## About The Pull Request Separate verb and PR from #89375 because this is something you'd apply on top of a mob with existing behaviour, or one you've used the other verb on. This will probably conflict with my other PR but that's my problem. This adds a shortcut for making mobs say/emote stuff randomly on a timer from a list of things you have specified. Doing this via VV is possible but sufficiently complicated that I don't think anyone would ever bother. As with the other PR you can optionally do this to mobs who already have a client if you want them to randomly burp every so often or something. I briefly flirted with the idea of replacing all `/datum/ai_planning_subtree/random_speech` subtypes with blackboard ones but... I think probably actually we save some memory _and_ sanity by not doing that. A bunch of mobs on totally different typepaths use the `/insect` subtype for instance, and I don't think it would be an improvement to paste the same four vars into all of their blackboards. ## Why It's Good For The Game This one is frankly more niche than the other PR probably but it is plausibly useful if you are setting up some kind of VV creature.
