Access Specific Family Member Instance Variables

<img src="http://i.imgur.com/HS9dRh1.png" border="0" />

Brief summary:

NPCTalk is a global variable set at 0 default.

Talk1, Talk2, Talk3 are family instance variables that contain the text said NPC is to speak.

TalkNum is a family instance variable that contains how many times the NPC is to talk.

The idea is, player presses action key to talk to NPC.

NPC talks and NPCTalk = 1

If player presses another key, either:

1) Stop talking if NPC TalkNum is 1

2) Continue talking if NPC TalkNum is 2.

It works until Keyboard->On any key pressed

*-> If NPCs Talk Num = 1 then blah

*-> Else -> Trigger Once then type Talk2.

The NPC I'm trying to talk to has TalkNum set to 2 and is meant to talk twice. But he isn't. It will talk once and is definitely breaking into the If NPCs Talk Num = 1 branch. It never goes into the Else. Its not accessing the proper NPC family member that has TalkNum set to 2.

Any solution for this? Am I missing something? I clearly have it so NPCs is being accessed by collision. It should only be referencing the NPC with TalkNum set to 2.

Answered my own question.

Turns out that I needed to add Wait 1.0 second commands inbetween every NPCTalk add 1 event. What was happening was when you hit a key, it would execute everything at the same time, cascading down the events. I sometimes forget that these events execute in fractions of a second, and no one presses/releases keys that fast.
