The Open Cave

During the recent Q&A with the TOC team I asked about new KI commands and it was suggested I start a thread for suggested KI commands.
So, here is the list from the Emotes you'd like to see thread in the mystonline forum
I have included the sensible ones and hopefully the TOC team could do proper avatar actions for them (hey, I can hope )

/headbang - for dancing to rock music
/waltz - for dancing to slow music
/spin or /pirouette
/hug - to greet a friend
/afteryou - to indicate that you don't mind someone else going first
/airguitar - another rock music one
/airsax
/airdrums
/curtsey
A fingers-in-ears “I can't hear you” emote => Creating Male animation
An index-finger-to-lips “shhhh” emote
An /akimbo emote, which would be a stable emote like /sit or /afk
A chin-scratching “hmmmm....” emote: /think
/continuous or /autodance
/pickup
/embarrassed
/blushes
/run in circles while screaming
/I gotta pee dance
/gyrate
/pimpslap or /slap (For those unruly trolls one can run into in the cavern)
/backrub
/eat
/duck
/Throw
/sleep (as an alternative to /afk? Because sleeping with your face on your knee like that doesn't seem all too comfortable... )
/phaser
/ticklesyou
/moonwalk
/makemyselfbelieve (for Kemo Firelies to pop up everywhere!)
/elbows "so and so" in the ribs
/goes into grumpy mode
/fall (is there a 'fall helplessly backwards on the but with feet kicking up and then rising, then recovering and rubbing bruised parts' suggestion in this thread?)
/leanforward and /leanback
/putthelimeinthecoconutanddrinkthembothtogether => Not possible
/doabarrelroll => implemented

Emotes are a little bit more complicated as simple KI-commands... I think you saw what happen if I try to make an animation (/wtf /wave2...). But let's see what I can do

Certainly one of the Emotes should be a /dance2 Emote. Many explorers have made this suggestion in Moula, also maybe a /dance Emote that would just keep dancing until you did a /stopdance Emote. Either of these would be helpful.

I have take a closer look into the emotelist, and I thinkthere are a few of them, which can be done. But I have a few questions:
1. Can I edit your first post Alien? So I could show what can/can't be done or what is done.
2. What did you mean with "doabarrelroll"? I think about an animation where the avatar rolls over the floor...
3. Do you want the Kemo Fireflies are able to spwan in every age with "makemyselfbelieve"?
4. I don't really understand the "fall" command. I don't know what you mean feet kicking up...

Opa

Opa you may edit my post to show what is and isn't possible.
As for explaining the suggestions, please remember that I only thought of the first few in that list and the others were suggested in the thread I linked to. I'll try to explain them as best I can though.

/doabarrelroll - this probably means a horizontal spin. It comes from an aircraft manoeuvre that doesn't translate to an avatar motion too well, but I guess at either a forward spin (similar to your new /crazy emote) or a spin clockwise from left to right (or anticlockwise from right to left).

/makemyselfbelieve - This I took to mean that instead of going to Eder Kemo and walking through the fireflies to collect, they'd just spawn where you are and be flying around you unless you ran, jumped or were in rain.

/fall - This I imagined was like slipping on ice, falling on your bum, momentum carrying you back so you were lying on your back with your legs & feet rising in the air, then getting up again and looking really embarrassed.

@Alien, I already did a /getbugs command that is giving you the fireflies if you are in Gira/Kemo. In other ages it is much more difficult. However, this is one of the commands I plan to release soon...

@Opa, don't know the barrel roll? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wIkJvY96i8w It's from Star Fox 64.

Or there is this example on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4OloqBg ... re=related

I can make an animation like this very fast, hehehe.

To who wants to know: Barrel roll = Querruder-Rolle

As for Headbang. Maybe a continous nodding would suffice (though I would like to see a raised arm doing that)

I'm heading into an all-out war...Pillow throwing!!!
