I was just thinking about this when I was talking to Developous about debug verbs. The ability to overload an operator would be nice. You could just create a debug mob and overload it's "<<" operator to redirect whatever is sent IN to another mob. Say, for instance, text. That way, you could create a debug mob to test text functions, like Say, Whisper, etc.

I believe there is already a way to check any output given to a mob, and so you could create this yourself. I am not sure though. If not, a way to check output given to a mob in the form of text or browser pages and whatnot would be quite handy ,and then we could do the redirecting manually :)

I would love the ability to define operators.
This would be useful for let's say for this or any other system. When you use += on a /guild, it would call Add_Member() or whatever the proc is, with the right-hand argument of the +=. So make a guild and add memebers would be so much easier.
Voila! Or try a custom stats variable. <dm> stat PlusEqual(right_hand_value)//Funny way of operator overload. if(!(isnum(right_hand_value))) return . Add(right_hand_value) var value = 0 max_value = 0 New(_value , _max_value) if(_value) if(_max_value < _value) _max_value = _value max_value = round( (_max_value)?_max_value : _value ) value = min( max(_value,0) , max_value ) proc/Add(n) value = min(max(value + n, 0), max_value) mob var/stat/health New() ..() health = new(rand(50,100),100) verb/Heal() health += max(round(health.max_value / 5, 1), 1) src << "You restore 20% health." | ||
