Clarifications about titles in dialogue responses

As the thread's name says. Im not sure if im doing something wrong, but it seems that when use titles like [Rank] or [ShipName] in your character's response to a popup, the dialogue script doesnt recognise the title command.

Say my name is 'chuckles' and my ship is 'tribblenaught'. When i put '[LastName] to [ShipName], one to beam up.' In your character's response, it comes across as exactly that with the commands in brackets, rather than 'Chuckles to Tribblenaught, one to beam up.'


Something im doing wrong, a bug or current foundry limitation?

Of course, it works perfectly when placed in the primary dialogue of the popup or contact.

    I remember early on with the Foundry that this was possible to do, but recently, I too have noted you're unable to enter dynamic variables in the response window button area. I'm assuming this is a bug or maybe even an alteration to the Foundry. However, it would be nice to include this again if it is simply a bug.

    It doesn't work on button text.

    Yeah this is one thing I would certainly like to see fixed(or added) so that wildcards can be used in response buttons.
