Clear default sequence

I have a default sequence that most dialogue uses, but for a few conversations, I'd like to just clear the default and have NO sequence at all. What would I put in the sequence field to clear the default and do nothing? If I leave it blank, it will use the default of course.

Hi,

What behavior do you want for those conversations?

You could set the conversation's default sequence to "None()@0" (without quotes). To do this, inspect the conversation in the Dialogue Editor. Select Menu > Conversation Properties. Tick Override Display Settings > Camera Settings. Then set the Default Sequence there.

Note: "None()@0" means the sequence will have no duration. (See: How To: Control the Duration of Subtitle Text)

Hi Tony,
The default sequence I have setup in the DialogManager is:
AudioWait(Sound/Dialog/entrytag);

However, some dialog doesn't have voicing. I don't want any sequence command for those. I'm trying to say:
"Don't use the default sequence for this conversation. There is no sequence commands for this conversation."

Every dialogue entry has to run some sequence. If you just want the subtitle to stay onscreen for a duration based on the text length, set the conversation's Override Display Settings > Camera Settings > Default Sequence to: Delay({{end}})

(See the link in my post above about subtitle duration and sequences.)
