Text length calculation broken with certain tags

[Dodoveloper]

The issue is caused by the wait_finished signal not being emitted with certain tags.
This seems to be because the last variable in bbcodeWait.gd is never equal to length - 1, thus line 27 is never reached.

Forcing the skip by pressing the skip button lets me advance. There might be a clue there.

I noticed this bug with a couple of dialogues in the bbcode example. Specifically, the ones that have the [lb] tag, so it definitely has something to do with that.

I'm not sure how to fix it myself, but I hope this info can help!

Yep this is a known issue (first one mentioned in README.md). I think the fix for this issue is probably a rewrite of the bbcodewait.gd file. I plan to do this as soon as I get some free time. So stay tuned!

Just found this when using the current demos - the ExampleBBCodes demo breaks and doesn't show the OK buttons to progress because bbcodeWait.gd gets stuck looping never reaching what it think is the final character (char 67). Did a bunch of debugging to see if I could fix it for you but eventually found your FIXME comment at

DialogueNodes/addons/dialogue_nodes/objects/DialogueParser.gd

Line 280 in 49516e7

# FIXME : Length calculation is borked when the value has [, ] unrelated to any bbcodes.

Seems like _update_wait_tags is maybe the true fix? bbcodewait's _process_custom_fx is simply acting on what seems like the wrong last dict entry value that was fed to it.
