TalkingActivator

Talking Activators allow for the player to engage in dialogue with non-actors.

TalkingActivators can be found, created and edited from the Objects window under Actors. They have the following properties:

• ID: The Editor ID of the object.
• Name: The object's display name.
• Model: The name of the model assigned to this talking activator.
• Looping Sound: A sound that plays continuously for this talking activator, if desired.
• Voice Type: The Voicetype used for this object when it speaks.
• Add Destruction Data: The destructible stages of this activator, if any.
• Radio Station: Not used.
• Cont Broadcast: Not used.
• Non-Pipboy: Not used.
• Random Anim Start: If checked, this object begins its idle animation at a random start time. This allows you to have several of the same animated activators in an area without their animations playing in sync.
• No Voice Filter Not used.
  • On Local Map: Whether this object's local map representation, if any, will appear on the local map. Checked by default.
• Keywords: List of Keywords assigned to this object.
• Scripts: Papyrus Scripts associated with this object.

To have the object simply say a single line as another actor, you can instead just use Say - ObjectReference.
