CreepTalk

This project overloads the existing functions of Creeps to give them social skills.

In more detailed terms, this module does two things.

  1. It adds a new Creep.talk(group) function. When this is called a random saying from the specified group will be pulled from the language file and the creep will say it.

  2. It places all of the existing creep action functions inside of a wrapper function that calls talk before the action is performed.

Disclaimer

This is a project for the Screeps Game. It does not help real creeps learn to talk.

Usage

Loading CreepTalk is as simple as requiring and running a single function.

require('creeptalk')({
  'public': true,
  'language': require('creeptalk_basic')
})
  • public: whether 'sayings' should be displayed in private or to all players.

  • language: an object containing the desired phrases for the creeps to use.

Languages

Language packs are simply javascript objects that form key/value pairs. The key is the group itself (with most groups matching Creep functions). The value can be a-

  • string - This will be used directly each time it's called.
  • array - A random entry from the array will be used.
  • function - The results of the function will be used.

Contributing Language Packs

New language packs are always appreciated! Just copy creeptalk_template.js and fill in your custom details.
