BUILD Syntax: build <direction> Syntax: build The build command allows you to build your own room within the realms of Exodus. Rooms do not come cheap and they cannot be built everywhere. If you wish to build your own room, you must acquire enough money to buy the room, and must find a suitable development area in which to stake your claim. Once you find this area, you can use the build command with a directional argument to build your room in that direction from the current room. Your room starts out in a very minimal, bare state. In order to customize the room to your tastes, you should enter the room and type the build command again, without any arguments. This will put you into a build menu that allows you to easily and quickly change your room to match your tastes, assuming you can afford the changes. The prices for each change will be listed on the build menu. The main building menu presents you with six choices: (1) Remodel your room : Allows you to change the description of you room, so that players see a different message when they 'look' in your room. (2) Rename your room : Allows you to change the name of your room that appears above your room description when players type 'look' in your room. (3) Edit room flags : Allows you to add or remove special flags in your room. (4) Edit room keywords : Allows you to create and remove special room keywords, so that when players type 'look <keyword>' in your room, they see the description you supplied. (5) Edit room doors/keys : Allows you to create or remove doors and keys from your room, to limit access. (6) Exit building menu : Exits the building menu and brings you back to the main exodus prompt. If you choose the remodeling room option, you will be placed into a small text editor that you can use to enter the new description of your room. When you are finished, you should type the '@' key and hit return on an otherwise blank line. If you choose the rename room option, you will be prompted for the new room name. Enter it carefully, as the line you enter will become your new room name unless you choose to buy a new one. If you choose the edit room flags option, you will be placed in a submenu that allows you to easily add and remove flags. To add a flag, simply type 'A' followed by the number of the room flag to add (shown on the menu) and return. If you have enough money to buy the room flag, it will be added to your room. If you change your mind, you can delete flags you have added by selecting '2' followed by the number of the room flag to remove (also shown on the menu) and return. You may leave this submenu and go back to the main menu by typing '3' followed by return. The flags available for adding to your room include: Room is dark (the room is always dark, those without light sources cannot see inside it), No Mobs Allowed (mobs cannot enter your room), Room is Private (only two people may be in your room at one time), No Mounts Allowed (no mounted mobibles will be allowed in your room), Room is Indoors (the room is indoors and its inside will not be affected by the weather or time of day). If you choose the edit keyword option, you will be placed in a submenu that allows you to add and remove keywords. To add a keyword, select '1' at this menu. You will be prompted for the keyword name and for the description that should be shown when this keyword is looked at. If you later change your mind, you can use the '2' option at this menu to delete the keyword. You may leave this submenu and go back to the main menu by typing '3' followed by return. If you choose the doors/key edit option, you will be placed in a submenu that allows you to add and remove doors and keys. To add a lockable door to your room, select '1' followed the the letter for the room direction (supplied on the menu) and return. The door will be created for you. If you change your mind and wish to delete a door, select '2' at this menu followed by the letter for the room direction and return. If you want to make a single key for a door you have created, to limit access to your room, select '3' at this menu. You may leave this submenu and go back to the manu menu by typing '4' followed by return. You may leave the build menu and return to the normal exodus prompt by typing '6' at the main menu. ** CLAN STUFF: ?? UH DUNNO ??
