Using
Code: [Select]
phrase one;phrase two;another phrase;phrase with a [variable;random] sub phraseas input for the "Say Something with Text-To-Speech" action, will result in
Code: [Select]
Say, 'phrase one' or 'phrase two' or 'another phrase' or 'phrase with a [variable' or 'random] sub phrase'
displayed in the action list.

This does not reflect what will actually be spoken, as the segment in square brackets will always be part of its parent segment, instead of dividing the parent segment.

Code: [Select]
Say, 'phrase one' or 'phrase two' or 'another phrase' or 'phrase with a variable sub phrase' or 'phrase with a random sub phrase'
Would be the correct and complete representation of the automatically generated random phrases, and how they will be spoken.


To save space and processing time, perhaps
Code: [Select]
Say, 'phrase one' or 'phrase two' or 'another phrase' or 'phrase with a [variable;random] sub phrase'
would be an alternative.


EDIT: Checked in v1.7.2.21, behavior is still present.

Thanks for letting me know.  I deliberately do not unpack the dynamic tts, as that is really dependent on how much the user puts into it.  Splitting the string doesn't have much overhead, but the dynamic stuff could be zillions of entries that have to be interpreted just to display in the lists o_O
