OPENing while sitting/resting

Post by Selveem » Sun Nov 20, 2011 1:13 pm

Currently, we can open and close doors while sitting or resting.

I know it sounds stupid and insignificant, but I'd like to change that. If you OPEN <Direction> or CLOSE <Direction> while sitting down, it would be nice if the MUD forced you to stand and open that direction's door (if there is one). It'd be nice if it didn't perform it as two separate lines, as well. Something like this:

You stand and move to open the door to the south.

Or..

You rise from resting and open a hatch leading down.

Something like this? But if not possible, two commands would be alright too.

I can't say I quite get this one. I can open or shut a door from sitting down! At least I do sometimes now and then in real life. (Getting up takes -effort-)

Sure, but most of the time you're not sitting right AT the door, right? Let's say you're in a dungeon.. how many characters are sitting right against it like that? I don't know, it just doesn't seem right; seems awkward

Can't just smote or emote do just that?....

I think it's really time for nothing...

An alias would work too.
Justice is not neccesarily honourable, it is a tolerable business, in essence you tolerate honour until it impedes justice, then you do what is right.

Spelling is not necessarily correct :)

What if I'm sitting on a chair with wheels.
