At the beginning of the script, do you have "friendly1 = level.friendly1", because if you don't I THINK the script should be "level.friendly1 say.. etc."

I don't know much about speech yet, so wait till mohaa_rox, or jv_map replies.

Actually I haven't tried it. But he's right. Give your $friendly1 = level.friendly1. Then to make things easier, level.friendly1 = level.personname.

Then
level.personname say .....
level.personname waittill saydone.

I used didn't use the level.name part in my script, which works okay. I just used the AI's targetname, being friendly.

//BARNES WALKS OVER
barnes:
$friendly walkto $path1
$friendly waittill movedone
wait 0.3
$friendly turnto $player
$friendly lookat $player
$friendly say dfr_M1L1_add05
$friendly waittill saydone
$friendly lookat NULL
end

But he has friendly1, friendly2 etc. Just do the same too.

Ok I spotted some confusion here.

level.friendly1, 2 and so on are not automatically set by the game. They don't exist at all unless you're using global/friendly.scr. This script file sets the level.friendly values for all actors with targetname 'friendly' and a #fnum being the number of the friendly.

Lt. Barnes' code should work if the targetnames of the friendlies involved are 'friendly1' and 'friendly2'. Also, the necessary sound aliases (and preferably the dialog animations) need to be defined somewhere (or use test_).

Hope this gonna help somewhat somehow
