Hey everyone!
Lately I've been creating a bunch of custom speech soundbanks for W:A for personal use and this got me thinking it would be great to have an option to use multiple files for each phrase.
I mean there's multiple files for the "oof" and "ow" sounds which play randomly, why not to make this a thing for everything else by simply adding a number in the file name? For example: Yessir.wav, Yessir2.wav, Yessir3.wav -- I think you can imagine the opportunities for such a diversified speech customisation!

I'm not sure if WA supports it. I think it sounds like an idea for a new patch
when I downloaded custom speechs, I noticed similar things in some.

Yeah, there's no such feature in W:A. I just thought it would be nice to have this at least as a Wormkit Module if anyone decides to implement the idea.
By the way, W:A has some unused speech files: uh-oh.wav, amazing.wav, brilliant.wav, excellent.wav and perfect.wav. It would be nice to use them as alternatives for other phrases:
- Uh-oh.wav can be used as an alternative to whatthe.wav or runaway.wav
- Amazing.wav, brilliant.wav, excellent.wav and perfect.wav can be used as alternatives to flawless.wav or revenge.wav
We could also take a page out of Hedgewars and base the praise speechbank files off how many worms are drowned/killed at once with 2 worms killed at once playing the brilliant voiceline, and more than 3 being amazing. Perfect voiceline could be played when collecting a crate.
