MOVING THROUGHOUT GAME: --------------------------- The game divided into many rooms which are connected by various directionals to make up areas. When you are in a room, you can find the exits in the room by typing EXITS. Autoexit is a helpful command to initiate (type CONFIG +AUTOEXIT), because it will automatically show you what exits there are in the room. Be warned however, you will only see the obvious exits. You must pay attention to the room descriptions to see if there might be any doors or hidden passages in the room. Directional commands: (in parentheses you find the shorthand) NORTH (n) SOUTH (s) EAST (e) WEST (w) UP (u) DOWN (d) NORTHEAST (Ne) NORTHWEST (Nw) SOUTHEAST (Se) SOUTHWEST (Sw) Note: You will notice that in the prompt <20hp 10bp 20mv>, the 'mv' refers to your movement points. If your movement points were to run out, you will be unable to move between rooms due to exhaustion. If you type SLEEP or REST your movement points will slowly be replenished. You must type STAND or WAKE before walking again. ~ 31 AASSIGN~ Syntax: aassign <filename>.are Example: aassign edo.are AASSIGN temporarily assigns all rooms, objects, and mobiles in the area range to your pfile. This allows you to use rlist, olist, mlist, and reset list. This also means that typing savearea, reset area, or instazone will affect this area. To save changes permenantly, type "aassign none" and foldarea. Warning!! Do not have an area aassigned to yourself when getting personal vnums assigned to you. The personal vnums will overwrite the area file. In order to assign a proto area to yourself, you must either have that area bestowed to you or you must be Greater God+. In order to assign a nonproto area to yourself, you must either have that area bestowed to you by a member of the Area Council or you must be Exalted+. Even if you have the area bestowed to you, only Lesser+ can assign themselves nonproto areas.

Their skulls are elongated and tall, and havea large hole which goes completely through it. They have no ears or noses, and their mouth is ringed with sharp, bony ridges instead of lips. The Adarians make up to the lack of ears with a covering of fine hairs along their skulls that pick up the vibration of sound waves. A series of glands near the skin's surface allows them to smell. Their throats can be distended and filled with air, and the resulting "long call" can be useful as a communication method or a kind of defensive action. The Adarians have a rigid caste system which dominates their society, and the have evolved an advanced technology based on the use of super-cooled carbon-ice computers. They were able to remain neutral during the Galactic Civil War by signing a non-agression treaty with the Empire, providing the Empire with unlimited raw materials in return for their neutrality. ~ 0 ADD_PATROL~ This is a politician ability which allows them to add a fairly low level ground patrol force who will follow and guard the politician. ~ 1 ADD_PATROL ELITE_GUARD GATHER_INTELLIGENCE GEMCUTTING MASS_PROPEGANDA SCRIBE SEDUCE SPECIAL_FORCES "TRACTOR BEAMS"~ These commands are not currently in operation. ~ 31 ADVANCE~ Syntax: advance <character> <level> ADVANCE sets a character's level to the specified value. It is the only way to create new immortal characters within the game. ADVANCE may also be used to demote characters. ~ 31 ADVANCEDEXITS~ SMAUG supports having more than one exit in the same direction, as well as the special direction 'somewhere', represented by a '?'. If you already have an exit leading north, and would like another one, use a plus sign '+' in front of the direction: redit exit +n 3001 - Adds another exit north to room 3001 To modify an extra exit like this, or to remove it, you'll have to refer to it by number: redit exit #2 3002 - Change the second exit to go to room 3002 To know what number an exit is, do an "rstat". For someone to be able to use the second north exit, you have to set one of the extra flags (see EXFLAGS) like CAN_CLIMB. It is also usually a good idea to set the HIDDEN flag for any special exit so that it looks nicer with autoexits on. The AUTO flag makes it possible to go in a direction by simply typing the keyword for that exit: redit exit ? 3001 - Create a 'somewhere' exit to 3001 redit exflags ? auto hidden - Set the proper flags redit exname ? swim - Set the keyword "swim" If a player types 'swim' in the room, they will move to room 3001. ~ -1 ADVENTURE~ . In our efforts to give credit to everyone who deserves it, we almost forgot to give credit to one of the "grandfathers" of computer adventure games...

Each affect will be listed by name only for the sake of brevity (if you want to know what each is doing, use help <power/skill name> or 'score'). Characters level 20 or above and deadly characters will also see the number of rounds remaining for each affect. Affects with a remaining lifespan of less than 25 rounds are displayed in white, and those in immediate danger of wearing off will flash. 'Affected by' displays a character's affects separate from its power/skill affect list. This is useful for ensuring that affects given from equipment are actually functioning. For example, if you are wearing a visor with detect_invis but 'affected by' does not show you as having that affect, you are not detecting invisibility. 'Affected by' also displays your current susceptibilities, resistances and immunities if your character is level 20 or higher. ~ 31 AFFECTEDBY AFFECTED_BY~ The following are affect flags that can be used when osetting an item (with oset <item> affect affected <affect flag>). These flags can also be used when msetting a mobile (mset <mob name> affected <affect flag>). They may additionally be used to mset players if your level allows it.

To set a specific level of character to ban from a site, use 'ban' to get the list number of the banned site and then use 'ban level'. Example: ban 2 level 10 This will ban all characters level 10 and under from the second site on the 'ban' list. ALLOW <site> removes a site from the ban list. The site ban test works by suffix comparison, so if you ban 'foo.edu', all sites within 'foo.edu' are banned as well. ~ 1 ALLSHIPS ALLSHIP~ This command will list all the ships in the universe and there current owner or sale price. ~ 1 ALLSPEEDER ALLSPEEDERS~ This command will list all the speeders in the universe and there current owner or sale price. ~ 0 AMBUSH~ Ambush is the art of attacking someone quickly and without their knowing.

They stand about 1.3 meters tall, with shoulders as wide as 1.2 meters across. This species lives in underground cities on the planet Af'El, where most inhabitants make their living through mining and metallurgy. In the galaxy at large, Defel often find employment as hired muscle, spies, and assassins due to their shadowy forms. Defel can't wear armor because it would interfere wit htheir natural invisibility. However the fact that they are nearly impossible to see makes them very difficult to hit. ~ 31 DEFENSES~ parry dodge heal curelight cureserious curecritical dispelmagic dispelevil sanctuary fireshield shockshield shield bless stoneskin teleport monsum1 monsum2 monsum3 monsum4 disarm See MSET and ATTACKS (Some are not implemented). ~ 10 DEITIES DEITY~ Syntax: deities Syntax: deities <deity> The deities command displays all the deities of the world.

See also: SETSLAY, SHOWSLAY, MAKESLAY, SLAY ~ 0 DETRAP~ Syntax: detrap <object> This skill allows one to disarm a trapped object. Use it with care. ~ 0 DEVARONIAN~ these aliens are one of the most unique races in the galaxy, as their male and female sexes are so vastly different in appearance and temperament. The males are docile, non-aggresive creatures with smooth, hairless skin and short horns on their heads. They takes great pride in their horns, and groom them quite regularly. The females, on the other hand, are covered in calico fur and do not have horns. They are aggressive by nature, and tend to dominate their culture. It is believed that they are descended from a race of primates that lived in the mountains of Devaron, their homeworld, and that their horns were a genetic mutation that proved useful in fending off predatory brids. Devaronians are carnivores and in general, have an efficient metabolism, consuming nearly every bit of food they eat. Devaronians were one of the first races to discover the secrets to space travel and develop stardrives. ~ 1 DEXTERITY DEX~ Dexterity (DEX in your 'score') represents your character's agility, and it affects (among other things): - the maximum number of items you can carry at once in your inventory; with each additional point of dex you can carry additional items. - each additional point of dexterity also lowers (improves) your natural armor class. - success chances with bash and kick, and helps determine whether a thief will be able to poison a weapon. - your max levels in classes where dexterity would naturally relate. ~ 31 DIAGNOSE~ Syntax: diagnose of 20 Diagnose of n - object frequency of top "n" objects. The above example will return the 20 most numerous object vnums in the game at that time. ~ 31 DICEFORMULAS~ To make the special SMAUG powers possible, special dice formula handling had to be coded in. (At least to make it nice). This dice formula code supports full BEDMAS expressions ( ) ^^ / * + -, plus extra mud related operators and variables: D dice L level H hit points M force V movement S strength I intelligence W wisdom X dexterity C consitution A charisma U luck Y age See SMAUGSPELLS and SSET. ~ 0 DIG DIGGING BURY BURYING~ Syntax: dig Syntax: dig <direction> Syntax: bury <item> You can dig and bury items through the use of the dig skill and bury command. Buried items are not visible to players, even through the use of powers such as locate object. To dig an item up, type dig with no arguments. Having a shovel raises your chance of success. If you dig in a direction, you will attempt to dig open an exit. To bury an item (or corpse), drop the item on the ground and bury <item>. Depending on the size and weight of the object, you might need a shovel. * Note: Deadly players can bury/dig up each other's corpses. * Items buried will not last beyond crash or reboot. Do not attempt to use this skill for storage of items you wish to keep. ~ -1 DIKU~ Realms of Despair was originally based on the Merc 2.1 code which was based on the orignal DIKUMud code created by: The Original DIKUMud Team: Katja Nyboe [Superwoman] (katz@freja.diku.dk) Tom Madsen [Stormbringer] (noop@freja.diku.dk) Hans Henrik Staerfeldt [God] (bombman@freja.diku.dk) Michael Seifert [Papi] (seifert@freja.diku.dk) Sebastian Hammer [Quinn] (quinn@freja.diku.dk) Additional contributions from: Michael Curran - the player title collection and additional locations. Bill Wisner - for being the first to successfully port the game, uncovering several old bugs, uh, inconsistencies, in the process. And: Mads Haar and Stephan Dahl for additional locations. The Original DIKUMud was Developed at the Department of Computer Science at the University of Copenhagen. ~ 0 DISABLESHIP~ This allows you to disable a ship remotely in space. It takes alot of time, and the ship can be repaired by a technician, so it's not advisable to use in the middle of a fight. &w&RWarning:&W If you are caught using this skill on someone, it is ample reason to kill you. ~ 1 DISGUISE~ . Syntax : Disguise <string/clear> This skill allows you to change your title to one that does not include your name. Handy for impersonating others. Note: This has been updated. Disguise no longer changes your title, it changes how others see you in the game, such as in say, and look, etc. ~ 31 DMESG~ Syntax: dmesg Displays the contents of the boot log. ~ 0 DODGE~ This skill lets you dodge incoming attacks, taking no damage from them.

