanks guys!
