Please condisr to add yell cmd.

Or outright remaking shout text box into yell for players.

Yell: text would be displayed within certain distance inside the module. Ie: 3 screens away you could hear someone to yell

it is highly unreasonable to think that someone can yell across 3 maps, the maps on this server are huge

maybe if there was a way they could do 3-5x the normal speaking distance then sure, across maps tho? definitely not

Oh no way to shout across map, I am not sure how you measure distance in nwn.

But just an exmaple yell could be displayed like 120 tiles away from pc YElling. IE if you shouted at the East gate campfire you could hear it at the entrance to Thunders map (and the yell should be annonymous you wouldnt know what person yelled).

120 tiles is a lot farther than you think it is.

I would say someone who shouts something at the gate to Baldur's Gate might be heard at the tax tower?
