Currently, we have stuff like:
This is incredabley useful and neat. But it does cause some problems. For example



I see: You points at Orti as he cries, laughing malevolently.
Orti sees: Iytha points at you as you cries, laughing malevolently.
Everyone else sees: Iytha points at Orti as he cries, laughing malevolently.

I would suggest that I be able to do the following:



That would produce:

I see: You point at Orti as he cries, laughing malevolently.
Orti sees: Iytha points at you as you cry, laughing malevolently.
Everyone else sees: Iytha points at Orti as he cries, laughing malevolently.

That's a lot to type... I'd typo that so badly.

emote up to ^Myrkr and ^Myrkr_her.

I don't think we're supposed to be able to emote the other person's reaction.

For example, if you did "Emote points at ^orti as ^orti_he cries, laughing malevolently", that would be okay, albeit a bit unfair (since Orti may or may not wish to cry). However, if you tried, say...

Emote thwaps ^Fain and points at ^Fain as ^Fain_he cries, laughing malevolently.

That would make no sense, even if you got thwapped by Fain for it afterwards. Fain wouldn't be crying in the first place.

Not to mention it might be a bit of a headache to code. Unless you made it specifically POV.

In that specific example, Orti was already crying beforehand.
Here is another example:





That is the general idea.

Yes, but while you might be scrupulous about it, other people might not. So you can have someone in effect force you to cry/whine/whimper through their emoting, which isn't a good idea.

This reminds me of a question I had. Is there a way to do possessives in emotes?

Look at HELP EMOTING.

All you have to do is put a 's after the emote or em.

Like if you did...

EMOTE 's feet move to the beat.

It would show...

Amyranth's feet move to the beat.

I love how Orti is now seen as a crybaby

and no controlling of other people's actions, please
