Just curious of what applications this would be used for?

 

[randomguy_01]

As I posted this earlier when i originally wrote it- I don't know of anything too useful for this to be used for. I pretty much wrote this because I was bored.

i have a newbie question. plugins like this, and others such as mq2gank or mq2csum... do these warp your character to the position similar to mq2hail, or does it actually perform the placement of the item, or the corpse summon from where you stand? im a very conservative MQ2 user and i avoid using warp or zone commands, as a matter of fact those plugins are usually not loaded.

thank you!

Just a thought, but wouldnt this be handy to use in a macro for placing the new traps and oh what are those healing things called again...