GET takes an object, either lying on the ground, or from a container, or even from a corpse (TAKE is a synonym for get). GIVE gives an object, or some coins, to another character. PUT puts an object into a container. Use 'drop/get/put all' to reference all objects present. Use 'drop/get/put all.<object>' to reference all objects of the same name. Examples: - drop 1000 coins - get all.ball backpack - get 5 sword - put 15 potion backpack ~ 31 'DUAL WIELD'~ This skill allows you to wield two weapons simultaneously. This is an automatic skill. ~ 0 DUG~ this alien race resembles a small horse, although it is completely hairless. The Dug have leathery, grey skin and small, beady eyes.

Much of their language is punctuated with knuckle rapping and foot stomping. ~ 1 DUINUOGWUIN~ Duinuoqwuins, or Star Dragons, are a sad, noble species with a habit of taking up lost causes. These huge, snakelike multipeds with gossamer wings average about ten meters long. Large, reptilian scales cover their bodies, though they have floppy, mammallike ears. Each body segment has a pair of legs, though the limbs attached to the foward segments have evolved into arms and hands. This ancient species comes from a secret, unknown world. They can be encountered on all types of worlds and even in deep space, where it seems they n eed to artificial protection. The Star Dragons have a deep-rooted sense of morality and honor, and most have at least some sensitivity to the Force. There are even tales that tell of an ancient time when Duinuoqwuin served as Jedi Knights. Because of their enormous size Duinouqwuin cannot wear armor. However they have excellent hit points and regeneration rate. They also fave the unique ability to fly. They are also very strong in the force. ~ 0 DUROS~ a humanoid race characterized by their blue skin, red eyes and long, thin faces. There is no nose on their face. They are a calm, peaceful race and are considered dependable workers and gifted storytellers. Their society was formed many millennia before the Galactic Civil War, and was very advanced technologically. Most Duros are interested in space travel, and are employed in one of the many industries that deal in travel between the stars. Those Duros who remain near their homeworld work for one of the many starship construction facilities that orbit the planet Duro. Many of the Duros found off-planet are graduates of the Duro Academy of Deep Space Exploration, and can navigate a hyperspace jump with limited star charting. ~ 1 E~ . GROUPING WITH OTHER PLAYERS ----------------------------- If you are within 5 levels of another character, you have the ability to group with that player. You are not able to group a non-deadly and a deadly character however (see HELP DEADLY). When you are grouped with another player, you attack mobs together and share the experience for each kill. Group Commands: *FOLLOW <player> - you will follow that player at which point they group you - to remove yourself from group type: FOLLOW <your name> *GROUP <player> - you add that player to your group - typing GROUP alone will list the people in your group - to remove someone from group type: GROUP <player name> *GTELL <message> - you tell the group a message *SPLIT <amount> - splits the gold among the group ~ 1 EARTHQUAKE~ Syntax : feel earthquake Damages all players in the room on the ground. ~ 0 EAT DRINK~ Syntax: drink <object> (drink liquid from a drink container) Syntax: eat <object> (eat food or a magical pill) eat <object> <container> (eat directly from a container) Drink instructs your character to drink from a fountain or a drink container to alleviate thirst. Eat instructs your character to eat an item of food or a magical pill (which function in a similar fashion as potions); pills do not fill stomach space. When you are hungry or thirsty (you will see messages at each tick that tell you if you are starving or dying of thirst, and can check your current state with either 'score' or 'oldscore'), you will not regain hitpoints, movement points or force back as rapidly as if you were well fed and hydrated. If you stay hungry or thirsty too long and you are not an Avatar, your mental state will begin to suffer. Your combat skills will be affected, your coordination will suffer and you may begin to either hallucinate or become depressed. Eating, drinking and a little rest will solve this problem after a short period of time. ~ 31 ECHO RECHO~ Syntax: echo <message> Syntax: recho <message> ECHO sends a message to all players in the game, without any prefix indicating who sent it. RECHO sends a message to all players in your room, without any prefix indicating who sent it. ~ 31 ECOLOR ECOLOUR~ .

The shopkeepers and thieves will automatically deposit gold into the economy if they are carrying more than a certain amount (the higher the level of the shopkeeper, the greater they will carry before depositing). To allow mobprogs to be created to manipulate area economies, making them interactive and interdependent, there are two mpcommands: mpdeposit, and mpwithdraw (see related helpfiles). There is also an 'if economy' ifcheck. The aset command can also be used to adjust an area's economy by hand (example: aset <area filename> low_economy <amount>, this will give the specified area a minimum economy at the level you set). Mobs will not repop with more gold than what they were originally created with, but if the area economy runs low they will begin to repop with less until the economy is replenished (as they all share the same gold pool). Use foldarea to make changes to an area's economy with aset permenent. See ASET, FOLDAREA ~ 0 ELITE_GUARD~ Elite guards are fairly strong guards. They will protect you with their life if they have to, and may prove quite useful in staying alive. ~ 0 EMOTE , POSE SOCIAL~ Syntax: emote <action> Syntax: pose EMOTE is used to express emotions or actions. Besides EMOTE, there are several dozen built-in social commands, such as CACKLE, HUG, and THANK. POSE is a variant of EMOTE. ~ 1 EMPOWER~ Syntax : empower <player> Syntax : empower <player> <command> These commands allow the clan leader (or an empowered clan member) to toggle OTHER members use of clan command.

Use 'empty <container>' to dump the contents to the ground. Use 'empty <container> <container>' will empty the contents of the first container into the second container. ~ 0 ENGINEER~ Ah the life of an engineer. One thing can be said about this class Money Money and more Money! Making armor and weapons is a boring and tedious class, however most engineers resign with money to spare. Everyone will come to you for your advance armor and heavy blasters. You can even repair ships and make random little trinkets. ~ 0 'ENHANCED DAMAGE'~ This skill increases the damage you inflict when attacking. Use of the skill is automatic once you have practiced it. ~ 1 ENLIST~ Syntax : enlist This command allows you to enlist in a clan in their recruitment office. These offices should be clearly marked.

The most common use of this is with portals cast by mages. To use the portal, simply type 'enter' on either side of it and you will pass through to the other side. ~ 1 ENTRYVECTOR JUMPVECTOR~ This command is not currently implemented. ~ 0 EQ INV EQUIP EQUIPMENT INVENTORY~ Syntax: equipment Syntax: inventory EQUIPMENT lists your equipment (armor, weapons, and held items). INVENTORY lists your inventory. ~ 1 EQDAMAGE~ While in combat, you may notice that your equipment is taking damage. For example, you may see "Your lifebane gets damaged." Each time this happens, the AC of the item is damaged by one. If the AC on an item is 5, after it is damaged more than five times it will be destroyed or scraped. If you wish to preserve the equipment, you must repair it by taking it to the town blacksmith. (NOTE: Not all equipment is repairable) You may also notice that while fighting a creature which attacks you with acid breath or another acid attack, your equipment gets "etched and pitted." When this occurs the AC on that item is damaged by one permanently. You cannot repair the damage done by "pitting and etching." ~ 0 EWOK ENDOR~ The Curious, furred bipeds native to Endor's forest moon are called Ewoks. Standing about one meter tall, the tribal Ewoks have yet to advance beyond spears and bows, but their understanding of forest lore and survival skills cannot be matched by a more advanced species. These Hunter gatherers live in village clusters built high within the moon's giant trees. Easily startled, the Ewoks are nonetheless brave, alert, and loyal, and they can be fierce warriors when necessary. The Ewok language is liquid and expressive, and most humans and other aliens can learn to speak it. Ewoks, conversely can learn Basic, though they often mix in many words from their own language. During the day, Ewoks come down out of their tree villages to hunt and forage on the forest floor. At night, the forest belongs to huge carnivores, and even the youngest Ewoks know not to venture out after dark. The Ewoks' mystical beliefs contain many references to the Force, though it is never named as such. They are a musical species, are overly curious, and are loyal to their tribes and friends. ~ 0 EXAMINE LOOK~ Syntax: look Syntax: look <object> Syntax: look <character> Syntax: look <direction> Syntax: look <keyword> Syntax: look in <container> Syntax: look in <corpse> Syntax: examine <container> Syntax: examine <corpse> LOOK looks at something and sees what you can see.

