I'm pretty much on track to install the (supposedly) temporary version tomorrow. So far, it features: – NPC persistence – # NPC name prefix to disable persistence – ongoing chatting while idling near a player – multiple chat choices using the pipe | character I'll try to cram in the [player name] placeholder functionality tomorrow. I'll also need to make it so you can have quick messages as string choices, like: Good day!|#1|Hello! Where the #1 will be parsed as the localized 'Hello!' quick message. I feel it's important to make that work for consistency. You'll also be able to mix messages with and without placeholders, like this: Hello there!|#1|Good day, [traveler]!|Hi [there]! The | pipe character feels pretty good as a separator since it's oftentimes the 'logical OR' operator in a programming language. In Angeldust it semantically connects by making the NPC say one line OR another line. Also @obi- and @Hummm: if only I were so lucky :P

I don't know about the Frenchman, but this Aussie got lost after: Good day!|#1|Hello! I think these NPC's need their own hand book. Seriously though, I'm only just managing to keep up with all of these programming choices, it's doing my head in. In the line: Good day! |#1| Hello! what would the output message be? Is it Good day! or Hello! ? or what?
