I have made 2 tutorials to demonstrate how autoit3 can be used to inject dialogue into a character through the Event Setup in SOM.
Download the zip file I have attached. Read the README. Download and install autoit3 [url][https://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/]
You must be running SOM (obviously) and be in the SOM_EDIT : SOM_MAP : Piece Specifications Setup window, also you must be highlighting
an NPC. Once you have autoit3 installed your computer will recognize the DialogueTutorial_01.au3 scripts. Highlight the file and Right mouseclick and select run
to run it - select edit to change it. The script will look for a text file called simpleman_0.txt this holds the dialogue you want to enter.
A window will popup and say "press ESC for emergency exit" press ok, and the script will wait until you are back in SOM. Press "Event Setup" while
your NPC is highlighted this (must be a new event not an existing one). The script will then execute.
Good luck................
