Title: Assess (arching a brow)
Post by: Chettaman on March 12, 2009, 06:33:33 PM
I think it would be nice if the assess command could have emotes.

Are you trying to crash the game again?

On a serious note: I like this.

Sure. For every command emote added, the game gets smoother. Always smoother. Command emotes make -everything- smoother.

 ???

What would it echo back, though?

Why not for weather and time, while we're at it!

Assess echoes back to the people who see it as:
You notice the big man glance at the small man.

With a command emote, it could simply become:
Head cocked, the big man glances at the small man, long enough for him to notice.

Or it wouldn't have to be different. It could still echo, "looks at you." since you can't really tell if someone's examining you that closely... unless you emote. It works either way, right?

>ass man (stroking ^me chin ponderously)
Stroking his chin ponderously, the tall, muscular man looks at you.
- Stroking his chin ponderously, the tall, muscular man looks at the small, scrawny man.

>weather (stroking ^me chin ponderously as #me gazes up at the sky)
Stroking his chin ponderously as he gazes up at the sky, the tall, muscular man checks the weather.

the weather was a joke. ;D

Assess is a hidden emote, usually only noticeable by the highly perceptive.

You usually recieve the notification, such as a hemote, if you pass the check.

You notice: The tall, muscular man glances at you.

Emoting with assess would probably make it visible, like emoting with several other non-echoing commands makes them visible to everyone.

Also,

QuoteYou notice the tall, muscular man looking over the tall, muscular man.

Should be switched to:

QuoteYou notice the tall, muscular man looking over himself.

Off topic, sort of.
Why don't all commands support emotes? I've used,
>Draw sword (taking a step away from ~target)
so many times... it's heart breaking.
