Scry and the new Disguise
Posted: Sat Jan 19, 2019 2:22 am
As much as I love that Disguise is back, one of my characters being a Rogue, I have to report this bug because my other character is a mage..
Basically, previously regardless of Disguise (afaik) you could "-scry Joe Bloggs" even if they were disguised, and you'd know it was them and that was the ruling, there's more to it of course but the particulars can be found here: http://wiki.arelith.com/Console_command#-scry
However if Joe Bloggs is now disguised, using "-scry Joe Bloggs" gives you a warning that that player could not be found.
As far as i'm aware a -disguise is entirely mundane and shouldn't be blocking scriers from scrying in terms of IG sense and logic.
I have no idea if the new way the disguise system was brought in will allow for a scry work around but I figured it was best you know just in case there is.
Thank you.
