Stewie: Kind of, if you know the situations you want those things to happen, you can extract the data from the character state for some, and keep some statistics trackers for the other ones Like you would to to have an achievements system or something like that for achievements? some global achievement tracker, yeah not on settings tho but for the voice line stuff, that's per character so probably a dedicated node on each character that hooks up to everything else to keep track of stuff

load_sounds singleton tracking the directory for cultist audio?

Should stop playing speech or play a hurt sound if interrupted through damage (other events should probably stop speech too)

two other issues: 1) is this going to take a lot of memory if we have multiple cultists all loading ~175MB of WAVs? How can we optimize this? 2) Maybe we have each cultist only have a random subset of the available lines for that voice?

also, ensure it doesn't say the previous line twice in a row

Speech Priority (interrupts self if priority above previous):

• Death (and then mute the Speech node when done playing)
• Hurt
• Fight
• Detection
• etc

[Mooses2k]

factotum and dylanb neophyte cleaned and ready

[Mooses2k]

got the basics implemented. need the AI lag removed to test the cultist idle. Currently testable in voice branch with the \ key

[Mooses2k]

no more repeating lines as of a5bfbbcbed2f12a06ab1d879f095d221f07aa9ed

[Mooses2k]

merged, now need partial and confirmed detection lines, maybe cleanup detection time as well

[Mooses2k]

in PR, ready for testing

[Mooses2k]

we have idle, alert, detection, fight done, could use more testing and tweaking because cultist's are a bit too talky now

[Mooses2k]

• move percent change speak code to character_audio, track last time spoke, and set chances for the 3 new types of speech, wait for Stewie AI fix

[Mooses2k]

Made them less talky

Possible method to implement cultist Q and A:

• Change direct_player_sight to sight
• Include Enemy layer in vision Mask
• Raycast range 6m or so to any body in view cone (already doing this kinda, just limit range for this speech thing)
• Make Q and A speech higher priority than idle but lower than detection etc (with A higher priority than Q)
• If body is a Cultist, percent change of speech (10% per entrance to vision cone?)
• Signal answering cultist at beginning of Q speech so they don't start some other speech event (how signal?)
• Choose and play a random Q line
• Signal answering cultist when line is over, with small random delay
• Answering cultist should play randomly chosen answering line

Eventually by Q and A category (what, when, yes/no, statement, etc)
