It seems that players can see talk of invisible GM's

I do not know if it proceeds, but according to the report of a friend of mine, he could read i that said when I was invisible. I used the commands ".Set privs 0" and ". Player make" in it, but he still said to be reading what I said. Did not see my character invisible but could read everything I said.

Is this a bug, or a feature? I'm not sure. I'm thinking it might be nice for a GM to be able to talk to people without actually showing up in the game-world.

Is this causing any problems for you?

No, it does not cause any problems for me. But as I said in another topic, many things I do comment, I base myself on the shard I play. I went there GM for a while, and when the GM's are invisible, walking and talking around the world. There the players can not read what they talk unless they appear to attend them. In times, are discussing the behavior of a player, watching some offense, woe if you talk to another GM being invisible and players get to read, that hinder their work. All I reported as a bug, would be to improve the emulator you who is already very good.

But it is up to you what would be interesting or not.

Ok. For the next version I'm making the following changes:

* Implemented support for Yell (1.5 * regular speech distance) and Whisper (1 tile speech distance for players, 3 for GMs).
* Whispering will no longer un-hide players
* Normal players can no longer see the regular speech from hidden GMs (but other GMs and Counselors can)
* Hidden GMs can whisper to be heared by normal players within range (3 tiles)

The fix for this is now available in UOX3 0.99, and on the CVS.
