have noa keep talking when u leave his interface

make noa work like the radio did, not saying to change him, i like it, just saying make it so u can press esc and he’ll keep talking

Reported via F8, too. Yeah, it is confusing and annoying that he stops talking when you exit. I can’t think of any other audio that does that

I purposely close the interface so he’ll shut up. I especially don’t want to hear all the “do you remember” about the colonists. I don’t care what he “thought” or how he “felt” about the colonists because he’s capable neither of thinking nor feeling.

I think it’s good they’re working on voice audio files not playing over one another, but would agree that you shouldn’t have to go through the entirety of NoA’s menus to get back to the point you were when interrupted, but, unlike colonists logs, etc., I don’t see an issue with requiring the player to stay put when in NoA’s interface. Continuance might be good for speed runners, but I prefer to choose when to listen and when not.

this would be a nice quality of life change. Time I spend staring at NOA like a braindead dope is time I’m not spending having fun.
