NPC Spell Prep

[Rolis]

Is there a way to tell which critter in a room is prepping a spell?

I am in a room with 3 nymphs.

I get the message a nymph begin to prep a spell. Is there any way to tell which nymph is prepping or prepped the spell?

[drauz]

nope

If you use lich, I have ;showids in the repo that would let you know. It inserts the object ID of anything into the text stream. For example (bolding just for the PC)

[Cendadric's Collectibles]
A large, fancy rosewood desk sits in the middle of this room, a cushioned velvet-covered chair placed precisely behind it. On the wall behind the desk is a large portrait (#-56018) of an elven woman, the colors bright despite its evident age. A large silver chandelier hangs overhead, its myriad of candles lighting the room, while a carved rosewood arch (#-56013) leads farther into the shop. You also see a glass-centered door (#-56016), Cendadric (#-309885) and an old barrel (#114590).
Obvious exits: none

That said, you'll probably get sick of it pretty quick when actually playing the game and seeing the ids everywhere. If you're script-inclined, it could be used as a starting place to only include the id when a creature spell prep is seen.
