Call Outs, GTBS Addon

This is a locked, single-post thread from Creation Asylum. Archived here to prevent its loss.
No support is given. If you are the owner of the thread, please contact administration.

This script basically allows you to have characaters say something before performing their attack or skill. It allows you to designate a generic statement or a specific one tying to map_id and whom exactly you are attacking.
If you add this code to the gtbs demo, you will see exactly what I mean.

Enjoy! ^_^

GTBS Call Outs

# callout on a standard action.
