- Merged this mod and No No Bad together. Now you won't need 2 esps for the mods (though Courier Vests is still required).
- Updated NNB Mike's idle dialogue to work better.
- Added a few tiny lines here and there.
NOTE: If you're installing this with both mods installed, you'll need to uninstall No No Bad. This means that if Legion Mike is carrying anything you want to keep, say an armor or weapon or just random junk, make sure to take it from him before you uninstall No No Bad. This also means that you'll need to re-recruit Legion Mike when you start up your game.
Addressing your first issue. Both Mike and Zach have very low comment frequency to begin with. Zach so far has mostly just screamed corn whenever I pick up maize(though this may be a coincidence) and compared ruins to Detroit. Mike also just says things about ghost. Kinda disappointing because I've had Hope and Willow follow me for awhile and the frequency comparison is very noticeable.
Edit: The only time I've noticed location specific dialogue was in Camp Golf and I'm not even sure if it was dialogue from that episode.
As for your other issue. Their lines don't seem to be lip synced outside of direct conversation and you do have to be relatively close to them for anything to trigger. If you're in direct conversation then I'm not sure what could be wrong. I have an almost maxed out load order so if it's a mod conflict it's probably a very specific one.
I know nothing of modding but maybe there could be inter-mod compatibility? Lines could be triggered if they enter an added area or if they come into close proximity to modded NPCs or companions? Not sure if that'd be too hard to do or even possible without greatly expanding load orders or if having built in mod detection be a nightmare. Maybe have Zach make comments if you give him a unique weapon from one of the mods. Like the shotgun in Cabot Quest.
Though I can imagine mods with heavy scripting like The Frontier's NCR route would be hell to script the companions to not break things.
Would it be possible to add some of the campfire stories to "get to know" dialogue? Maybe add non-lip synced dialogue from each other to simulate the other chiming in without having to script exiting a conversation for one to comment and reentering conversation. Adding lines from Mike and Zach to each other to simulate them talking would be cool during combat would be cool without needing to account for specific distances. Not sure if that would make things easier. It sounds like it would but again, I know nothing of modding.
Excluding all that I'm sure you have more material for ambient dialogue at the very least.
Sorry if I seem all over the place. I intended to ask just the first question and then had a flow of ideas ^^;
I recruited him but Mike never showed up. I looked everywhere but couldn't find him.
