Title: is 'Squeeze' a command??
Post by: greasygemo on August 03, 2012, 04:02:26 AM
Don't ask why.. I tried typing squeeze 'something' in a room and it said .. no one here by that name...?

.....

Can I squeeze someone?!

Is this a hug or a choke squeeze?

Type help squeeze, and if there's no helpfile, it's probably a social (a canned emote).

Or just RP it.

Defenestrate should be a command.  It'd make the game like 1000% cooler.

The helpfile for it points to "help skill throw."

Which unfortunately doesn't shed much light on the matter  :-\

Gotta find me a newb and a window, one of these days.

Would it not be more accurate for this helpfile to point to 'help skill subdue'? The throwing skill, as you well know, is not invoked when ejecting PCs from windows.

The helpfiles for Subdue (http://www.armageddon.org/help/view.php?name=Skill%20Subdue) and Release (http://www.armageddon.org/help/view.php?name=release) are about as helpful as Throw (http://www.armageddon.org/help/view.php?name=Skill%20Throw) when it comes to 'throwing' PCs in a given direction.

Drat, I'm pretty sure I had a chat transcript where this got figured out. Seemed to have misplaced it though.

defenestration doesn't necessarily refer to a person

Once someone defenestrated a whole city (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defenestrations_of_Prague).

No, not really.
