@ogfail

@ogfail

command: @ogfail <object> = <message> attribute: ogfail

sets the message (prefixed by the player's name) that is shown to others in the same room when someone tries to give away <object> but fails because they didn't pass the object's give lock.

function references and %-substitutions are allowed in give failure messages, and are evaluated when someone tries to give away the object. in function references, 'me' refers to the object being given away, while %-substitutions that refer to the enactor (such as %n, %#, %p, etc) refer to the (attempted) giver.

example: @ogfail blob = tries to give away a sticky blob of goo.
