The LOOK command

Written by: Keroc, the Starborn

Addressed to: Everyone


I've gone through and rewritten the very old code for the LOOK verb, please let me know if you notice anything strange with it.

As a side note, I've changed LOOK AT <person> <worn item> to be much smarter with the following:
- Cannot be used to bypass HIDE and other hiding methods anymore, unless you have the ability to see through them.
- You can now use LOOK AT RAZMAEL 3.HAT as a way to find a specific worn item.
- The orb of concealment from Enchantment will prevent others from looking closely at your worn items.
- Lastly, I've added a small deceit check to looking at worn items that are concealed, rather then hard hiding them, as I think it could be neat for roleplay.
* The check is based upon your Vision skillrank vs. their Vision skillrank.
* Failing it will just notify the target that you're looking closely at their clothing.
* It's got a difficulty bonus, so it is more likely to be caught.
* You can look at HELP DECEIT for further information.

Penned by my hand on Gosday, the 25th of Haernos, in the year 497 MA.
