It supersedes your @Look_place when set, but does NOT change it.
@look_place me is grinning, cutting through the Mix like a house on fire.
@temp_place me is leaning against the bar.
You go north.
Your @temp_place will automatically clear and your @look_place will return.
Have fun!

I would really just love it if a change were made so instead of being absent, it included you in the description with your look/temp place.

First, to notify the whole room when a TP of LP changes. Like an emote I guess.
Second I'd like to have shorter commands as synonyms for all _places, we can really use '@lp' or even 'lp'!
That's it! Things are great! Thanks!

Is immersion breaking. We have no way of converting your third person look_place into a first person message. It's just... not foolproof.
As for an emote when someone changes their look_place, this would actually cause more problems than solutions I think. Normally, what I see from players who are RPing:
.walk into the bar and .head over to a stool, sitting down.
@look_place me is perched on a stool at the bar.
If we then added in the emote it would then add an additional:
Seven is perched on a stool at the bar.
And that would be third person only. You wouldn't see your own, and if you did it would show up like an emote instead of a pose, because of pose requiring special syntax.
Again, great ideas but the implementation doesn't seem like it would live up to the possible immersion breaking effects it could have, or the hacky code I'd have to write to make it happen.
Now, there is some good news!
@lp / @tp / @sp :)
