Game Mechanics: /target requires line of sight?

He said it was likely, confusion happens when you all argue things in the wrong threads. But it wasn't introduced with Kanras' last update to targetting, it's existed since shortly after Kunark.

Can we get an actual current developer to comment on whether this is intended or not? And if it is intended, why remove this important classic mechanic? If you wanted to combat a seb training problem, you could ban the people training since that's already against the server rules.

At this point nothing you're posting is furthering the purpose of the bug report, you're just provoking and trolling. Regardless of the reason it's in, it's not intended and it will be worked on. The bug's origin is irrelevant to you or the discussion.

You said clearly that this was intended. And now you say it isn't. That's kind of the point. You're the only one trolling around here.

Something else to add that might be related to this bug. When trying to /assist someone on a mob/person who is not in LoS, /assist does not work. I assume this is because /assist does some sort of /target behind the scenes.

Without supporting your trolling discussion, yes I second that issue:
/assist <puller> should work based on whether or not the puller is in assist range, regardless of where the target of the puller is. We used this in PoSky bridges back in the days - for group invites and corpse summons, mages would try to pop an Eye of Zomm on isle 1, and others would assist them to invite their target to the corpse summon group. But - different issue. Different bug report?
