Hmm. IS_NPC(ch) is being called on your subject, but you're sending the
string to "ch" with send_to_char. Since the string is always getting to
you, it looks like IS_NPC(ch) is being called on your looking character.
Try changing the argument of IS_NPC to the subject being looked at.
That is:
You call if(!IS_NPC(ch)) - it checks ch
You send a string to ch - it goes to you
Looks like ch is you! Since you're a player, it'll always say "Not a
mob."
Cheers,
