 Evennia Talkative NPC
-
 Contribution - Griatch 2011
-
 This is a simple NPC object capable of holding a simple menu-driven
 conversation. Create it by creating an object of typeclass
 contrib.talking_npc.TalkingNPC, For example using @create:
-
+@create/drop John : contrib.talking_npc.TalkingNPC
- @create/drop John : contrib.talking_npc.TalkingNPC
-
 Walk up to it and give the talk command to strike up a conversation.
 If there are many talkative npcs in the same room you will get to
 choose which one's talk command to call (Evennia handles this
 automatically).
-
 Note that this is only a prototype class, showcasing the uses of the
 menusystem module. It is NOT a full mob implementation.
