NEW COMMANDS AND NEW MUD BEHAVIOR:
|
||||
---------------------------------
|
||||
** Over 100 new socials, check them out and feel free to suggest new ones.
|
||||
|
||||
** You will now be notified when you have new mail.
|
||||
|
||||
** New toggles: autoloot, autogold, autosplit, autosac, and autoassist.
|
||||
|
||||
** Improved toggle command allowing more options.
|
||||
|
||||
** You can now use the history command to see the last 100 communications
|
||||
from all the channels. It clears upon viewing or log off.
|
||||
|
||||
** Your mail will now be saved so you will not lose it when you log off.
|
||||
|
||||
** You can now use the AFK toggle to let people see you are gone under
|
||||
who.
|
||||
|
||||
** You now have almost 180 stock zones to play.
|
||||
|
||||
** You can now interact with rooms, mobs, and objects through triggers.
|
||||
|
||||
** Multiple objects will now be stacked and preceeded by a quantity so
|
||||
your inventory won't be as long. (3) A waybread.
|
||||
|
||||
** Over 100 new socials, and the gemote command to use socials over the
|
||||
gossip channel. Socials can now target bodyparts too, behave.
|
||||
|
||||
** You can now use color! @RHELP COLORCODES@n.
|
||||
|
||||
** Added new invisible mobs and objects so everything may not be as it
|
||||
appears (not even visible with detect invis).
|
||||
|
||||
** Added an online dictionary. Tell m-w <word>.
|
||||
|
||||
** The player description length has been increased so please write a
|
||||
decent description for yourself.
|
||||
|
||||
** You can now set your pagelength with the same command.
|
||||
|
||||
** You can now "look around" to see anything of interest in the room. But,
|
||||
some things may still be hidden and require further investigation.
|
||||
|
||||
** You can now use "all" and "all.x" very generally with the get, put,
|
||||
drop, junk, donate, give, wear and remove commands. Type HELP GET
|
||||
for more info.
|
||||
|
||||
** The "track" function will show you the first step on the shortest
|
||||
path to anyone in the game.
|
||||
|
||||
** You can now remove your own messages from the board. Also, if you
|
||||
put someone else's name in parentheses in the message header, they
|
||||
will be able to remove the message too.
|
||||
|
||||
** The MIDGAARD MAIL SYSTEM is now complete. The Post Office is north
|
||||
of the entrance to the Grunting Boar inn. Stamps cost 150 coins.
|
||||
|
||||
** Fountains have now been implemented. You can drink from fountains
|
||||
or fill containers from fountains using the FILL command.
|
||||
|
||||
** The SHOUT command, as always, only reaches people in your zone (you
|
||||
can see who these people are by typing WHERE). The HOLLER command
|
||||
reaches everyone in the game but costs extra movement points.
|
||||
|
||||
** When you are writing a message, you will now not be interrupted
|
||||
by tells, shouts, emotes, socials, and even people talking in the
|
||||
same room.
|
||||
|
||||
*****************************************************************************
|
||||
IF YOU LEAVE THE GAME FOR MORE THAN AN HOUR, either by renting or plain
|
||||
quitting, your hit points, move points, and mana will be fully restored
|
||||
when you come back! This doesn't work if you're poisoned.
|
||||
*****************************************************************************
|
||||
|
||||
** Use the ASSIST command to engage in mortal combat with someone in the
|
||||
room who is getting pummeled.
|
||||
|
||||
** Use the SPLIT command to split gold among the members of your group
|
||||
(including yourself) who are in the room. i.e. If you are in a group
|
||||
with 4 other people who are in the room with you, type "SPLIT 100"
|
||||
to give each of them 20 coins.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