For more than one exit in the same direction see ADVANCEDEXITS. The syntax of the 'redit exit' command is as follows: redit exit <direction> [vnum] [exit-type] [key] [keyword(s)] direction: one of: n, s, e, w, u, d, ne, nw, se, sw or ? vnum : the room number in which the exit leads to. exit-type: a number detailing the exit -- has a door, open/closed/locked etc. key : a number corresponding to a key object which can unlock the door. keywords : keywords used to refer to the door, (or exit). If only 'redit exit <direction>' is specified, the exit will be removed. The 'key' field is optional when specifying keywords. All other fields are required previous to the field desired. Examples: redit exit n 3001 - Creates an exit north to room 3001 redit exit n 3001 3 gate - Changes the exit north to have a closed "gate" redit exit n 3001 3 15 gate - Changes the gate to allow use of a key vnum 15 redit exit n - Removes the north exit See EXITTYPES for generating the exit-type value. ~ 0 EXITS~ Syntax: exits Tells you the visible exits of the room you are in. Not all exits are visible. You can use the 'bump' technique to find hidden exits. (Try to walk in a certain direction and see what you bump into). ~ 31 EXITTYPES~ These are the currently valid exit-types: 0 - Plain exit 1 - Door exists (Required to be closed or locked) 2 - Door is Closed 4 - Door is Locked 8 - Door is Secret (Trying to go that way won't reveal door) 32 - Door is Pickproof (Door can't be picked by power or skill) 64 - Need to be able to fly to go that way 128 - Need to be able to climb to go that way 1024 - Door is Passdoor proof NOTE: You must ADD the values together to generate an exit-type: 3 = a closed door 7 = a closed and locked door 11 = a closed secret door 15 = a closed, locked and secret door -- Use the 'redit exflags' command to change these flags, and to set the advanced exit flags, most of which are not shown above. See EXFLAGS and EXITMAKING. ~ 0 EXPERIENCE LEVEL XP~ Syntax: level Your character advances in power by gaining experience. Type LEVEL to see how many experience points you'll need for the next few levels. You gain experience by: inflicting damage upon an opponent being part of a group that kills an opponent succeeding while learning a skill or a power through real world usage You lose experience by: fleeing from combat recalling out of combat being the target of some powers (energy drain, etc.) dying The experience you get from a kill depends on several things: how many players are in your group; your level versus the level of the monster; your alignment versus the monster's alignment and some random variation. Your last 25 kills are recorded. Each time you kill a creature that has been one of your last 25 kills you will receive less and less exp for it. The creature will also learn from its experience with you over time; if its intelligence is higher than your own it will begin to gain an advantage over you in combat. ~ 1 F~ . COMMANDS FOR COMBAT --------------------- *KILL <mob> - you begin to attack the mob (you need only type once) *FLEE - you attempt to flee from the fight *FEEL <force power> - you use the powet (see HELP <power> for more info) *CAST <force power> - being replaced by FEEL (but you can still use cast) *GLANCE <mob or player> - tells you how wounded the target is *CONSIDER (con) <mob> - gives you an idea on how tough the mobile is *LEVEL - shows you how many experience points you need till next level *WIMPY <number> - if your hitpoints go under that number, you flee combat *CONFIG +/-FLEE - you do/don't flee when attacked *RESCUE <player> - you replace a player in a fight *SHOVE <player> <direction> - a deadly player is shoved in a given direction *DRAG <player> <direction> - a sitting deadly player is moved that direction ~ 0 FALLEEN~ a reptilian alien race characterized by their cool, calculating demeanor. They despised mammalian races as inferior to their cold, reptilian cousins. They were covered with small scales, and often had a topknot of hair on their heads. Their scales change color with their emotions, and they exude intense pheromones when they want to. The males use these pheromones to attract females. The Falleen are humanoid in stature, and have clawed fingers and toes. Their ancestors lived in the water, and most Falleen litters are birthed in the water. They have evolved into what some consider the most beautiful of all humanoid races. As a people, the Falleen existed in a feudal society, with noble houses ruling over lower classes of artisans, workers, and slaves. ~ 1 FARSIGHT~ Syntax : feel farsight <victim> Gives a room description of victims location. ~ 1 FATIGUE~ Syntax : feel fatigue <victim> Makes victim more susceptable. ~ 1 FEEBLENESS~ Syntax : feel feebleness <victim> Makes victim more susceptable. ~ 0 FIGHT~ You may choose a fight by finding a mob, and using LOOK, CONSIDER, and IDENTIFY to gauge the difficulty of the opponent. You can LOOK <mob> to get a look at its equipment and description, this will often help indictate how hard a fight might be. You can CONSIDER <mob> for a one on one comparison of the mobs hitpoints and level to your own. You may also FEEL IDENTIFY <mob> to get more detailed information about the mob if you have force ability. You may start a fight by using KILL, MURDER, or many powers and skills available to players. The easiest way to start a fight is to KILL <mob>. Currently, you may also MURDER <mob>, but this causes the mob to yell out. You may also set it up to flee automatically once you go below a certain number of hitpoints by using WIMPY. To use your wimpy, type WIMPY or WIMPY <number of hitpoints>. Leaving a fight with wimpy, flee, and recall WILL cost you a loss of experience, with recall causing the greatest loss. ~ 0 FILL~ Syntax: fill <drincon> Syntax: fill <container> Syntax: fill <pipe> <herb> FILL can be used with drink containers, regular containers or pipes. - to fill a drink container, go to a fountain and 'fill <drinkcon>' - to fill a container such as a backpack with items from the ground, type 'fill <container>' - to fill a pipe you must have both the pipe and the herb in your inventory, then type 'fill <pipe> <herb>' ~ 1 FIRE~ Fires ships weapons, see SHIPS ~ 1 FIREBALL~ Syntax : feel fireball <victim> Sends a fireball at victim. ~ 1 FIRRERREO~ tall humanoids native to the planet Firrerre, they beings have unique striped hair, nictitating mebranes covering their eyes, and golden skin which turns silver when scarred. They possessed limited spacefaring technology, and had only recently perfected sublight travel when Hethrir convinced them to head for nearby planets while being held in hibernation. Those that were placed on the colony ships are the only surviving Firrerreo, because Hethrir later turned the planet over to the Empire, which destroyed the ecosystem with a biological weapon. Hethrir had been raiding the colony ships for slaves over the years, until his death at the hands of the being Waru. The Firrerreo have strong clan affiliations, and a fair amount of Force sensitivity. They rarely used their given names aloud, but the use of Firrerreo's name compelled the being to obey the speaker. ~ 1 FIRSTAID "FIRST AID" MEDPAC~ . Syntax : First Aid (Character) First aid lets you use the contents of a med kick to heal minor damage to yourself. ~ 0 FIXCHAR~ Syntax: fixchar <character> Resets a character's saving throws and mentalstate. Should probably not be done while the character is equipped. ~ 0 FLAMESTRIKE~ Syntax: feel 'flamestrike' <victim> This power inflicts damage on the victim. ~ 0 FLEE RESCUE~ Syntax: flee Syntax: rescue <character> Once you start a fight, you can't just walk away from it. If the fight is not going well, you can attempt to FLEE, or another character can RESCUE you. If you lose your link during a fight, then your character will keep fighting, and will attempt to RECALL from time to time. Your chances of making the recall are reduced, and you will lose much more experience. In order to RESCUE successfully, you must practice the appropriate skill. ~ 1 FLOAT~ Syntax: feel 'float' <character> This power enables the target character to float. It is useful in saving mv (movement points), makes a character float slowly to the ground when falling from in the air, and allows you to move over water and through the air. Some water areas require the use of float to prevent damage from drowning. If you are in an area and your movement suddenly begins to drop, then you begin losing hps <hitpoints>, you should cast float immediately. ~ 31 'FLOAT'~ Syntax: cast 'float' <character> The power enables the target character to float. It is useful in saving mv (movement points), as well as in preventing damage taken when falling and in preventing an opponent from tripping you. It does not allow you to travel through areas which require you to fly, however. ~ 0 FLY~ Syntax: cast 'fly' <character> This power enables the target character to fly. It is useful in saving mv (movement points), preventing a character from falling when in the air, moving over water or through the air, and in preventing an opponent from tripping you. Some water areas require the use of fly to prevent damage from drowning. If you are in an area and your movement suddenly begins to drop, then you begin losing hps <hitpoints>, you should cast fly immediately. ~ 31 FOLDAREA~ Syntax: foldarea <area filename> This command is used to save a live (non-prototype) area file, usually after it has been modified. It should be used with extreme care. See ASET, UNFOLDAREA and INSTALLAREA. ~ 0 FOLLOW GROUP~ Syntax: follow <character>; Syntax: group <character>; Syntax: group 'Follow' starts you following another character. To stop following, type 'follow self'. You cannot follow those more than ten levels above you. 'Group <character>' adds someone who is following you into your group, making them a group member. Group members share experience from kills, and may use the GTELL and SPLIT commands. If anyone in your group is attacked, you will automatically join the fight. If character is already a member of your group, using 'group <character>' will remove them from your party. Removing the character from the group does not stop them from following you, however. A character can also leave your group by using the 'follow self' command, in which case they will both leave your group and stop following you. 'Group' with no argument shows statistics for each character in your group. You may follow lower level characters or characters up to ten levels higher. You may group only characters within eight levels of your own. 'Group all' groups all eligible players following you in the room. 'Group disband' allows a leader to disband his group (members stop following and are ungrouped). ~ 31 FOR~ Syntax: for <argument> <command> Syntax: for <argument> <command> <target> For allows an immortal to perform a command at or even on a large number of targets. The arguments include: all, mobs, gods. Example: for gods gl, you will 'glance' in the room of every god who is online (include link-dead) You can also perform an action on the argument target. Example: for mobs poke #, you will perform the 'poke' social on every mob in the game. 'For' does not override private flags. ~ 31 FORCE~ Syntax: force <victim> <command> Syntax: force all <command> Force forces one mob or character to execute a command. FORCE 'all' forces _all_ everywhere in the game to execute a command, typically used for 'force all save'. Note that the level required to use force on mobs can be different than the level required to use force on players, and can be adjusted via 'cset' (see 'help cset'). ~ 0 FORCE~ The force is an essential part of our nature like energy or matter but it has yet to be quantified or analyzed. The force is not to be understood in the same manner as the physical qualities of the universe. The laws of physics are observable; technology is predictable and readily-controlled. The Force is neither controlled nor controlling it is a part of life itself; asking if it controls or can be controlled is like asking if a person can control his component cells, or the cells control him. It is not known whether the force has always been, came about as life evolved into intelligence, or if it coerced the evolution of intelligence. To the Jedi, it does not matter. Its enough to know the force IS. ~ 31 FORCECLOSE~ Syntax: forceclose <descriptor> This command will force a certain descriptor to close. This is useful to disconnect connections that aren't really connected due to a poor TCP connection. It can also be used to forceclose a connection before a potential problem player can even get to the authorization state of connection. See USERS, CONSTATES and DISCONNECT. ~ 1 FORETHOUGHT~ Syntax : feel forethought Increases wisdom for a limited period. ~ 31 FORMPASS~ Syntax: formpass <new password> <character name> Example: formpass temporary Joseph Used to help in changing a character's password if they have forgotten or misplaced their own. This command will return the encrypted form of the specified password for the specified character name. Password and character name are case sensitive, and the character name _must_ be capitalized. The resulting encrypted password must then be pasted into the character's pfile offline by someone with access to player files. ~ 1 FOTE FOTEV1.1 FOTEV1.2 FOTEV1.21 FOTEV2.0~ SWFotE is an extension of SWR 1.0 which is an extention of Smaug which was expanded from Merc which was derived from the original Dikumud code.

