Trigger a speaker when spotting an AI?

I have an AI patrolling around, and I want to trigger a voice-over when the player gets a good look at him. The vo is commenting on the AI's appearance, so it won't make sense if the player says it when the AI is far away.

 

What is the best way to accomplish this? I don't want a static trigger, since the player could trigger it when the AI is at a different spot on his patrol.

 

I was thinking about maybe def_attaching a trigger to the AI, so it moves with them, but I don't know if that's even possible, or if there is perhaps a better option.

 

Anyone know an effective way of doing something like this?

      Finally got round to publishing a tutorial on baking normal maps in Blender, since most of the ones we have are inaccessible or years out of date.

      The FAQ wiki is almost a proper FAQ now. Probably need to spin-off a bunch of the "remedies" for playing older TDM versions into their own article.

      Was checking out old translation packs and decided to fire up TDM 1.07. Rightful Property with sub-20 FPS areas yay! ( same areas run at 180FPS with cranked eye candy on 2.12 )

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.
