Summary0002246: Continuing interrupted conversations
DescriptionEnhancement Request ...

Conversations can be aborted if one or more of the actors raises his alert level. For example, 2 actors could be relaying critical information, and if one of them says something like "What was that?" in response to player movement, the conversation is aborted.

A more natural response would be:

talk talk talk ...
[player moves, alerting an actor and pausing the conversation]
"What was that?"
silence for a moment
"Oh I guess it was the wind."
[resume conversation]
talk talk talk ...
Steps To ReproduceI can provide a test map with a conversation if it's needed.

Of course, if the player is seen and the actors go after him, aborting the conversation makes sense. It's just the low-level alerts that should lead to resuming a conversation. Preventing the actors from chasing the player around is the mapper's responsibility if the conversation is important.

I think we need a conversation spawnarg that tells AI to ignore alerts of a certain level, with a default of 2 (so anything that wouldn't cause searching would be ignored).

Guard 1: "Oh, man! I was totally banging this chick last night! She was all, COME OUT OF THE SHADOWS, YOU!"
Guard 2: "Seriously? I got in the mood last night and told my wife SHOW YOURSELF OVER THERE!"
Guard 1: Oh man! This girl was all, like, DID I JUST SEE SOMETHING MOVE?"


I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself. I'll go hide in a corner now...
