Manual dialogue advancement instead of automatic
Currently, the dialogue advances on its own pace and player can only speed it up. I would like option to advance it manually and the auto can be a toggle.

ODS GeeK AdminUpvote from Discord by Chris(Nihil):
I’ll second that one. If it’s not a voiced line, I wish I could move it at my pace.
Since I do YouTube stuff I typically read it aloud for the viewers and some of the lines are hard to finish before it moves on. -

NeilWould be great! I have a brother who wants to play but he has an illness where he takes twice as long for him to process something if it is not said to him so the auto advancing text will be a big deal for him (having to read it out the message log wouldn't really be ideal).

JenI was trying to read all the camp dialogue out loud to my stream yesterday and I didn't always make it to the end of the line, even talking as quickly as I could (which is quick!). A toggle between auto and manual advancement of dialogue would be amazing and is a lovely accessibility feature. Definitely agreeing with Neil's comment -- lots of folks would benefit from this!

Balgin StondraegI would absolutely be in favour of this for unvoiced dialogues. Often lines disappear from the screen before they can be fully read.
