I've previousely posted something about connecting the usr to a mob/object
Its been misunderstood as fireing something at the person.
Well i've dicided to refrase it.

What if you had you as the usr.
You have a laso(not as an object in your inventory).
Lets say the mob/object is in a distance of about 4 squares away.
Again, i repeat i do not want a fireing code.
I want to connect the rope(laso) from me to the obj/mob.
in otherwords, a visable icon that you can see in all 3 squares betwine us.
LITERALLY the rope is connecting us.

You'd need a function to draw a line(AbyssDragon's Math libary has one), and then just draw the laso on every turf the function returns.

e.g.
for(var/turf/t in get_line(mob1,mob2))
    new /laso(t.loc)
