First vs 1st

Code: Select all

Changes in the fabric of time and space has made it possible to state
ones intentions through the use of ordinal suffixes.

It's now possible to do:
   drop 21st coin
Where previously one had to type:
   drop twentyfirst coin

@Morg

Morg, a copper coin, a grotesque troll, ...

exa it = exa morg
exa second it = exa 2nd it = exa copper coin
exa third it = exa 3rd it = exa grotesque troll

* it * stands for everything, I guess that is what you are looking for!

Thanks Cot for the update!

P.s: DO NOT 'kill it' when teaming with Knight. *it* here will stands for their warhorse, do the math!

Yes, but "it" or "thing" applies to corpses as well and they game won't let you kill a corpse. (Unless it's a reanimated one..)
Also, cycling through each "it" is tedious and would hamper those with an already slow typing speed such as myself.

Also, is the order they appear in the <i> response the same as what is considered first, second, third, etc..? It makes it difficult when comparing gear or trying to drop a specific item, especially containers.


An aside..
On Tutori Isle, I used "kill creature" and it worked for everything. Was surprised when I did <kill creature> and it came back with "Kill what?" after the tutorial.. Perhaps this is a global change that could be investigated?

"Creature" working on every living non-player would be great !
