Rather than sawpping the NPCs around, a better way is to move the new topic to the NPC. That way all the old topics are still there, and any attributes that have changed will still be changed.

However, the way I recommend is to run the topic's "show" script. In code it looks like this (for a topic called "new_conv_topic"):

Code:

do (new_conv_topic, "show")

If you want to do it through the GUI, look for the script called "Run an object's script attribute". The first drop-down will already be "name". In the second one select your topic, and in the third it should be "name" again. Now type "show" (no quotes, all lower case) in the last box:

Run object [name] [new_conv_topic] script attribute [name] [show]

The advantage of doing it that way is it keeps all the topics for that NPC in one place.
