Summary | 0009494: [CAN_SPEAK] cannot be added to Zombies | ||||||||||
Description | A fairly simple bug, of interest only to modders. The game suppresses speech in reanimated corpses, by way of ignoring the CAN_SPEAK tag. This means, of course, that even if you try to add speech to a zombie (even it has been transformed into something else,) it will remain mute. The same thing might well also apply to CAN_LEARN, though that's harder to test. This seems a fairly simple bug to fix: Allow CAN_SPEAK to function in zombies, and add it to the list of tags that the raise-dead interaction removes. | ||||||||||
Steps To Reproduce | Create a custom-interaction-cum-syndrome that can add speech to zombies, and use it in the arena. | ||||||||||
Additional Information | Seems to be new to 42.XX, as talky-zombies were a thing in 40.24. | ||||||||||

I think it's intentional. AFAIK speaking and learning needs a soul, but zombies lack one. Quote from: bay12 twitter "Hey Tarn, will we have undead trumpeters in the next version?" Only vampires. When the zombie's soul is deleted, it forgets all its tunes. |

If it worked in 0.40.24, then souls aren't the problem. |
