Wild Npc Missions

Wild Npc mission givers are npcs that spawn in the game world outside of cities. Wild spawn npcs have a mixture of neutral and faction aligned missions based on the type of npc that spawns. As an example, wild imperial spawns use imperial themed npc missions and rebels use rebel themed npc missions. Non Galactic Civil War faction aligned npcs use neutral themed missions. Not all wild npcs spawn as being conversable with in order to offer missions however.

Wild mission npcs use the same list of "decorative npcs" as town mission npcs to determine which type of npc will be a mission giver or not. For more information about npc spawning behavior see: Static Townsperson Spawns

Obtaining Wild NPC Missions

To obtain a mission from a wild mission giving npc, the player needs to go through a series of dialogue interactions. Upon interacting with the npc, the player will receive one of 3 randomly selected greetings by the npc (npc spawns with a fixed dialogue that is randomly selected; Once selected the player will receive the same greeting response from the npc each time they interact with it):

Example:

From /utterance/thug.stf

thug_npc_greet_1
thug_npc_greet_2
thug_npc_greet_3

The player is then offered a series of dialogue choices; one set leading down casual conversation paths and the other set leads to requesting work (mission). If the player chooses the mission path then they are offered a choice to accept or reject the offer. If the player chooses to proceed the mission then the npc issues the mission description as part of its dialogue and the player may accept or reject the mission. Following agreeing to take on the mission, the npc uploads a randomly selected mission to the player's datapad from its private mission tab listing.

Note: From reading the utterance files, its assumed that these npcs issue random statements from time to time while in the presence of a player. Judging by the description, these statements produce an atmosphere simulating the npc talking with it's coherts/friend (aka other spawned npcs around it). The probably scenerio is that the player 'over hears' these portions of the conversation.

Example:

From /utterance/thug.stf

u1 through u25
