Say I’m playing a character named Bob who is dressed as E.T., and is wearing an E.T. mask.
I might later be playing a character called Sue, who can look at Bob and refer to him, parser-wise, as Bob or as E.T.
To allow this to happen I have to ‘Understand “E.T.” as Bob.’ Of course, Bob’s mask is called “E.T. mask”
After all that’s in place, if I’m Bob and I type “drop E.T.” in an attempt to drop my mask, I get the disambiguation question:
“Which do you mean, yourself or your E.T. mask?”
Is there a way I can stop character pseudonyms from being offered at disambiguation time? I’ve got a headache here as I’ve got a heap of people in costume and the player might be any one of them. And obviously I don’t only want to stop it happening for ‘drop’.
I previously tried either that or something like it without success, but to make sure, I tried it the way you wrote here and… sadly, it doesn’t do the trick.
Oh cool, I didn’t know you could add qualification to ‘understand’ phrases. Thanks.
And here I was already starting to hack Aaron Reed’s ‘Numbered Disambiguation Choices’ to eliminate ‘yourself’ as an option. I had made some progress, too!
