:::'kay. Remember, it's a wiki - anyone, including you, is free to edit the page. Presumptuous or not, I didn't randomly prune anything. From a practical perspective, eliminating message spam by having spam-less versions of functions like [[AddItem]] seems much more straightforward and doable than setting a flag that turns off messages from all functions, and it wouldn't step on the toes of existing functions. Likewise, by your own description, '''IsFalling''' would have checked for a jumping animation; if you want a function to check the state of the fall damage timer, then that's a separate request. %N would be trivial to implement as suggested by the OP. :shrug: As it says in the article intro, "Contributions may be editted for a large variety of reasons, from consistency to aesthetics. Please do not take this personally." I certainly won't take it personally if you or anyone else continues to edit the list. The point was to bring some order to it so that future requests would be placed in their respective categories. [[User:Scruggs|Scruggs]] 19:52, 29 November 2006 (EST)

::::Fair enough. '''IsFalling''' was meant to be the actual function - checking the animation state was only a suggested clue for going about this because I do not know how intemately these functions are associated - especially if they could be deliberately dissociated through scripting. I thought '''SetCamera''' would be a great way to encapsulate the current requests while also open OB for easy to create cut-sceens, etc., that required more complicated camera work. But I would not remove other's similar suggestions on this reasoning. '''SetHostile''' is very different from the '''setHitBy (actor) (damage)''' function, since I did not presume there was one kind of hostile state and obviously adding damage directly is not the point here. Message spam is also far more of a general issue than for particular commands ([[AddItem]] being one of the few that you can easily avoid). I don't take this personal but I would not have put up these suggestions if I didn't think they would be useful (relative to what was there already). I do not expect anything from the OBSE team with regards to using these suggestions but I did not expect them to be judiciously removed/reinterpretted either. Anyway, enough said. I appreciate the page and your maintainance of it so no worries, mate. ;) [[User:GuidoBot|GuidoBot]] 21:48, 29 November 2006 (EST)