Fquit does not work on any player higher than level 1. ~ 1 G~ . COMMUNICATION COMMANDS ------------------------ *CHAT <message> - everyone can hear this message *TELL <player> <message> - only that player will see your message *ASK/ANSWER <message> - for asking and answering questions *EMOTE <message> - this prints <Your name> <message> on the screen *QUEST <message> - channel used for questing players *REPLY <message> - sends a messages to the last person who sent you a tell *SAY <message> - the message is only heard by the people in the room *SHOUT <message> - message is only heard by people who are awake *YELL <message> - message is only heard by people in the area *CLANTALK, ORDERTALK, AND GUILDTALK - channels for clans, guilds, and orders *CHAN +/-<channel> - you can turn a channel on and off **** Also see HELP LANGUAGES, NOTES, and MAIL **** ~ 1 GAIN~ This command is not currently implemented. ~ 0 GAMORR GAMORREAN~ ~ 1 GAMORREAN GAMORREANS~ The Gamorrean people are known for their brutish, porcine appearance, along with their great strength and minute intelligence. Green skinned with pig-like snouts, they are among the Galaxy's best laborors and mercenaries. They also have impressive stamina, allowing them to with- stand large assaults and physical trauma. When Gamorr was discovered, the populace was enslaved. Those who escaped this fate quickly traveled offworld to sell their services to outsiders as guards and mercenaries. Now, thanks to their superb idiocy, they have been abandoned as a source of slave labor. ~ 0 GAND~ a species of sentient life that has developed in the gases of the planet Gand. Able to survive in the various gases, they require special breathing apparatus in order to survive in oxygen-based atmospheres. The lungs of the Gand are quite efficient, able to utilize nearly 85 percent of the atmosphere they breathe in with each breath. The Gand have developed a totalitarian monarchy, and various colonies of Gand live in pockets of mist in the gas giant's atmosphere. When renegade Gand are sought, findsmen are sent out to locate them. The Gand hold their names in great reverence. A Gand who has accomplished nothing in his life is simply known as "Gand." When a Gand completes a task, they are given their family's surname. A further accomplishment provides the Gand with a proper name. Pronouns are almost never used, and are reserved for those famous Gand who have accomplished so much that their deeds are known by all. If a Gand does something to be ashamed of, or causes offense to another Gand, their name is reduced. It was discovered Gand have certain regenerative properties. ~ 1 GATHER_INTELLIGENCE, GEMCUTTING MASS_PROPEGANDA SCRIBE SEDUCE~ These commands are not currently in operation. ~ 1 GENDI~ This is just a cheeky note to say that I have added alot more to this help file. If you do use this file please maintain this note. check out http://www.bigfoot.com/<tilda key>SWReality for more SWR files. ~ 0 GIVESHIP~ SYNTAX: giveship <ship> <player> Giveship allows you to give your ship to another player. If selling your ship to another player, be sure to collect payment BEFORE you give it away. It does not do this automatically. Enjoy. ~ 1 GLANCE~ syntax: glance syntax: glance <victim> Glance alone shows you only the contents of the room you are in, eliminating the description. Glance <victim> shows only the health condition, eliminating their description and equipment from your screen. Glance may be abbreviated as 'gl'. ~ 0 GOKU~ Previously I was ackbar and no not the original Ackbar. I worked at DoE for a while and eventually got fed up with the coruption so I ended up leaving. I pretty much quit mudding and to this day don't enjoy mudding but I still enjoy messing with code. So thats the purpose of this. Just a hobby. When I feel enough has been done to make it worth releasing this I will. Then anyone who wants to is welcome to use it as they wish. This mud is rp encouraged, however not enforced. Players who we feel are doing a good job of rping will be awarded RP points. These can be redeamed for different things including gold, a restore, or something of that nature. ~ 1 GOLD~ Syntax: gold Displays the current total credits you are carrying. ~ 1 GOSSIP~ Syntax : gossip <message> This command is now the same as OOC See OOC ~ 0 GOTAL~ a humanoid race which possesses a limited ability to sense the Force, the Gotal have grey fur, and two cone-like horns on top of their heads. These horns are actually nerve-filled receptors that register the presence of infrared, radio, light, and electromagnetic emissions. These cones also have the ability to sense the presence of the Force as a vague buzzing. They come from a moon called Antar 4, and have an instinctual distrust of droids, for the droids' energy emissions foul up their sensitive horns. The Gotal have come to rely on their cones for a great many things and, as a consequence, they have a hard time interpreting the emotions of other races. The one emotion most Gotal are sure of is love, and falling in love at first sight is a common occurance among prospective mates. When two Gotals mate, they do so for life and begin raising a family as soon as possible. The Gotal are a race of hunters, and have little or no political affiliations. They have one of the few societies which exists in a peaceful anarchy. The Gotal resisted entry into the Old Republic, but had absolutely no desire to join the Empire. ~ 30 GOTO~ Syntax: goto <location> GOTO takes you to a location. The location may be specified as a vnum, as the name of a mobile, or as the name of an object. If the location is a vnum, and it does not already exist, and it is within your room vnum range; it shall be created for your to edit further with REDIT. You may not GOTO a room if it is PRIVATE and has two (or more) characters already present, or if it is SOLITARY and has one (or more) characters already present. See REDIT. ~ 0 GRAN~ a race of three-eyed humanoids native to the planet Kinyen, the Gran have tan skin. Their eyes are set out away from their heads on thick stalks, and they have large ears. Their eyes are adapted for seeing into the visible spectrum as well as the infrared spectrum. They evolved from a herbivorous species, and have two stomachs to digest their food. The females have three breasts, which they use to suckle their young. In general, Gran are peaceful and hospitable, and no conflicts have been noted in their 10,000 year history. Their infrared sight allows the Gran to detect their companion's emotional state. The Gran race was hesitant to join the galactic community of the Old Republic, fearing that they would become diluted by huge distances. They remained isolated from the Republic, for the most part, and the Old Republic respected their wishes. After the birth of the New Order, the Gran organized peaceful protests against Palpatine's rule. However, they were quickly subjugated by the Empire. On their own, the Gran developed space travel, and have developed a healthy trade route. ~ -1 GREETING~ &w&g .^^^x. &w&r .^^^x. &w&g |^g ^x| &w&W &w&RStar Wars&w&W: Fall of the Empire &w&r |^r ^x| &w&g |^g ^x| &w&r |^r ^x| &w&g |^g ^x| &w&W The Rebellion, having scored &w&r |^r ^x| &w&g |^g ^x| &w&W a victory against the second &w&r |^r ^x| &w&g |^g ^x| &w&W deathstar, finally begin &w&r |^r ^x| &w&g |^g ^x| &w&W growing in numbers.

Ussually combined with the throw skill. ~ 1 GRIP~ This skill is automatic, once practiced. The skill causes you to grip your weapon tightly as someone tries to disarm you, making it far more difficult to successfully disarm you. This skill will only increase as you are engaged in fights where someone is attempting to disarm you. ~ 0 GTELL ; REPLY SAY TELL~ Syntax: gtell <message> Syntax: say <message> Syntax: tell <character> <message> All of these commands send messages to other players. GTELL sends a message to all of the characters in your group, wherever they are, even if they are sleeping or stunned or dying. ';' is a synonym for GTELL. SAY sends a message to all awake players in your room. The single quote ''' is a synonym for SAY. TELL sends a message to one awake player anywhere in the world. REPLY sends a message to the last player who sent you a TELL. REPLY will work even if you can't see the player, and without revealing their identity. This is handy for talking to invisible or switched immortal players. ~ 1 GUILDS~ Not currently implemented. ~ 1 GUILDTALK~ Not currently implemented. ~ 1 H~ .

If the specified help topic does not exist, it will be created for you. The default help page (summary) will be selected if you do not specify a page. NOTE - Always, when creating a new help entry, type Help <new entry name> prior to creating your entry. A pre-existing help file associated with that keyword may already exist. &Y Colors &wcan now be added to help files using the same command set that changes a player prompt. &bMultiple &Ycolor &wcombinations can be set on a given line including ^bbackground^x colors. However, there are a couple of quirks to take note of: &Y 1) If the first line of your help file containers a color code and you are experiencing a display problem with the file, use a . to begin the file. 2) Color changes should be separated by at least one character. Example: '&&Y.^^r' will work, '&&Y^^r' may cause problems.

