Where to use inventory: I was wondering what you think.

Hi

something has always occurred to me and I was wondering what you think.

Let's say you are in a room. You are are in leg chains. There is a cassette player just out of reach. However, with your belt you can reach the cassette player and move it closer to you.

Now, as a game player, would you expect to use the belt (inv) on yourself to run events or on the object (cassette player) to run events or either?

I would like to know your views

cheers

Personally I'd expect to use it on the object.

Yeah, why would you use it on yourself to reach some object?
If you allowed this, people who tried to use the belt on themselves would suddenly watch their character go for the cassette player, certainly not what they expected.

You don't shoot at yourself to hit an enemy, right?

You could instead have the belt being part of your inventory from beforehand, or have it so that when you click yourself, you pull off your belt, and it gets placed in your inventory.

I'd expect the character to hang himself if I'd use the belt on him - Game over!

You kill me man  

anyhow, have decided to use them on objects (in most cases)..
