I haven't had time to work in this since the last update, this weeks has been brutal at work, and next one is only gonna be a little bit better. Still, I wanted to say that I recreated the message system from hired guns, including the random chatter. One thing I didn't like about the Amiga game was that all characters had the same lines, and when one of the two robots said some casual thing like "who brought the picnic hamper?" it just seemed weird since they are described as cold and to-the-point, machinelike, in the game's story. So, I wrote special lines for each occasion for the robot characters which they will use instead. For example, they won't cry in pain when hit or killed, but rather say something like "internal damage sensors indicate hull breach." or "auxiliary servo unit 2B damaged. Engaging nano-repair systems." and technobabble like that