So here we go... hedit <helpfile> hset level 1 <helpfile> hset keyword "<word list>" <helpfile> hset save <helpfile> ~ 0 HIDE SNEAK VISIBLE~ Syntax: hide Syntax: sneak Syntax: visible If you successfully HIDE, other characters and creatures cannot see you unless they are affected by 'detect hidden'. If you successfully SNEAK, you can move from place to place without being noticed by other characters. In order to HIDE or SNEAK successfully, you must practice the appropriate skill. VISIBLE cancels your hiding and sneaking, as well as any invisibility, effectively making you visible again to all. ~ 1 HIJACK~ . Syntax : Hijack This skill allows you to "borrow" other peoples ships &w&RWarning:&W If you are caught using this skill, it is ample reason to kill you. ~ 1 HITALL~ Syntax: hitall ~ 1 HLIST~ Syntax: hlist <low level range> <high level range> This command will give you a listing of available help files. The list is in alphabetical order based on the first triggering keyword. While this command was initially designed as a maintenance tool to help us track help files, it is also available to players so that they can capture a listing of the help files available to them. Note - You may only view help files that are coded for viewing by your level or lower. Note - The list of help files is quite extensive, and the command does not as yet have a way to filter/shorten the list. Screen capture is, at present, your only recourse. ~ 0 HOLD REMOVE WEAR WIELD~ Syntax: hold <object> Syntax: remove <object> Syntax: remove all Syntax: wear <object> Syntax: wear all Syntax: wield <object> Three of these commands will cause you to take an object from your inventory and use it as equipment: HOLD is for lights, wands and staves; WEAR is for armor; WIELD is for weapons. You may not be able to HOLD, WEAR, or WIELD an item if its alignment does not match yours, if it is too heavy for you, or if you are not experienced enough to use it properly. WEAR ALL will attempt to HOLD/WEAR/WIELD each suitable item in inventory. REMOVE will take an object from your equipment and place it into inventory. REMOVE ALL will remove all your equipment and place it into inventory. ~ 31 HOLYLIGHT INVIS~ Syntax: holylight Syntax: invis HOLYLIGHT is a toggle that allows you to see (almost) every character and mobile in the game. With holy light, you can see what's in the game more easily. Without holy light, you can see what mortal players see. INVIS is a toggle which makes you completely invisible to all player characters of lower level than you, and to all mobiles. When an immortal is INVIS, they will have a flag on the who list which indicates their level of invisibility, such as (51) for INVIS 51. A similar flag will also appear when you 'LOOK' in a room - this flag will say (Invis 51). HOLYLIGHT will not allow you to see immortal INVIS characters who are higher level than you. ~ 10 HOMEPAGE~ syntax: homepage <url> example: homepage http://www.idirect.com/test.html If you have a web page somewhere, you can use the homepage command to show people a link to that page whenever they select the 'see who's on' link from the Realms of Despair home page. To remove your homepage setting, type 'homepage clear'. ~ 1 'HP'~ This is an abbreviation for hit points. Everyone starts with an even 500. And goes back to the dirt with 500, maximum. SEE ALSO: STUN, DEATH, CLONING ~ 31 HSET~ Syntax: hset <command> [value] [help topic] save Saves all help pages (to help.are) level <level> <help topic> Sets help topic to specified level keyword <keyword> <help topic> Sets help keyword to specified keyword remove <level.><help topic> Removes the specified help page Note: If you wish to set more than one keyword to a help topic, enclose all the keywords, space separated inside quotes. (Like in powercasting) Note: If you have instances of multiple help files with the same keyname, using Hset Remove without a level designation will remove the one with the lowest level of access. ie: Help file XYZZY at level 57, and help file 'SAVE XYZZY' at level 58. Typing 'HSET REMOVE XYZZY' will remove the level 57 XYZZY. Typing 'HSET REMOVE 58.XYZZY' will remove the level 58 'SAVE XYZZY'. See also: HEDIT ~ 31 HSET HEDIT~ ~ 0 HUMAN HUMANS~ Humans are the most numerous and least unusual of the races. They possess no special abilities or bonuses, but also have no penalties. Because of this, Humans are extremely adaptable and are able to assume a variety of classes and roles. Humans are bipedal beings, boasting two arms, two legs and a roundish head. Amazingly, Humans have a strange tendency to look different from each the other; almost none look exactly alike. ~ 0 HUTT HUTTS~ An obese race, the Hutts are among the Galaxy's most despicable low-lifes. They live on their adopted homeworld of Nal Hutta, having completely strip-mined their original home. Due to their great size, they lack any appreciable dexterity, however such size does lend itself to some added protection. In addition, many have keen minds and a good deal of common sense, probably due to the fact that they are constantly trying to kill one another. Centering their entire lives around the aquisition of power and wealth, their is little art, of any type, associated with them. Some do, however, keep collections for mere boasting value. ~ 1 HYPERSPACE LIGHTSPEED~ . Syntax : Calculate (system) (x) (y) (z) Then Hyperspace or Lightspeed Hyperspace is used to jump from one system to another in the galaxy. It is much faster than conventional space travel as well as a bit more dangerous. If you get a Jump warning odds are you will collide with something when you jump into the system ~ 1 I~ .

Ignorance is no excuse for misusing channels, if you mean to jokingly tell someone OOC you're going to kill them but do it IC they have every right to defend themselves and attack you if they feel threatened. You can use the ask and answer, as well as tell channels (if you don't understand them there's a reason someone teaches languages) if;you want to talk OOC or just go to a hotel, it's not that difficult and it's cheaper then using IC and clears up any confusion and lessens whining because someone was killed because they "accidentally said the wrong thing on the wrong channel". &Y OOC - Out of Character - Means you're talking about issues not game related like a bug or have another mud-based question, this does not mean you go "Hey Jim I need food pick me up" or "Hey So and So just killed me I'm gonna get you!" however there are a constantly growing number of help files and most of your basic questions should be there for answering, but yes there are times here there are questions only an imm or a fellow player can answer. However Excessive abuse of OOC will result in possibly being silenced. &g ~ 31 IFCHECKS~ VALUE CHECKS TRUE/FALSE CHECKS (If check == #/string/vnum) Ifcheck Question Ifcheck Question --------- --------------------------- ---------- ------------------------ Hitprcnt Percentage of hit/max_hit?

The leader and number 1 of the clan receive the induct commands, while the deity, leader, number 1 and number 2 all receive outcast. Induct will bring a new player into the clan, while outcast will remove them. ~ 1 INFO~ Syntax : info Syntax : info <ship name> This command shows infomation on either the ship you are in (no ship name) or information on the ship specified. ~ 1 INFORMATION~ SLIST - a command that lists all your powers and skills and the level at which you may practice them.

This power will also allow you to get items from a corpse, but will not allow you to see the corpse. You must have a light source to see items, room descriptions, or "exits" in a dark room. ~ 1 INQUIRE~ Class: Slicer Level: 8 Syntax: inquire Slices into the Galactic Bank Database and lists all active accounts and their respective balances. ~ 31 INSTALLAREA~ Syntax: installarea <area filename> <full area name/title> Installs a prototype area into the mud as a non-prototype area. The filename can be fixed with aset (don't forget to foldarea afterwards). Installarea renames the installed area file from 'author.are.file' to 'author.are.installed' so that the builder may be assigned new vnums. ~ 31 INSTAROOM INSTAZONE~ Syntax: instaroom Functions the same as instazone, but is room-based instead of area-based. Syntax: instazone [nodoors] This command lets your instantly create a whole set of resets for your area based on all the mobiles and objects contained within your area. All you have to do is place each mob in its proper room, wearing what it should be wearing, carrying what it should be carrying, and objects in their proper places, or in their proper containers, and doors in their proper states, (open, closed, locked). The instazone command will clear out your current resets (if any), and create new ones for you. You may optionally specify "nodoors" so that door resets will not be created. NOTE: This command will wipe out any existing resets! Do not use this command after you have added your own resets with 'reset add'. The recommended procedure is to use instazone, then use the 'reset' command to add any special resets, and NOT use instazone again. See RESET and RESETCMDS. ~ 1 INTELLIGENCE INT~ Intelligence (INT in your 'score') represents your character's mental capacity. Among other things, it affects: - the rate at which a character learns a new skill or power - the percentage rate at which a character practices a new language - your max levels in classes where intelligence would naturally relate. Intelligence is an important factor in learning between combatants. If a character fights a creature several times, the more intelligent of the two opponents will gain an advantage over time... ~ 1 INTRODUCE~ At FotE we have an introduction system that is more RP focused than most. &wSyntax: introduce <player/all> <your preferred name>&W If a character comes across another character, they will only know them by their race, sex, build, and approximate height. However, when someone introduces themself, such as &w'introduce <player> Admiral Thrawn'&W, or &w'introduce all Admiral Thrawn'&W, that person or everyone on the room you are in will see you, hear you, and look at you as 'Admiral Thrawn'. You don't have to limit yourself to a name, though. You can introduce yourself to an engineer as 'A customer', or introduce yourself to someone who is gullible enough as 'An Imperial Tax Official'. Disguises work a bit different here than from stock SWR, as well. No matter whom you've introduced yourself to, your disguise will be what they see, hear, and look at. If you want to look how you've introduced yourself, you can type &wdisguise clear&W to remove it. &RIt would be good to note that impersonation of an Immortal or introducing as something that may be construed as offensive, lewd, or inappropriate to the MUD's setting will not be tolerated. An infraction of this will result in any punishment deemed necessary by an Immortal. Period. ~ 31 ITEMVALUES~ In these values, 'sn' is a power number; a negative value means 'no power'.

The eyes are set at opposite sides of the hammer-shaped top portion of the head, and their mouths are hidden below on the sloping part of the head. They have wide, flat feet designed to keep their balance. They also have two throats, and this biological phenomenon makes them hard to understand. This caused them a great deal of pain when the Empire discovered their planet, for the Imperial xenophobia was heightened by their inability to communicate. ~ 1 JAIL~ Syntax : jail <player> Sends a stunned player to your clan's jail. ~ 0 JAWA JAWAS~ Small, foul smelling creatures, Jawas live almost exclusively on Tatooine. Their personal habits and way of life make them fairly repulsive to many other races. Their size does give them an edge on dexterity, and the constant work they do on machinery gives them a similar edge in intelligence. While over 99% of all Jawas live on Tatooine, some have been seen elsewhere. The lower levels of Coruscant are rumored to harbor some, as well as a most unlikely locale, Smuggler's Run. ~ 1 JEDIS "JEDI KINGHT" JEDI~ . The Force is very rare in the Star Wars Univers, so to keep in reality, we have set it up so only 1 in around 50 characters acctually has the Force. If you are Force capable , you will find out by training the meditate skill at luck and after much practice you may become tunned to the Force. &R NOTE: Force is for 1 in 50 characters for a reason bugging IMM's to give you the force is not advised. Creating characters until you get the force is also frownd upon by everyone. &g See Also Help FRC. ~ 0 KUBAZ~ an alien race hailing from the planet Kubindi, the Kubaz have dark green skin, a prehensile trunk, and large eyes. Their eyes are sensitive to the red spectrum of light, and often wear large goggles when they are away from their homeworld. They tend to be clan-oriented, with each clan protecting its property from other rival clans. The intense solar flares from their planet's sun nearly destroyed the majority of food sources on the planet, and the Kubaz were forced to hunt insects as a staple diet. This led to the rival clans raiding each others' insect farms. They eventually discovered space travel, and eventually populated three of the 11 worlds orbiting the sun Ku'Bakai. This ability to move off-planet then introduced the Kubaz to their neighbors, the Verpine. Since the Verpine are an insectile race by nature, the space-faring Kubaz found that the Verpine were tasty, and began to hunt them as an additional food source. ~ 1 LAND~ Syntax : land Syntax : land <location> This command lands the ship at the specified location or diplays the available landing site. ~ 0 LANGUAGES LANGUAGE LEARN~ Syntax: languages Syntax: language learn <language name> Languages alone shows which languages you know, and "language learn <name>" will add to your percentage of language knowledge. To learn a language, a scholar who is knowledgable in that tongue must be present. If someone is speaking in a language, and you know it, you will understand what they are saying. However, to change the language in which you are speaking, you must change that manually. (See help on SPEAK). Also see help on TONGUES. ~ 31 LAST~ Syntax: last <character> Returns the last connected date of the victim. ~ 1 LASTNAME~ Syntax: Lastname <lastname> Sets your last name. Use lastname with no arguments to clear your last name. ~ 1 LAUNCH~ Syntax : launch Launchs the ship. ~ 31 LAYERS~ . &gLayers are currently available on the following wear locations: &GAbout, Arms, Body, Feet, Hands, Legs, Waist. &gLayers are set with a numeric value, or combination of values. The lower the value, the lower the layer, or thinner the item of clothing/armor is. Valid numeric values are: &G0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128. &gOr any combination of the above. A value of zero means no other items came be layered with this item. Items of clothing can be layered over one another as long as their layer values do not overlap. ie, if leather armor were set to a value of 56 (8, 16, and 32), it could not layer with, say, a set of heavy chain that is set to a value of 96 (32 and 64), as they overlap on the layer value of 32.

