ok in a script I am wokring on I am trying to target a mob named Micon but in the same zone there is mob named Miconius. The problem I am having is when I do a /target Micon it always target Miconius instead of Micon. I have been dwelling on this and have tried several ways to fix it but have yet to come up with a solution that works...Anyone have any words of wisdom for me?

try putting it in quotes? /tar "Micon"?
Can't remember how i got around that, it coulda been that way
Or, you could always get the spawn Id of miconis and then /tar micon notid <spawnid of miconis> and see if that works

If both "Micon"s are different levels, you could always
/target micon range 58 58 (assuming he was lvl 58)

Another option is to add it to the alert list. And limit target to noalerts.

I don't think the id would be the same every time it spawns.
Thanks
