- This type of interaction stores the input message that you have written in the dialog to your mods folder in (Mods\SAC_Extreme Violence -Mod- Text Dialog) and uses the saved text for your future dialogs.
- Each time that you run the interaction, a random dialog will be picked from the text file and will be used as a starting template, you can still edit the dialog before saying it.
