Dynamic Monologue [BETA]

Description
Ever felt your character is too silent?
Do you want your character to actually feel lifelike?
Worry not, this problem is solved! Your character will now speak about various events in their PZ life, ranging from starting in their spawn house, to spotting and killing a zombie for the first time.
There's a lot of variability, with traits and occupations affecting what things your character says. When a pacifist realizes they have to fight zombies, they become depressed at the thought.
A normal survivalist activating a generator for their first time feels a lot of excitement, while an Electrician becomes thankful for their decision to study Electricity.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS MOD IS NOT FINISHED AND LACKS MANY FEATURES THAT WILL BE ADDED

Examples
  • Different text when dropping a generator depending on how long you held it.
  • Baseball player cherishes when he finds a baseball bat, not so much when finding a baseball.
  • Character thinks what they should do during the day before realizing what's going on outside.
  • Killing a dozen of zombies with only stomps will cause your character to complain and state they need to find a weapon.
  • Cowardly characters think Knox Event is a nightmare that they need to wake themselves out of.
  • Different thoughts on various moodles depending on which moodle you stayed at the longest. For example, if you spent majority of your game very hungry, your character will state they need to eat tomorrow when peckish. If you spent majority of your game peckish, the character will state it's a perfect time to eat.
  • While putting up a sheet on a window, if your character is cowardly, they become scared at the thought a zombie might of noticed them while they were putting up the sheets.
  • Small chance for your character to speak when doing everyday activities [NOT FINISHED]
  • Spending time in rain makes your character accustomed, and eventually enjoy being in the rain! This also impacts your moodles; your character will get sad if you don't like rain, but your character will be happy if you like rain. However, staying indoors for long periods of time will make you eventually dislike rain again!

Planned Features
  • Implement more actions into thought system (bandaging, starting/ending campfire etc.)
  • Different thoughts depending on amount of zombies spotted at once, your character's braveness, whether the weapon is melee or a gun (or lack of it) and kill count.
  • Panicking while opening a window makes your character desperate to open it.
  • Small chance for your character to say stuff when smoking etc. daily pz activities

I know you may or may not be working on this mod anymore, and perhaps not even into b42, but I just wanted to say that this mod is awesome. It makes my character feel so alive, with the curated lines based on events (ie. when freshly made character) etc.

There are only some problems I've experienced, DMMoodle.lua errors during certain events, and sometimes randomly (perhaps another player in my server did something near me at the time) like turning on a generator, sometimes the text shows up, sometimes not. But otherwise even if an error will occur it seems to still play the variable text.
