I dont see it as that close. Most likely a bug. It is likely not intended to work that way and was the result of the way the code handled riders. Even if they cannot see you in the room can they target you such as "poke hoch" or "kill hoch"?

It's definitely a bug. The close call that I'm referring to is which fix gets implemented. From what I understand, they can "kill hoch" and it will target him, even though they can't see him. That is a bug. Which fix do you employ, though? Do you make it so Hoch is visible and the rider is invisible, or with the logic in my first suggestion a few posts ago, do you make anything an invisible character touches also become invisible?

From Dulrik's post, it looks like he's going to make Hoch visible.

If Hoch is not invisible, it's not a bug for them to be able to 'kill hoch'. It's a bug that they don't see him when you type 'look'. So my solution will be to check for invisibility state on both and show the mounted line if both are visible, a normal mount if the rider is invisible, rider riding 'someone' if the mount is invisible and nothing if both are invisible.
