About the PR


Freeform Text Input has been abandoned! Praise Phrase Templates!




Added expansion of Phrase Templates with AI modules!
Only one expansion module can be active at any given time, but is intended to be easy add more in the future.





Utilizes maptext on an object. Transformations on the object itself then translate to the maptext as applicable (color, pixel shift, alpha). This would allow for easy expansion to allow AI's to be able to use different fonts or emphasis.

Impact:
- Forces all maptext anchor's highlight text to white.

Thanks to zjdtmkhzt, MatheusIsNotAvailable, and Noodle for providing a better idea but I implemented the one I could wrap my head around.

Previous Implementation:

Why's this needed?
Provides additional ability for proximal information from AI. Utilizes existing hologram resources and follows existing UX methodology of existing holograms.

PR RE-WORKED!  Freeform text entry has been abandoned in favor of Phrasal Templates.

[Danger Noodle]

Very nice! I have a couple ideas for new text modules:

Discount Dan's Turbo Chef Module! Includes words related to DDs, cooking and radioactive materials
S.A.F.E.T.Y module (Space Affliction Fear and Eradication Test Y) Includes many warnings such as: BAD! HELP NEEDED, WEAR... HARD HAT/GLASSES/WELDING MASK/MASK/SUIT, SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION, BREATHE!, FIX.... BREACH/HEART/HUMAN/ROBOT/WALL/LIGHT, BE... SAFE/HAPPY/FUNNY/ALIVE
The F.U.C.K module is to be used during emergencies and it lets the AI say: AAAAAA, HELP!, WHY?!, STOP, DON'T, EVIL and more phrases AI players say when they're at their limit.
