AICharacterUI¶
This AICharacterUI community component activates the start chat button for AI NPCs. By clicking the chat button containing the NPC's name, players start to chat with the NPC. Attach this component to the AI NPC that you want players to talk to.

-
Only one AICharacterUI component is allowed in one scene.

Once attached, you can find it in the Settings Explorer by going to Gameplay Manager>AICharacterUI.
