What's the source on this one?
Just assumed this was right, if people could post the topics where the changes have been hashed out already that would be great.
Well this was based on my personal memory but has been mentioned a few times here in the past(lost in the thousands of posts over time).

Here is some proof since memory shouldn't be relied upon though..

You don't need to give the key to the friend of the house; If he push the
door even if he can't enter, he will have refreshed it.

Highly, confident that this same mechanism would be present in the original OSI code if you want to take the time to look. In fact, I guarentee you will.

It doesn't look like this can be fixed :/
The target is simply flagged "benificial", it's the client that making the determination that it would be a criminal action to heal an orange. If we removed this flag, you would not get the prompt when healing a grey or red :/

I have quite a few of these items done and tested already. No specific ETA yet.

The idea behind this patch is "small goodies", if we can keep it to that, as opposed to changing potentially combat related mechaincs that are going to require client side reconfigurations (for example fixing use delays) i think we can get this out fast.

That's what I initially assumed, will remove.

- The "stop" command should not wipe previous commands and be a mirror image of the "stay" command quite like how the "kill" and "attack" command works the same.

I thought this was all already in other than pets with spaces in their names.

Well (tame) should also display above the pet's name, not on the same line. (guarded) will remain, even if your pets are stabled, this needs to be fixed as well... So I am hesitant to add all of those because that's about 6 taming changes right there, worthy of its own patch or category within a patch.

I initially had assumed the (tame) tag was a part of the name much like the (invulnerable) and (frozen) tags, but it was actually above the name after doing some research on it.

Good call on that Hemp.
