NPC Messages

Hey, uhm if there will be NPC’s and the Players will be abel to place them, could there be an option to custormize whole Conversations for them? Like an Message with Options of Questions you can ask for or even answers.

Example:

Hey!
I’m [NPC Name], how can I help you?

  • What is this Place?

This is the Town of [Guildname]! Beautiful City isn’t it?
It’s my Hometown, if you have any Questions I’m always willing to help strangers!

  • Who’s the Guildleader?
  • How can I get a member of the Guild?
  • Where can I trade stuff?
  • You’re actually very cute…
  • No thanks, maybe later.

Who’s the Guildleader?

Thats probably [Player Name], he’s the one in charge. Its hard to get an chat with him, hes very busy!
Is there something else I can help you with?

  • How can I get a member of the Guild?
  • Where can I trade stuff?
  • You’re actually very cute…
  • No thanks, maybe later.

How can I get a member of the Guild?

Currently the Guild does not accept new Guild Members.

You can Trade in any Shop you can find around here! Just go out and take a look!

You’re actually very cute…

Oh thanks! Hehe… but you know, I already have an Husband. If you had come earlier, it might have worked out with us!

  • 30 Years? Oh my God!
  • Oh really? So you met your Husband 12 years before you’ve been born?
  • Oh, well thats an uncomfortabel Situation now. Hehehe…

30 Years? Oh my God!

What*s the matter? I dont look like I’m already 54 do I?

  • Sorry I didn’t mean to…

Sorry I didn’t mean to…

Ahh, I’ve forgot it already. I don’t have the time to get upset about such things anyway. :smile:

Okay then, come back later for an chat! I love talking to Strangers, so many intresting Stories!


Yeah and that would be it. It’s just that the NPC’s could get an own personality by the Players, also with that kind of thing you could make Adventures. That would make it an win-win. 2 Things in one :smiley:

What do you think? Any other Suggsestions?

EDIT:
Well actually that would also pervent from People spamming Signs to explain something in a Town like on Minecraft Servers. Thats what I mean:

Repeat endlessly

That’s a really cute idea.

Haha Yeah I like those Caracters xD I would probably have one of them too xD

Although NPCs aren’t in the current plan reading stuff like this makes me want them :smile:

Yay! Feel the Need for Speed! Ugh… ughm… I mean NPC’s … :smile:

Wooh @Opulus did my suggestion from the old forum without even reading it. There was a lot of people who didn’t like it though :frowning:

A lot of the NPC discussion has been taken here btw:

I did read NPCs and their AI before I made my Thread ^^

I had the feeling but if people read this before they start to argue there will be less repetition of arguments :slight_smile:

Kind of wanted NPC’s but not so much now lol

It’d be cool if you could also record a voice for the NPC’s. So that you could also hear the dialogue not just read it. If this idea did get implemented it’d also be cool if some NPC’s, like the commoner’s that wouldn’t know english, could speak in Oortian and their dialogue would be depicted with oort glyphs and/or the oort alphabet! It would be a great feature that can be added after the initials are done. :smiley:
