Question What to change so %send% %actor% will send a message to %actor% while in OLC?

Hi everyone,

Our head builder is working on a tutorial zone. One of our mechanics requires that players actually go into OLC-mode (writing) in order to complete the level-up process. In the tutorial, our builder would like to %send% messages to the player while they are in the (writing) mode, to coach them through the steps required for leveling up.

For the life of me I have been unable to get this to work. I can make it so that ALL channels are visible while in OLC but no matter what I have tried %send% does not penetrate.

Anyone have any insight or a solution? Thanks!

This isn't an answer because I can't help with coding problems. However, %send% isn't a channel. Wouldn't it possibly be easier to make a channel that could be accessed through triggers? Or, since you can make all channels visible, why not trigger a mob to use say?

We made wiznet visible in OLC for this very reason. You can also use the send command. Or model your new channel after it.
