Speedy Messengers/illusionary messengers and names that are similar.

Post by Hungering » Mon Sep 21, 2020 6:38 pm

So, at present, there is another character named Sei who if I am online at the same time, I tend to receive their illusionary messengers cross-server because my character's name is Seifer. No halfings yet, but I can't even send Sei a messenger without disguising my character as "Not Seifer" for a moment to get the message across. I would recommend some kind of work-around where if you put the name in common, in brackets like [Sei] it sends to Sei and doesn't instead find Seifer Rosemont. Or even something as simple as if someone searches Sei, they get Sei instead of Seifer. I assume this is more a cross-server issue than same server because I don't have it happen too often.

A simple and probably easy solution to this would be if Projected Image would just TELL you the name of your target, like a speedy does, but in the combat log, instead of letting you hope you got the right one.
