Warning when using lamp of fire w/ certain gods

When using the lamp of fire there's the risk that you'll hit an ally and incur penance (not sure about stone since I rarely use) when worshipping certain gods like TSO or Oka. No warning is given, and I have done this multiple times. I'm probably not the only one. Many thanks to the dev who implements this.

Fan of gales also causes collision damage which causes penance too. aiming projectiles at enemies with allies on the other end or just "tabbing" with a projectile weapon also doesnt give any warning.

I've had air elementals get pissed at me after spamming multiple fans in a row - it never really occurred to me that this is what was happening until I used a phantom mirror on the royal jelly, evoked a fan and was suddenly fighting two royal jellies.

Worse is when you evoke two elemental stones at once; the damage along the walls really takes down allies including the elementals you just summoned previously.
