17093, waylay name game
Posted by waylayer on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Is it by design that you AFAIK have to input the intended waylayee's whole name in order to successfully waylay them? I can murder, ko, etc. with only the first couple letters of an opponent's name, but when it comes to waylaying, they'll walk right past unless I have the whole name punched in. Kinda frustrating with some of the difficult-to-spell/long names some people have.

I've tweaked it so that if you do 'waylay <partial name>' AND you can see them, it will correctly set your target to their full name. If you cannot see them however, you'll still be in this state.
