The background chatter mechanics seem very sophisticated. I think CSC users (maybe this one in particular) could do some interesting things using BGCs. However, they are hard coded to specific audio clips, making them of limited usefulness in custom stories that aren't just subtle modifications of the original story.

I think a checkbox that prevents an individual BGC from playing the associated audio clip would be useful here. Then we could repurpose all the other cool BGC elements (e.g, text, emotes, responses, events, etc.) for our various nefarious purposes.

I'm not sure if this is exactly how we'd tackle the issue, but I'll put in a Feature Request to generally look into it further!

I haven't tested it yet, but the 1.0.2 release notes suggest you might have added this feature. If so, thanks!

Ah shit, this was the thread I was thinking of replying to. Two birds, one stone etc., but yes, this might be what you need. No prob!
