NPC Prompts Megathread
One way to interface with NPCs

Many NPCs rill respond to things you say. Some of this is already documented in 'help chatter', 'help taxi' and likely other help files. Some is on the BgBB, like this thread from Mench (https://sindome.org/bgbb/open-discussion/anything-really/npc-response-prompts-1327/.

It was suggested by some players that it would be good to extend help files to include such BgBB knowledge and the various words and phrases NPCs might respond to. As few know them all, this thread could be a place to collect them and ideas on how to possibly update help files to make it easier for players to fund such prompts.

To be clear, please don't post any IC information. Don't list specific NPCs and what they do and don't respond to. Mostly what I'm looking for are 'words or phrases NPCs a NPC might respond to' and not IC details of who does or where they are or what club they are a part of.

Thanks!

I think there are three different ways to go about this. The one I suggest is just listing words that an NPC will respond to when a player examines that NPC. Another way is to list them all in a helpfile somewhere, and the third one is to just make a list somewhere on the boards like was some previously.

I like the idea of listing them in the examine, because it is specific to each NPC type, and it requires players to actually find that NPC in order to learn anything about what that NPC can do.

We already list words and commands for NPCs we can command. I think it might be worth listing things like this, or some kind of tidbit how 'They seem to be looking for something'

I don't recall the words/phrases but some NPCs will respond to speech directed at them containing words like 'job' or 'work'. I don't recall the exact phrasing needed and I suspect staff would have to provide details on what all words/phrases players can try.

Phrasing doesn't matter.

All the triggers that you really need are in help taxi, examining things you can command, and the thread I made. Outside of that, it's all just stuff that you can find if you try talking to an NPC and changing how you talk to them.

There's really no need for a mega thread when the total list of prompts you'd use daily aren't even worthy of a minor thread.
