When you are ina room with another pc/npc and you both are hooded or of the same race and you type 'l ef', it will look at you. Just thinking that though this is obviously not neccesary, it could be changed so that only 'l me' or 'l self' looked at you.
Anybody feel the same way bout this?
I recommend taking it a step further and making a character capable of targetting themselves only by use of me/self. This will also help magickers avoid casting their spells of doom on themselves by mistake.
A good idea.
The -reason- this happens is if you were the last elf to enter, or the last figure. If you were there first, and a figure walks in, 'l figure' will target them.
But still, good idea to switch only 'me' and 'self' as targetable, but that may be harder said than done.

Fully agreed. I hope this gets implemented soon.
Good idea. I'm all for it.
I like it too.
It really hurts when you hastily type "cast '<get incapacipated in a way>' victim" and get incapacipated.
A way to avoid this is to assess -v (keyword) first in order to prevent this sort of misdirect from happening.
And for the love of whatever diety you believe in, USE NAMES INSTEAD OF KEYWORDS WHENEVER POSSIBLE.
Sorry babe, but when you're out and about and you're playing Mr. MageyWagey Face o' Doom, and Mr. Hoodedguywho'sthesameraceasyou comes running up and starts getting all aggro, the LAST thing to cross your mind is "Oh, I better assess him."
You have approximately 3 seconds to get a spell out before you're dead, assess takes up two of them. There needs to be a work around.
Make a macro? It was just a suggestion. :P
I so love mudmaster's tablist. And abuse it too much.

Damned good idea.