Like FREEZE, it is a permanent character toggle that persists across reboots until removed. Certain commands (such as password) are protected against LOG. Conversely, certain commands (especially immortal commands) are always logged. LOG ALL logs all character and mob commands and actions to the server's log file, but does not send the output to the log channel. It is a server-wide toggle; it does not persist across reboots. SNOOP shows you a copy of all the input and output going to a character. The character must have an open channel. You may snoop more than one character at a time. The input from the player will be displayed with a header of the players name and a percentage sign (i.e. Mudder%) SNOOP yourself to cancel all outstanding snoops. ~ 0 MAIL~ Syntax: mail list Syntax: mail read <number> Syntax: mail read all Syntax: mail write Syntax: mail subject <string> Syntax: mail to <to-list> Syntax: mail take <number> Syntax: mail show Syntax: mail post Syntax: mail remove <number> The mail command is very similar to the note command.

Living on a planet almost totally covered with oceans, they have developed a symbiotic relationship with the water-dwelling Quarren. These inhabitants of the sea mine ore from the ocean's floor and the Mon Calamari design practical uses for it. While they are not the most agile or tough race, their long fight against the Empire has taught them many survival skills. When the Empire came to Mon Calamari, it decimated the population and their proliferate floating cities. After months of fighting, the Imperial force was repelled and the first collective action of the planet was to seek entry into the Alliance. The Mon Calamari also provided a great asset to the Alliance during the war, converting their numerous Pleasure Cruisers into machines of war, bringing much needed capitol ships to the Aliiance's forces. ~ 1 MORON~ .

Use 'mpinvis' alone to toggle the invisibility. Use 'mpinvis <level>' to set the level at which the mob will be invis. Mortals under the mobinvis level of the mob will be unable to see the mob when it goes mobinvis; they cannot see it with any power, it will be completely invisible to them. Be warned, however, that its programs will still function as normal, the mortal will simply see a 'someone' if it performs an action or an echo that they see, just as if a wizinvis immortal performed the action.

As your squint your eyes, you perceive a vision of great beasts of wonder, dangerous and unnatural fiends, pixies, faeries, tribes and clans, peoples of all kinds, ancient forgotten artifacts, weapons of vast untapped powers, crystal balls, magick rings, staves, wands, rods, arcane tomes of untold secrets... your mind is bursting with inspiration...

Incredible agility lend them a large advantage in combat. For the most part, Noghri are not technologically advanced, they lack any sort of "street smarts," as almost none of them have ever gone offworld, and those that do only do so as body guards and similar occupations. Their small size also limits their constition, and thus succumb to wounds more quickly than humans. The Noghri live on the fourth planet in their system, the only one of seven capable of supporting life. Honoghr is, for the most part, a barren world. Years ago, during the Clone Wars, a large starship crashed into the planet, causing massive destruction and posoining much of the planet with coolant fluids. Since, the Noghri have been extremely dependant on the Empire or the New Republic for food. ~ 1 NOGHRI HONOGHR~ ~ 30 NOKILL KILL NO~ A 'nokill' flag has been added for NAMED mobs. It doesn't make sense for some mobs to die and then suddenly be back alive again ( the ones with names as opposed to ones like anonymous stormtroopers etc ).

When used with a single argument it will list all objects including and after the argument, and when used with two arguments, it will list all objects including and between the two. ~ 31 OMENU~ The menu commands are no longer in operation. ~ 31 OPEDIT~ Syntax: opedit <object> <command> [number] [program] [arguments] Syntax: opedit <object> add <program> <arguments> Syntax: opedit <object> insert <number> <program> <arguments> Syntax: opedit <object> edit <number> [program] [arguments] Syntax: opedit <object> delete <number> Syntax: opedit <object> list Add, insert and edit will put you into the line editor to edit your program. The arguments consist of a trigger, plus any arguments associated with that trigger. Object programs are like mobprograms, with trigger differences. To edit an Objprogram, you must be holding the object in your inventory.

If your charmed creature engages in combat, that will break the charm. ~ 1 ORDERS ORDERTALK OT~ No order commands are currently implemented. ~ 31 OSET~ Syntax: oset <object> <field> <value> oset object on If the copy of the object you are currently modifying has the PROTOTYPE flag, your modifications will also modify the index of that object, which all other instances of the object are based on. In the future, every copy of that obj will reflect your modifications. Also be aware that modifications to the object affect list (everything that is listed after 'object values') will affect _every_ copy of that object in the game, including old copies (even if they are not online). Thus if you change a prototype-flagged copy of a sword to +4 damroll, every copy of that vnum ever made will reflect that change. If you add a 'magic' flag to that sword, however, only copies made after the change will be affected. If the copy of the object you are modifying does NOT have the PROTOTYPE flag, your modifications will affect only that copy. OSET ON will lock you onto a particular object. Once locked on, all commands commands will imply 'oset <object>'. Hitting enter while in OSET ON gives you an ostat of the object you are working on. To get out of OSET ON, simply type the word DONE. Example: oset staff on long A long gnarled staff of burnished oak lies here. type staff done See AFFECTTYPES, WEARFLAGS, OBJECTFLAGS, OBJECTTYPES, ARMORCLASS ITEMVALUES, WEAPONTYPES, VARIABLES, OMENU and LAYERING ~ 30 OSET_FLAGS OSET_FLAGS OSETFLAGS OFLAGS OFLAG OBJ_FLAGS~ help oset flags Usage: oset <object> flags <flag> [flag]... 1. glow: Object will glow. 2. dark: The object will be dark. 3. magic: The object will be capable of magic. 4. bless: The object will be blessed. 5. antievil: Object cannot be wielded/worn by a player with negative alignment. 6. noremove: Once a player wields/wears this object, they cannot remove it. 7. antisith: Object cannot be wielded/worn by a Sith 8. antisoldier: Object cannot be wielded/worn by a Soldier. 9. donation: ??? 10. covering: ??? 11. hum: The object will emit a humming sound. 12. invis: The object will be invisible.

These amphibious beings share the world of Calamari with the Mon Calamari race, though the Quarren prefer the depths of the floating cities to the upper reaches the Mon Cals call home. The Quarren are more practical and conservative than their idealistic world-mates. Whereas the Mon Calamari have adopted the Basic as their language of choice, the Quarren have kept their oceanic tounge. The Quarren are sea dwellers, able to live out of the water, but preferring the security of the ocean depths, These pragmatic people are unwilling to trust new ideas. They do not dream of brighter tomorrows like the Mon Cals, but instead hold fast to the reality of yesterdays. While they profess that the two races should remain in the sea, they have followed the Mon Cals into their floating cities and out among the stars. They have become dependant on the Calamarians, and this dependancy has led to resentment and outright hatred. Rumors persist that it was a small number of Quarren who helped the Empire originally invade the planet. In the face of invading forces, Quarren cooperated with the Mon Calamari to repel the Imperials. But since that day, many Quarren have fled the planet to seek a life elsewhere in the galaxy.

Use the 'checkvnums' command before assigning a range to ensure that there will be no vnum conflicts. You can also use the 'vnums' command for a complete list of currently allocated ranges, and the 'newzones' command for a complete list of prototype vnum ranges. Warning: *Never* assign any vnums to a character who has another vnum range assigned to them via 'aassign'. Simply be sure to have the character type 'aassign none' before assigning vnums to them. Example: massign Joseph 9000 9099 This will assign the vnum range from 9000 to 9099 for rooms to Joseph. It is best to keep an areas object, room and mob range the same. Be sure to always use 'checkvnums' to ensure the vnums you are going to assign are clear. See CHECKVNUMS, ZONES, NEWZONES, VNUMS ~ 31 RAT~ Syntax: rat vnum1 vnum2 command [parameters] Rat, or 'range at' is the at command with the added parameters of two room vnums.

You can also WAKE other sleeping characters. ~ 31 RESTORE~ Syntax: restore <victim> Syntax: restore all Restore returns the victim to full hitpoints, force and movement. Restore all can be done once per day (real time) by any Saint and above, and will 'restore' every link-live player in the game. Restore alls such as this are limited to once every 6 hours, so if one Savior does one, another cannot do one until 6 hours has passed, regardless of whether or not they have not done one that day. A Greater God or higher can do a restore all whenever they wish, and are not constrained by the above limitations. Use 'restoretime' to see when the last restore all was done.

Though they almost never go into the scientific fields, their hand-to-hand combat tactics are some of the best in the Galaxy. For a long time before external contact was made, the Rodian people fought and killed their own people. When outside contact was established, they quickly spread far and wide, seeking work as mercenaries, combat teachers, assassins, body guards, and especially bounty hunters. Rodain culture is divided into different families. Even now, families sometimes wage long wars against each other, rather than moving against the outside war. ~ 31 ROOM ROOMFLAG ROOMFLAGS~ Toggling the ROOMFLAG option in config will allow you to see all the flags which are set ON in a room.

Selonians are equally comfortable walking upright or on all-fours. Each hand or foot is equipped with retractable claws for climbing or defense. The Selonian race is believed to be descended from a predatory aquatic mammal which lived in riverside burrows, but later dug deeper into the ground and farther from water.

If it has been running less than 18 hours and the reboot time has not been set manually, the reboot does not take place (nor do the automatic warning echoes). Echoes: when a scheduled reboot is coming up, the mud will send out echoes to that effect.

