>give rock man (emote)

Started by Jakahri, December 18, 2005, 02:56:43 AM

Now that we can emote while standing/sitting/resting and such, I thought it would also benefit the playerbase if one could give emotes while handing items to people.

ie

>give rock man (sliding the pebble along the bartop)

>Sliding the pebble along a bartop, the tall, muscular man gives a rock to the small, puny male.

Thoughts? Or is this already in the game?

No doubt. *flex*


This would be helpful when dealing with money:
give 30 coins lanky (tossing a small leather pouch to !lanky)
es, Narnia, the film that teaches kids that Jesus is a lion that kills people by biting them in the face...

Good idea.  Looks like it is easy to code as well.
some of my posts are serious stuff

Brilliant. Love the idea.

I would really love if most commands could have this style emote attached to it.

I like it.

Someone once said that we'll be able to attach an emote to every single coded command.  Getting closer... :twisted:
*blank* hmms to himself, carefully peeing across the ground.

Thumbs up. It will save us from spam, since most of us like to emote giving anyway... This would be much smoother than emote tosses ~cloak to ~Bob.;give cloak bob
eeling YB, you think:

i wish you could:

throw knife vestric (whipping the blade at ^vestric face)
quote="mansa"]emote pees in your bum[/quote]

Yeah, this could work with so many commands to have this option available.

How about:

Nod man (with a nod)
*blank* hmms to himself, carefully peeing across the ground.

All these new nifty commands are why the downtime is worth it :)
I tripped and Fale down my stairs. Drink milk and you'll grow Uaptal. I know this guy from the state of Tenneshi. This house will go up Borsail tomorrow. I gave my book to him Nenyuk it back again. I hired this guy golfing to Kadius around for a while.

Quote from: "Hexxaex"How about:

Nod man (with a nod)

No no.  The winner is this:

nod man (with a shake of his head)
quote="mansa"]emote pees in your bum[/quote]

Other commands that need emote with them:

stat
think
score
contact
help

>help emote (with glee)

>You pull up the emote help file, with glee.
*blank* hmms to himself, carefully peeing across the ground.

In all seriousness, I'd like to have a get emote tag, too.

get sword (bending slowly at the knees, his eyes not leaving ~man)
eeling YB, you think:
    "I can't believe I just said that."

it might help eliminate this silliness I see occasionaly:

emote hands ~stone to ~man
give stone man


Considering these give virtually the same message.

If you haven't already, you might want to idea this in game.
Welcome all to curtain call
At the opera
Raging voices in my mind
Rise above the orchestra
Like a crescendo of gratitude

I have. =)

The funny thing is that one item on your list already has an emote tag attached to it.

We get it,  your reasoning for not wanting this attached to it is that you feel it's superfluous.

Just don't use it then.

Rock on.

Another suggestion.

Add emotes to 'remove' and 'wear' commands, pre-emotes allowed only so that the tattoo revealing-covering code isn't screwed with.

I can think of a vast amount of possibilities for those two that would make a lot of things more seamless.

>rem (flicking it from behind his right ear) smoke
Flicking it from behind his right ear, the spiced-up man stops using a fat tube of spice.

>wear (tugging on a thin cotton undershirt first) cuirass
Tugging on a thin cotton undershirt first, the lanky woman wears a beetle-carapace cuirass, covering a few jagged scars.

>rem (revealing a few scars mingled with the tattoo sprawling across his skin) shirt
Revealing a few scars mingled with the tattoo sprawling across his skin, the fat man stops using a frilly silk shirt, revealing a lusty dragon tattoo.

>wear (snugly lacing up the leather ties) bracer
Snugly lacing up the leather ties, the burly warrior woman wears a supple goudra-hide bracer, covering a tattoo of a dancing halfling.



Who's with me, eh?  Eh?
