Change Character speechs/quotes

[Rockou_]

I'm making a mod to change character quotes.. the Battlecry quotes
the problem is that there is multiple battlecry quote

    BATTLECRY =
    {
        GENERIC = "quote1",
        PIG = "quote2",
        PREY = "quote3",
        SPIDER = "quote4",
        SPIDER_WARRIOR = "quote5",
        DEER = "quote6",
    },

how can i change all of them to one single quote? Using the speech_character.lua in scripts doesn't work

EDIT: using GLOBAL.STRINGS.CHARACTERS.character.BATTLECRY = "quote" doesn't work too

Since there are several battle cries, you'll just ruin it if you replace it with a single string. I you want to go about it like that, then you need to set it you be a dictionary, like the one you posted in your snippet. Also, GLOBAL.STRINGS.CHARACTERS.character.BATTLECRY should be GLOBAL.STRINGS.CHARACTERS.CHARACTER_PREFAB_NAME.BATTLECRY where you replace CHARACTER_PREFAB_NAME with your character's prefab name.

That said, you should not need to do that when you're making a character mod. Most character mods have a line similar to this in their master_postinit:

STRINGS.CHARACTERS.GIR = require "speech_gir"

It takes the content of your speech file and saves it to the STRINGS.CHARACTERS. Just replace "GIR" and "gir" with your character's prefab name, in the appropriate casing respectively, but "speech_gir" should be named what your speech file is called.

Hey do you know how to change the quote for wx78. Where they say something nearby is scannable? Here is my code rn    

local require = GLOBAL.require

local STRINGS = GLOBAL.STRINGS

GLOBAL.STRINGS.CHARACTERS.WX78 = {}

GLOBAL.STRINGS.CHARACTERS.WX78.DESCRIBE = {}

STRINGS.CHARACTERs.WX78 = require "speech_WX78"