They will provide the best protection and prove the most dangerous to your enemies. ~ 1 SPEED VELOCITY ACCELERATE~ Syntax : speed <speed> Sets speed of vessel in realspace. BTW velocity should never have been used here as it doesn't require you to specify a direction too. ~ 31 SPELLCOMPONENTS~ T### check for item of type ### V##### check for item of vnum ##### Kword check for item with keyword 'word' G##### check if player has ##### amount of gold H#### check if player has #### amount of hitpoints Special operators: + don't consume this component @ decrease component's value[0], and extract if it reaches 0 # decrease component's value[1], and extract if it reaches 0 $ decrease component's value[2], and extract if it reaches 0 % decrease component's value[3], and extract if it reaches 0 ^^ decrease component's value[4], and extract if it reaches 0 && decrease component's value[5], and extract if it reaches 0 and ! will make the power fail if the caster is carrying that component. Example: V1100 V+1101 The power will only succeed if the caster is carrying objects of vnums 1100 and 1101. The object of vnum 1100 will get consumed by the power, and the object of vnum 1101 will not. With the decremental operators (@#$%^^&&), the object must have at least a value of 1 in the respective location for the power to succeed. ~ 31 SPELLFLAGS~ water water based (create water, ice powers) earth interracts with nature (earthquake) air involve the air or winds astral involve the astral plane (astral walk) area an "area power"... affects everyone in the room distant affects something far away reverse has a reverse affect save_half_dam victim can save for half damage save_negates victim can save for no effect accumulative can be cast repeatedly to have an increased effect recastable can be cast again to refresh the power nobrew cannot be brewed into a potion noscribe cannot be scribed onto a scroll group affects everyone in the caster's group (same room only) object specifically affects an object (for target 'ignore') character specifically affect a character (for target 'ignore') ~ 31 SPELLS~ Type 'practice' to get a list of powers currently available to you and to see to what extent you have them practiced.

Shows current ship when no ship specified. ~ 0 STEAL~ Syntax: STEAL coins <character> Syntax: STEAL <object> <character> STEAL attempts to steal coins, or an object, from a mob or another player. There are penalties for using STEAL on other players. In order to STEAL successfully, you must practice the skill. &w&RWarning:&W If you are caught using this skill, it is ample reason to kill you. ~ 1 STRENGTH STR~ Strength (STR in your 'score') represents your character's physical power. The most common concern with strength deals with how much your character can carry. For each additional point of strength you gain an additional amount of maximum carryable weight. Any character with 20 strength can carry 500kgs; Wookiees can have a maximum of 25 strength, and can therefore carry up to 999kgs when their strength is at its maximum. Strength also affects (among other things): - damage roll and hitroll; for each additional point of strength, each of these will increase - chances of success for bash, stun, bashdoor, shove and drag, and the ability to dual-wield heavier weapons - your max levels in classes where strength would naturally relate. ~ 0 STUN~ Syntax: stun <mob> Stun is a skill which can only be used once a fight has started. It will stun your opponent if successful. ~ 1 'SULFUROUS SPRAY'~ With the incantation 'Sulfurous Spray,' the casting mage culls from the air the elements necessary to form a strong acid which rains down upon his opponent or opponents. This strength and velocity of the spray is such that it can work its way into various forms of armor and clothing, and it is also able to harm opponents one might think resistant to such attacks, due to its magical nature. ~ 0 SULLUSTAN~ This race of small, mouse-like humanoids were distinguished by their huge black eyes, loose jowls, and pointed ears. They salivate quite often, and live underground to avoid Sullust's inhospitable atmosphere. Their ingenuity and adaptability has allowed them to created huge underground cities, and their technology has grown at an incredibly fast rate. They have an intense sense of direction, having lived in caves all their lives, and have the uncanny ability to remember a path or map exactly, even after the first time they see it. Thus, many of the Sullustans have become pilots and navigators. Many Sullustans, after the age of 30 standard years, begin to experience corneal defects, and must be fitted with special visors. ~ 31 SWITCH RETURN~ Syntax: switch <character> Syntax: return SWITCH switches you into the body of another character (who must not already have a descriptor, e.g. you can't switch into a PC). RETURN returns you to your original body. ~ 1 SWREALITY~ ~ 1 SYSTEMTALK~ Syntax : systemtalk <message> Sends message to all ships in current starsystem. ~ 1 TAKEDRUG DRUG DRUGS SPICE RHYLL~ .

It is the customary hiding place for smugglers and all other pursuers of illegal activities. As such, the bounty hunter's guild has established their headquarters there. Many other citizens have established shops, cantinas, and other businesses to lure travelers, and their credits, into the system. ~ 1 TEACH~ Syntax : teach <player> <skill> If you have a skill at adept (100%) you may teach it to another player. Player must be able to practice skill normally to be taught. ~ 0 TECHNICIAN~ The life of a technician revolves around...well...technical things. They have the ability to remove bugs from people and to install and remove upgrades from ships. Not only that, but they can repair ships as well. This makes a technician a very valuable person to have around. ~ 0 TELEPORT~ Syntax: feel <teleport> This power takes you from your current location to a random location somewhere in the world. ~ 1 THIEF THIEVES~ ~ 0 THIEF THIEVES~ The thief is a dark character which makes use of many skills often deemed improper by the rest of society. The skills of the thief reflect his way of life, namely sneaking in the dark, picking locks, and attacking from behind with deadly backstabs. Thieves have always had a bad reputation so don't be suprised if you are always under suspicion. Thieves start off fairly weak, but as they gain skills such as backstab and circle they soon become dangerous foes. A thief is always usefull when there is a lock that needs opening or an item that needs to be stolen. ~ 31 THINK~ Syntax: think <message> Allows you to use the 'think' channel, which functions the same as all other channels and can only be seen by those of high enough level. The level for access to think can be controlled with 'cset'. See CSET ~ 1 THROW~ . Syntax: Throw <object> <direction> Syntax: Throw <object> <ship> A usefull skill that allows you to throw what you are holding into an connecting room. See also help grenades. ~ 0 TICK~ Many of the actions in the game are based upon interval timers, including combat, most autonomous monster actions, hp/force/move regeneration, power duration, weather, and area resetting. Of these timers, the hp/force/move regeneration timer is popularly called the 'tick'. Ticks in the game average 30 seconds of real time, but the actual amount varies randomly from 15 seconds to 45 seconds. Area resetting happens roughly every 3 minutes if there are no characters in in the area; less often (15 minutes) if any characters are present. Also note that objects lying on the ground will not be regenerated if anyone is in the area when it resets. Area resets are indicated by 'squeaking noises' just prior to the reset. ~ 31 TIMECMD~ Syntax: timecmd <command> Example: timecmd mpstat <mob> Returns the time required to execute the specified command for that instance of its execution. ~ 1 TIMELINE~ Rebellion defeats Imperial forces at Endor: Death Star II, Emperor Palpatine destroyed. The Rebellion renames itself the New Republic, and both sides reorganize their ranks. A short time after, Coruscant captured by the Republic. Grand Admiral Molly Wintermute begins campaign against the New Republic. Coruscant retaken, along with several previously Imperial planets. The Empire appoints a new Emperor, Jent. Emperor Jent Assassinated, his death is made to look like a suicide. Grand Admiral Wintermute becomes Empress Wintermute, and rekindles the war. Empress Molly assassinated by Koensayr, a reknowned bounty hunter. Her clone vanishes from vats before imprinting. The Empire is thrown into a temporary turmoil, and Grand Admiral Nfinet becomes Emperor. He resigns position after a short tenure. The hunter Koensayr is killed by Imperial forces, and the Empire regains control of majority of the galaxy. New Republic forces thrown into disarray. Corran steps up to lead the Republic, and is killed shortly thereafter. Kram takes his position, and orders a naval attack upon the Empire. New republic forces decimated by SSD Aggressor and ISD Cataclysm. Leader Kram and Captain Venex killed in the battle, along with several Republic vessels. An unknown terrorist group takes over the SSD Aggressor demanding a ransom of 1,000,000 credits. Imperial forces quickly fire upon their own ship, and the terrorists flee. Imperial Defect Blevins killed while escaping, the second party escapes clean. ISD Cataclysm severely damaged, and destroyed while repair crews are working onboard. Emperor Sykar, overseeing the repair, is presumed dead. Yet again, more turmoil within the Empire... SSD Lusankya targets ISD Valor with no obvious reasoning, and destroys it with several thousand personnel onboard. Ensign Robb, also onboard at the time, manages to send a brief distress signal before being killed. SSD Aggressor destroyed as well, by unknown means. After an extensive search, thousands of legions of stormtroopers are deployed to Mon Calamari to seek out and terminate the Republic leader, Venex. A grand battle ensues between the Empire and Republic, leaving many innocent bystanders , Stormtroopers, and Republic forces dead. Venex is among these. ~ 35 TIMELINE.HLP~ ~ 0 TITLE~ Syntax: title <string> Sets your title to a given string. The game supplies a title when your character is created and when you advance a level. You can use TITLE to set your title to something else. ~ 0 TOGORIAN~ a race of bipedal feline aliens from Togoria, the Togorians have long, sinewy limbs and well-muscled bodies that are equally useful moving through a forest or running across an open plain. Their hands and feet are studded with heavy claws, which are retractable on the hands. The Togorians have a society in which the males and females only see each other for a few days each year. The males spend their days wandering the plains and hunting for food, while the females stay in the cities and tend to their business there. The Togorians have a limited technology, including a solar technology maintained by the females, although they are fond of high-tech devices. The Togorian society is presided over by the Margrave, a position held by a male of a certain family line. ~ 1 TONGUE TONGUES~ The different languages include common, wookiee, twilek, rodian, hutt, mon calamari, noghri, ewok, gamorrean, jawa, adarian, verpine, defel, trandoshan, chadra-fan, quarren and duinuogwuin. ~ 1 TOPICS~ Additional topics you may want to look over: *TICK *WIZLIST *EXPERIENCE *EQDAMAGE *CLANS *CHANGES *DAMAGE *NEWS *STORY To view a topic type: HELP <topic> ~ 1 TORTURE~ Syntax : Torture (mob/player) This handy skill allows you to permenatly remove hit points from a mob or player. ~ 0 TRACK~ Syntax: track <mob> Track will assist you in tracking down a mob that is within the area, giving you its general direction.

