Possible bug with pov_possessive

18 Dec 2018, 16:25I think i might have found a bug in the display of the pov_possessive or maybe I'm just missing something.
It appears as if it's displaying the regular possessive instead of the player possessive.
A simple demonstration:
<asl version="580">
<include ref="English.aslx" />
<include ref="Core.aslx" />
<game name="debug">
</game>
<object name="room">
<inherit name="editor_room" />
<isroom />
<object name="player">
<inherit name="editor_object" />
<inherit name="editor_player" />
<inherit name="namedmale" />
</object>
</object>
<verb>
<property>debug</property>
<pattern>debug</pattern>
<defaultexpression><![CDATA["gender: " + object.gender + ", possessive: " + object.possessive + ", article: " + object.article + "<br>pov gender: " + object.pov_gender + ", pov possessive: " + object.pov_possessive + ", pov article: " + object.pov_article]]></defaultexpression>
</verb>
</asl>
This returns:
> debug me
gender: you, possessive: his, article: yourself
pov gender: you, pov possessive: your, pov article: yourself
I would expect game.pov.possessive to return the same a game.pov.pov_possessive.

The corrections to Core.aslx can be seen here, if interested:

I was actually looking on GitHub, but couldn't find out where the bug was. Now I know why :)
