How to speak global messages?

How to make global messages to have them spoken by characters?

Hello, JudgeDeadd

Use GetMessageText() function to retrieve the message then ordinary DisplaySpeech() to display:

string buffer;
GetMessageText(<message number>, buffer);
DisplaySpeech(EGO, buffer);

Were I you I would make a special function:

//main script

function DisplaySpeechMessage(int CharID, int message_number) {

 string buffer;
 GetMessageText(message_number, buffer);
 DisplaySpeech(CharID, buffer);

}

//script header

import function DisplaySpeechMessage(int CharID, int message_number);



now in script, for example:

DisplaySpeechMessage(EGO, 501);


Hope it helps
