Ellis Stormcrow (Script)

Description
Ellis used to have a crow imitation voiceline when separated from other survivors until it was removed in The Last Stand update.
This script undoes this by reverting the changes and adding the lines back *alongside* (not instead of) the default ones.

As a VScript talker, this mod conflicts with nothing.

(distance criteria removed temporally in the video for sake of illustration)

Shoutout to ChimiChamo and his excellent article on VScript Talkers

or i might be wrong, but i remember him playing loner lines like, every 2 minutes, regardless of if being alone or not

interestingly enough, now if there's less than 4 survivors (not dead ones, connected in general), he time to time calls out for people as if he's been left for dead (omgogmogmgomog i said the thing), no matter if he's sticking close to other survivors or not.

idk, Xanaguy said he removed it on purpose, he told us to wait when I asked him for the reason though and never got back to us since

I'm guessing it was an accident?

I'm surprised this was removed

When separated with other survivors. Most noticeable when you're the only survivor left since you usually won't go that far otherwise. I think the crow calls might come from boy scout or something.

in what situation was this line even gonna be used for????

I uploaded the test version with the vanilla lines commented out lmaoooo
Thanks to ChimiChamo for pointing this out, fixed and tested: both appear in auto mode.

Also tested worldSaidPlayerLostCall, doesn't apply the flag and breaks the 50 second space between voicelines. Odd considering the name in the table is "worldsaidplayerlostcall" (all lower)

They are? Odd, I'm sure I tested auto lines. I'll check them later.
Also the talker files used `SaidPlayerLostCall` then `applyworldcontext` so I assumed that's what it is. I'll try the world version tonight and see if it works.

"adding the lines back *alongside* the default ones."

don't believe their lies, they're only alongside when using the vocaliser version of the lines, the automatic ones only have the crow ones. also btw you should apply worldSaidPlayerLostCall in the context instead of just SaidPlayerLostCall
