Finishing off a text to speak command

[johncook19@hotmail.com]

Hi guys, need some advice.

I want to have a long text-to-speak command to complete the “speak” before moving on to the next command (which will be a user voice input). The problem is that the program starts the “speak” but immediately recognises the speak as the next user voice input.

I want a checklist like this:
Computer says: turn on battery, alternator and lights
I say: check.

I know I could insert a “pause” for a few seconds while the “speak” is done but that is a pain and ruins the immersion.

Any ideas?

Are you saying the text-to-speech output is recognized as a spoken command? If so, you have some type of crosstalk between your recording device and your playback device.

Are you using a (USB) headset, as is recommended? Speakers and a desktop microphone, for example, would be a near worst-case scenario, as the microphone will obviously pick up what comes out of the speakers.


If you are using a configuration like the latter, and have no alternatives, you can try enabling the "Wait until speech completes before continuing command" option for the "Say Something with Text-To-Speech" action, which will, as the name suggests, wait until the TTS playback is complete, before moving on to the next action in the command.

Yes it is the latter configuration. Thanks for the suggestion, I will try that. Only just started using this, so still getting to grips with it. Appreciate the very quick assistance!
