>swap
You can't do that while being digested!

>att wall
You fumble around with your orange vultite lance in the extremely close quarters, but can't manage to successfully hit the roa'ter's stomach wall with such a large weapon!
Roundtime: 6 sec.

And this went on, and on, and on.

for about 2-3 minutes just could do nothing and just watched my char die.
Too large a weap... if you fight roa'ters, youre dead. end of story.

What's the problem exactly? You took a knife out but it was in your left hand, and then you couldn't swap to use the knife to cut yourself out instead of the lance? And you couldn't stow the lance?

Not sure which folder it was, but when roa'ters were changed to do this to people a couple months ago, someone posted a log of themselves cutting their way out, and I'm pretty sure that person did not have a knife or other small weapon in his hand to begin with. So unless he was swallowed empty-handed, he must have been able to stow his weapon since you obviously can't swap. I'll try to find it...

How about just the command SHEATH? It could be something where it limits the verbs you can use severely, so that something simple like SHEATH might be allowed but not something way more broad like PUT or WTRICK. Otherwise, it could be just a unique problem for the lance being too big (the fact that wtrick sheath doesn't normally work with a lance supports this argument), but I doubt it's a problem for most other weapons. Rimalon's katana worked and that is a two-handed weapon.

Roa'ter tummies have been updated to allow SWAPping while you're getting snacked on. Please let me know if there are any other verbs that should be allowed that currently are prohibited.
