Default value: false

When the player enters a verb and one or more nouns, the parser will perform disambiguation to determine what game object(s) match the player's input. You can use these qualifiers to narrow down potential matches. For example, if your verb only acts on tangible objects, like "take" for instance, then set "tangible: true". If your verb only applies to characters, like "talk to", then uncomment "character: true". For more information, see NounMustBe. For more information about creating Verbs or modifying Verbs, see How to Use Verb Subscriptions, How to Use Verb Phase Hooks, How to Use Verb Event Hooks, Verb Anatomy, Verb Process, or How to Modify Verbs.
