===MudChat===
Targets: MOBs
Parameters: optional or additional chat data file name and/or chat-mob-type
Examples: smurf

chat.dat=smurf

mychat.dat=cityguard

mychat.dat=

+(here there);9neither;5well, where?;1nowhere

Description: Allows the mobs to speak and respond to speech. The chat.dat file, from which speech behavior is derived, contains many "templates" for different speech behaviors. MudChat will attempt to choose the correct speech behavior for the mob based on the mobs name. This may be overridden by specifying a speech behavior in the parameters. Speech patterns in the chat.dat at present include:

default

dog fido beastly fido_dog

cat kitten lion

pig boar

doll toy

papa_smurf smurf

monster

smurfette

healer cleric doctor


If the first character in the parameters is a plus-sign, then a semi-colon delimited list of chat data is expected, in the same format as is found in chat.dat.
