Currently it wouldn't be simple to make. The largest problem is that, to my knowledge, default text can't be turned off. What I'd like is two commands:

disablechatdrawing; //stops Graal from drawing #c over players' heads and leaves it open for a gani script to do so instead

disablechatbox; //stops Graal from automatically sending the contents of the chat bar to the server, instead triggering the player with the text as a param, so it could be interpreted like this:

NPC Code:

if(actionplayerchats){
if(strequals(#p(0),/sit)){
//do sitting stuff
}
//check other commands
else{
setplayerprop #c,#p(0);
}
}
