Current state of Conversationalist NPC?

Hello folks,

as I am continuing my adventures in SotA with a lot of fun I also started diving into adding some conversationalists to my plot(s). Is there a way to add player entered text to them? like they have to type a word themselves to find and continue the npc dialogue? I can't find anything on this on the forums or Inky website.

Another question I have is, from Ravalox's post and Chris' reply in the following thread: https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/f...ple-inky-script-showing-new-functions.170311/

* A quest complete flag that delivers a reward from the NPC's "inventory"
* The flag prevents players from repeating quests and depleting the inventory
* A function to send mail to the owner of the NPC (would need to pull the engaged players character name to be put in the subject line (mail should arrive from the NPC's name)

Was any progress made on this or in general to extend the Conversationalist NPC use in-game?
What is the current state and latest information about this, as this thread was already from Oct 20 - 2021 ...

 

nothing on this?