They have long arms, which end in wide, splayed fingers. Their heads are blunt, with beady red eyes and a mouth full of sharp teeth. Their scales range in color from orange to ochre to brown. Much of their body can be regenerated if lost, so a Trandoshan can fight much harder without risk of permanent injury. Being a vicious, warlike race, the Trandoshans evolved into hunters, and were especially proficient at hunting Wookiees, which inhabited the nearby planet of Kashyyyk. It was a Trandoshan official who sold the idea of enslaving Wookiees rather than simply leveling Kashyyyk to the Empire. ~ 31 TRANSFER~ Syntax: transfer <character> Syntax: transfer all Syntax: transfer <character> <location> Syntax: transfer all <location> TRANSFER transfers the target character, or ALL player characters, to your current location (default) or to a specified location. ~ 31 TRAPFLAGS~ Flags to describe a trap and what triggers it: ROOM - Trap is in a room OBJ - Trap is on an object ENTER - Trap is triggered by entering the room LEAVE - Trap is triggered by leaving the room OPEN - Trap is triggered by opening CLOSE - Trap is triggered by closing GET - Trap is triggered by getting the object PUT - Trap is triggered by putting the object EXAMINE - Trap is triggered by examining the object PICK - Trap is triggered by picking the object UNLOCK - Trap is triggered by unlocking the object NORTH - Trap is triggered by moving north SOUTH - Trap is triggered by moving south EAST - Trap is triggered by moving east WEST - Trap is triggered by moving west UP - Trap is triggered by moving up DOWN - Trap is triggered by moving down See RESET, TRAPSETTING and TRAPTYPES. ~ 31 TRAPSETTING~ Setting a trap is a little tricky. Parameters: <vnum> <type> <charges> <flags> VNUM - The vnum of either the room or object to be trapped. TYPE - The type of trap. (See TRAPTYPES) CHARGES - The number of charges this trap should contain. FLAGS - Flags specifying the characteristics of the trap. (ie: room trap or object trap, what triggers the trap, etc.) See RESETS, TRAPTYPES and TRAPFLAGS. ~ 31 TRAPTYPES~ Types of traps: -------------------------------------------------------------------- | Number | Description | Number | Description | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | 1 | Poison gas | 8 | Flame | | 2 | Poison dart | 9 | Explosion | | 3 | Poison needle | 10 | Acid Spray | | 4 | Poison dagger | 11 | Electric Shock | | 5 | Poison arrow | 12 | Blade | | 6 | Blindness gas | 13 | Sex change power | | 7 | Sleeping gas | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------- See RESET, TRAPSETTING and TRAPFLAGS. ~ 31 TRIGGER~ A trigger is an action, phrase, or game event that causes a program held within a room, mob or object, to begin playing out its commands. Triggers can be anything from a player or mob entering a room, to a player stating a particular phrase within a room, or to a mob or an object. For detailed information on triggers, see: RPTRIGGERS, MPTRIGGERS, OPTRIGGERS ~ 1 'TRUE SIGHT'~ Syntax: feel 'true sight' This power can only be cast upon yourself. It is a combination of infravision (enabling you to see in the dark), detect invisible, and detect hidden. This power also allows you to see through blinding attacks. ~ 31 TRUST~ Syntax: trust <character> <level> TRUST sets a character's trust to the specified level. This is similar to advancing the character for accessing immortal commands, but has no effect on combat strength, et cetera. You can give more trust to mortal (or immortal) characters to give them access to more power without messing up the character. You can also restrict a player's trust to less than their natural level. A trust of 0 means to use the character's natural level again. ~ -1 TSR D&&D AD&&D~ . Dungeons && Dragons (tm) and TSR Hobbies Inc.

DIKUMud's concepts were directly based on TSR's D&&D concepts. ~ 0 TUNE~ Syntax: Tune <channel> This command when in a ships cockpit allows you to tune a ships channel. System talk is channel based so you will only hear comm traffic on the channel your on. ~ 0 TWI'LEK TWI'LEKS TWILEK~ Twi'lek is ther species name of the humanoid aliens with twin head tentacles. They come from the planet Ryloth, located in a system in the Outer Rim. The Twi'lek language combines verbal components with subtle head-tail movements. With the meanings provided by the head-tail movements, Twi'leks can carry on private conversations in the midst of other species. Twi'leks live in vast city complexes located on the planets dark side. Each complex is autonomous, goverened by a head clan of five Twi'leks who jointly oversee production, trade, and other daily endeavours. As the technology level of Ryloth does not support spacefaring capabilities, the Twi'leks must depend on neighboring systems (such as Tatooine), pirates, smugglers, and merchants for their contact with the rest of the galaxy. They attract these ships with their chief export, ryll. The mineral ryll has legitimate medicinal uses, but it is also a popular and dangerously addictive recreational substance used in the Corporate Sector. One hazard the Twi'leks face on a regular basis is slavers, who come to their world to fill their ships with Twi'lek slaves. ~ 31 UNFOLDAREA~ Syntax: unfoldarea <area filename> This command will load up an area file. NOTE: It could be quite dangerous to unfold an area that is already loaded, or one that has not been tested. ~ 1 USE ACTIVATE~ . Syntax : Use (item) Quite obviously lets you use an item. ~ 31 USEPROG~ Syntax: opedit <object> <command> [number] [use_prog] [percentage] The use_prog is an objtrigger that can be used in object programs. The use_prog will be executed when the item is used. To define what will trigger the use_prog, here is a list: * Wands - when you zap * Staves - when you brandish * Food/pills - when you eat * Blood/fountains/drink containers - when you drink * Lights/armour/weapons - when you wear/wield/hold * Potions - when you quaff * Pipes - when you smoke When the use_prog is executed you will not see the standard 'use message' (ie You quaff a violet potion). What you will will be any mpechoes placed in the program. Also, any mobprog commands can be used in use_prog (see MPCOMMANDS). **NOTE** The use_progs on lights, armour, and weapons are executed BEFORE the player wears/holds/wields any item. Therefore, a mpforce to remove the item will not work in the use_prog. You will have to use a wear trigger to accomplish this. ~ 31 USERS~ Syntax: users <host ip> Syntax: users <playername> USERS reports all of the visible users connected to the server, including users in the process of logging in. If used with an argument, it will show all users from that host ip. Shortforms of host will work -- e.x. 205, or 205.113, etc. Shortened names will also work. e.x., users fre would show Fredrick and Fred if they were on at the time. The first number, (desc), is the descriptor number that this user is on. The second number is the user's connected state. (See CONSTATES) The third number is the number of seconds the user has been idle. The fourth number is the remote TCP port on the user's host machine. Next is the user's character name, then the user's host address. (Usually the IP number as name resolving is normally disabled.) The FORCECLOSE command can be used to force a connect to close by its descriptor number. ~ 31 VARIABLES~ This is the list of variables to be used in actiondescs for objects and in mob/room/object programs. VARIABLE MOBILE ACTOR VICTIM RANDOM OBJECT 2ND_OBJECT --------------- ------ ----- ------ ------ ------ ---------- Name $i $n $t $r $o $p shrt_desc/title $I $N $T $R $O $P he/she/it $j $e $E $J -- -- him/her/it $k $m $M $K -- -- his/hers/its $l $s $S $L -- -- a/an -- -- -- -- $a $A See also: MPSTAT, RPSTAT, OPSTAT, MPEDIT, RPEDIT, OPEDIT, TRIGGER, MPTRIGGERS, RPTRIGGERS, OPTRIGGERS, MPCOMMANDS, RPCOMMANDS, OPCOMMANDS, IFCHECKS. ~ 31 VASSIGN~ Syntax : vassign <player> <min> <max> Creates a new area named <playername>.are and assigns it to the <player>. The vnums for the rooms, mobs and objects in the area will be between <min> and <max>. ~ 1 VECTOR COURSE TRAJECTORY~ . Syntax : Course (x) (y) (z) This is used to adjust your course once inside a planatary system so you may attack other craft or land. ~ 0 VENTRILOQUATE~ Syntax: feel ventriloquate <speaker> <message> This power throws your voice, making it appear that some other object or character in the room is saying your message. Victims who make their saving throw will know that someone is using ventriloquism, but not who. Victims who fail their saving throw will think that the object or character really did say your message. ~ 0 VERPINE ROCHE "ROCHE ASTROID FIELD"~ Verpine are an advanced species of bipedal insectoids. Their thin, sticklike bodies have awkwardly articulated joints and chitinous shells. Two antennae jut from the sides of their heads, which have two large eyes and short snouts. The Verpine live in the Roche asteroid field, using great repulsor shells to keep occupied asteroids from crashing into each other and to deflect other bits of space debris. They are innate experts in most fields of technology, and their childlike fascinations with all types of machinery has served them well. They hollow out the asteroids for use as colonies, sealing them against space and filling them with all kinds of technological wonders. The Verpine have developed into expert starship builders. The Slayn & Korpil Corporation, named for two neighboring Verpine colonies, has been well known and respected since the days of the Old Republic. It was the Verpine who helped admiral ackbar design and build the B-Wing starfighters. ~ 31 VNUMS~ Syntax: vnums [low] [high] Lists the vnum range for rooms/mobs/objects in all prototype areas. ~ 1 VOTING VOTE VOTES~ Syntax: note vote <number> open/close/yes/no/abstain Once a note has been posted on a bulletin board, the author may open voting with 'note vote <number> open'. All those who can read the board may then vote on the issue in the note with 'note vote <number> yes/no/abstain'. The author may close the voting; the syntax for that should be clear enough. Note list will show whether a note is not a voting note, open to voting or closed to voting. The character that separates the author and the recipient in 'note list' will be a colon, a capital V or a capital C accordingly. ~ 31 VSEARCH~ Syntax: vsearch <vnum of target object> Returns all instances of the target object presently in the game, as well as their level. Allows location of objects via vnum instead of by keyword, useful for locating rekeyed and renamed objects. See OWHERE ~ 2 WAR WARTALK~ Syntax: war <message> Wartalk is a channel created as a haven for those players who like to openly discuss their exploits in combat - and brag against their opponents.
