Hi all,

So, I have been tinkering with throwing out some emotes to kinda deepen my roleplay on a specific character. He happens to be a water mage, and as such can summon a water shield sort of force field thing.. What I want is while the spell is active I want to have an emote trigger once in a while that the shield is flaring to deflect some of the damage.. how is this done..

As well as I want to set up a trigger for a different type of "say"... so instead of it saying Adalmus says, "Blah." it could say Adalmus says softly, "Blah." and this would apply to all future say commands.. is this a possible feature on the client end?

That could quite easily be done actually, its all about using variable placeholders.
and overriding the standard commands

inflection=softly
#ALIAS say {emote says @inflection, ~"%params~"}

as for the deflection thing

#TR "deflecting" {some message when a deflection would occur} {emote some deflecty bit;#T- deflecting;#ALARM "keepDeflecting -60 {#T+ deflecting}}

That will only fire once a minute.

You might also wanna through in an error checker to ensure it never gets stuck in the off position.

#EVENT onConnect {#T+ deflecting}

The say alias is just making me literally say %params~
