Do any of you think it's possible to have the AI say things to you through text if you get close enough to one of them?

If you placed an animated prop AI in a region, you could script it so you get a campaign style message when you enter it.

Yes.

But if you mean actual teammates that run around, then you can't doit with regions.

I think.

Yes, but his characters stayed in one place as far as I know.

Ask him anyways.

The easiest way to do it is to have region-triggered popups, like what has been mentioned. If you want to make it possible to talk to moving NPCs, you'll need to sacrifice a weapon slot to make a lua-trigger-weapon. You can make it so that whenever a specific weapon (a "talk" weapon) was used on an NPC, they would respond.
