Add emote to cast

cast 'mon un has cool ideas' jmordetsky (rubbing both temples with closed eyes).

That's it. That my idea.

I'm in favor, but some of the casting echoes might need to be changed.

After the initial echo when someone begins casting, you could replace "Soandso utters an incantation" with, "Rubbing both temples with closed eyes, soandso utters an incantation."

I like.

Oh, right. That'd work nicely.

Ten points for the idea, ten points for brevity. Rock on.

I'm all for it :D

Command emotes for cast would be awesome.  Don't replace the 'utters an incantation' though, I say.  If it's obviously a spell, it's a spell...and we should have a generic message by which to tell.  You can tell if someone tries to grapple you, bash you, kick you, etc etc etc...you should know if they tried to magick you too.

...unless the spell was a sneaky spell...which would be awesome to have too.

I like.

Once in a while J throws an idea that totally makes sense.

This is one of them.
some of my posts are serious stuff

Idea:

> cast (a look of concentration) [eyes snapping open] 'mon un bubble halaster mouthwash'

A look of concentration on his face, croissants begin to swirl around the black mage.

Eyes snapping open, the black mages utters an incantation.

Dude, that would completely screw up my client aliases.

Yeah, I know you use MUSHclient like I do, and I'm not 100% how to get that to work with my client aliases...but damn, would that be cool.

...just put the emote tags at the end.
alias 'cast <spell>'
then you:
cast fireball (fancy emote) [fancy emote]
