>give rock man (emote)

[Jakahri]

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?

[jcarter]

I really like this idea.

[Scarborough]

This would be helpful when dealing with money:
give 30 coins lanky (tossing a small leather pouch to !lanky)

[Ghost]

Good idea.  Looks like it is easy to code as well.

[Moofassa]

Brilliant. Love the idea.

[jmordetsky]

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

[Hexxaex]

I like it.

Someone once said that we'll be able to attach an emote to every single coded command.  Getting closer... :twisted:

[jhunter]

Definitely a cool idea.

[bloodfromstone]

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

[Tamarin]

i wish you could:

throw knife vestric (whipping the blade at ^vestric face)

[jhunter]

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

pls

How about:

Nod man (with a nod)

[Bogre]

All these new nifty commands are why the downtime is worth it

[Tamarin]

How about:

Nod man (with a nod)

No no.  The winner is this:

Code Select Expand

nod man (with a shake of his head)

[Mental Case]

Other commands that need emote with them:

stat
think
score
contact
help

[Hexxaex]

Code Select Expand

>help emote (with glee)

>You pull up the emote help file, with glee.

[bloodfromstone]

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)

[amoeba]

it might help eliminate this silliness I see occasionaly:

Code Select Expand

emote hands ~stone to ~man
give stone man

Considering these give virtually the same message.

[Nusku]

If you haven't already, you might want to idea this in game.

[Jakahri]

I have. =)

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

[jcarter]

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.

[Delirium]

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.

Code Select Expand

>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?
