Speak

Speak is an action that lets the Helper Companion play an audio asset.

Basics

If you use spoken instructions in your training, it is best to have the Helper Companion play them back with the Speak Action. This reinforces the user's impression of having a real companion with them and thus has a deepening effect on immersion and a positive impact on learning success.
