PersonalitySpeech
Tracking Issue: #317
Tags: customization
The soldier speech system allows soldiers to use different voicelines in some situations based on their attitude. For example, an "Intense" soldier will voice react differently to killing an enemy than a "Twitchy" one.
This behavior was hardcoded in the base game. Highlander replaces the original implementation
with the PersonalitySpeech config array that takes values from XComGame.ini config file.
This potentailly allows mods to replace the original personality speech patterns,
as well as add new patterns for new attitudes, if a mod manages to add any.
Example entry for the "By The Book" attitude:
[XComGame.CHHelpers]
+PersonalitySpeech=( Personality="Personality_ByTheBook", \\
CharSpeeches = ( \\
(CharSpeech="Moving", PersonalityVariant=("Moving_BY_THE_BOOK")), \\
(CharSpeech="TargetKilled", PersonalityVariant=("TargetKilled_BY_THE_BOOK")), \\
(CharSpeech="Panic", PersonalityVariant=("Panic_BY_THE_BOOK")), \\
(CharSpeech="SoldierVIP", PersonalityVariant=("SoldierVIP_BY_THE_BOOK")), \\
(CharSpeech="UsefulVIP", PersonalityVariant=("UsefulVIP_BY_THE_BOOK")), \\
(CharSpeech="GenericVIP", PersonalityVariant=("GenericVIP_BY_THE_BOOK")), \\
(CharSpeech="HostileVIP", PersonalityVariant=("HostileVIP_BY_THE_BOOK")), \\
(CharSpeech="LootCaptured", PersonalityVariant=("LootCaptured_BY_THE_BOOK")), \\
(CharSpeech="HackWorkstation", PersonalityVariant=("HackWorkstation_BY_THE_BOOK")), \\
(CharSpeech="LootSpotted", PersonalityVariant=("LootSpotted_BY_THE_BOOK")), \\
(CharSpeech="TargetEliminated", PersonalityVariant=("TargetEliminated_BY_THE_BOOK")), \\
(CharSpeech="PickingUpBody", PersonalityVariant=("PickingUpBody_BY_THE_BOOK")) \\
))
Note: only one PersonalitySpeech entry per attitude will be taken into account, any others will be ignored.
If your mod wants to replace the original speech personality config with your own,
you should copy the original entry to their own config exactly as it appears in the Highlander,
and replace the + at the start of the entry with a -, which will remove the entry when your mod is loaded.
Then you can specify your own config entry for that attitude below.
