Character name as variable in response option results in malformed response text about godot_dialogue_manager

[nathanhoad]

When I use your example dialogue it appears to work for me (except I renamed name to player_name because name is already a property of Node):

Can you verify your Dialogue Manager version is 2.38.0?

That's weird :) Because here I am attaching minimal reproduction project, where I isolated the issue.
dialogue_manager_issue_553.zip

Yeah you're missing the line that was added to fix this issue a little while ago: https://github.com/nathanhoad/godot_dialogue_manager/blob/main/addons/dialogue_manager/dialogue_manager.gd#L145

That does present a different problem though - somehow the swapping of files on update isn't working properly any more.

Actually, to the MRP the plugin was obtained through asset store. So there was no update path. Therefore I am guessing the fix is missing in the released version?

[nathanhoad]

Oh wow I'm an idiot - turns out the fix hasn't actually been released yet. Here I was about to tear the auto-update apart trying to find out why it wasn't working.

I'll do a release now. Thanks for pointing me to the actual problem 👍

I just released v2.39.0 and verified that upgrading fixes the issue in that MRP project.

Great, I am glad I could help. Thank you for the great plugin!
