I'm trying to figure out how captioned voice lines are played. I know it involves ESD and maybe EMEVD, but I've got almost no clue how to work them.
How would I allow ESD to listen for an SpEffect on an Entity to play a certain captioned voice clip?

if its anything like prior games you probably could just add something to their ESD like
if DoesSelfHaveSpEffect(SPEFFECTID):
TalkToPlayer()
I believe my issue is that Libra's ESD permanently quits once he enters battle. So I need to make it not do that to have mid-fight dialogue

I'd try...
if DoesSelfHaveSpEffect(45852):
# talk:91757050:"You shall know struggle."
TalkToPlayer(91757050, -1, -1, True)
return 0```
Which is a new def at the bottom.
But the ESD quits entirely with x53 from what I understand...And nothing ever calls that, I assume
So how would I call it...

It goes to t703001900_x53 by breaking from the while loop from before it. You could try something like this:
dry dagger
That seems to give me a compilation error. I'll try and mess around some more though. Thanks for the pointers

remove the : from the end of DoesSelfHaveSpEffect(45852). For assert you don't need :
dry dagger
Hm. Unlike most of what I tried before, it doesn't break his ending lines. The issue here I believe is that it doesn't loop infinitely for some reason, so it never barks when Libra gets the SpEffect
The SpEffect is the one he gets post-meditation btw
So it's definitely valid
Maybe it has to do something with the fact that only Merchant Libra talks and the ESD quits completely once he stops existing or smth?... idk
