Disambiguating: something held vs not held

Hey All:

If I have 3 different cards in a room, and the player is holding one of them, and tries to put it in a container, how can I get I7 to automatically insert the carried card into the container without asking which card they mean?

I tried adding

Does the player mean inserting something held into the box:
	it is very likely.

but this didn’t help. I keep swearing I won’t do any more multiples, but then I keep doing it, and disambiguation keeps killing me.

Oh, for heaven’s sake. It wasn’t working because I had the cards privately-named. I removed that and now it works.

Nothing to see here.
