Ah, I see now - the functions in the room script run to their own completion, so any loops that depend on calling other scripts should be moved to repeatedly_execute.

Thank you very much!

I'm trying to make a conversation that cycles through a number of problems automatically until they're all solved.  I had it set up in a while loop in the room script like this:

while(!all_solved) {
    if(!p1_solved)
        dialog[1].Start();  (p1_solved set during the dialog)
    if(!p2_solved)
        dialog[2].Start();
  ...
    all_solved = p1_solved && p2_solved && ...
}

This is what gave me the "post-script queue full" error.  I've been trying to figure out how to move the dialog calls to the dialog_request function - I tried to make a parent dialog which would call the child dialogs through run-script x and just calling dialog[ x ].start() within the dialog_request, but when I end a child dialog the parent ends too.  Is there a way to call a specific topic within the dialog_request function?  I might be able to condense everything into one dialog structure and just switch between topics.

I'm trying to script a dialog puzzle that has running loops based on conditionals.  Since there doesn't seem to be a way to test a conditional within a conversation, I thought it would be better to break it up into separate parts and call them from the room script, so that certain parts would repeat until a certain line was selected.  However, when I try to run a dialog part from within a while loop, it exits with the error "RunDialog: Cannot queue action, post-script queue full" without showing any of the dialog text.

I thought maybe the dialog was non-blocking and attempting to run itself over and over again, but reading through the forum it looks like it is, plus adding a wait(1) loop caused it to run indefinitely.  Is this something I can fix, or should I redesign the whole setup?

Thanks
