Would it be possible to have someone press a beep verb, select a user, and a sound rings only on the person selected's computer?
It'd be a good thing to add to BYOND Homes and BYOND Chat Rooms.

I dont know if it would work. try this: M << "^G Wakeup!" it might need to be wrapped inside something. readup on displaying ascii code characters. |

Actually something cool about DM is the <BEEP> tag it beeps the server when used.

Yes that tag is kind of annoying. Though if you want someones attention it's the way to go. (just don't put it in communication verbs, ick!)

something like:
Beep(mob/M as mob in world)
M >> 'beep.wav'
*shrug* But if not code then i dont know.
hope i helped.
