can target be made to effect none agro spells e.g. heal spells. Would be cool
to cast 'true heal' and then target the tank you wanted to heal... or in fact
change the target at the last second.

It would have to be a separate skill. Spellcasting requires one to focus
greatly on the task, which is why one can't skill and spell at the same time I
suppose, and changing your focus so suddenly would disrupt the magical flow.

I think he wants it so I can type "target moss", then type "cast true heal"
and it would be cast at moss.

Why would non-agro spells requires one to 'focus greatly on the task' when
offensive spells can change target n+1 times between starting cast and spell
going off, without any special skills needed to do so?

I would belive you if psionicst could not focus on unlimited number of minds
and still target how ever they see fit. Or that psionicist have different
meaning for the word \'focus\'.

A :-D hits you.

If you do impliment make sure it's a secondary target system, or else many
nubu healers might accidently heal the mob they just witherfleshed, etc.
