NEW COMMANDS AND NEW MUD BEHAVIOR:
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
** Your character no longer gains move points with age. However, age
|
|
does still affect your HMV gains. Also, move point modifier objects
|
|
now work correctly.
|
|
|
|
** You can now use "all" and "all.x" very generally with the get, put,
|
|
drop, junk, donate, give, wear and remove commands. Type HELP GET
|
|
for more info.
|
|
|
|
** The "track" function will show you the first step on the shortest
|
|
path to anyone in the game.
|
|
|
|
** If you drop your link for more than 1 hour, you will be force-rented
|
|
at 25% greater than normal rent prices. If you don't have enough
|
|
money to rent with, your most valuable items will be junked until
|
|
the money you have can cover your items.
|
|
|
|
** You can now remove your own messages from the board. Also, if you
|
|
put someone else's name in parentheses in the message header, they
|
|
will be able to remove the message too.
|
|
|
|
** The MIDGAARD MAIL SYSTEM is now complete. The Post Office is north
|
|
of the entrance to the Grunting Boar inn. Stamps cost 150 coins.
|
|
|
|
** Fountains have now been implemented. You can drink from fountains
|
|
or fill containers from fountains using the FILL command.
|
|
|
|
** The SHOUT command, as always, only reaches people in your zone (you
|
|
can see who these people are by typing WHERE). The HOLLER command
|
|
reaches everyone in the game but costs 10 movement points.
|
|
|
|
** When you are writing a message, you will now not be interrupted
|
|
by tells, shouts, emotes, socials, and even people talking in the
|
|
same room.
|
|
|
|
** The WIMPY command has been upgraded so you can set at how many hit
|
|
points you flee. Type HELP WIMPY for more info.
|
|
|
|
*****************************************************************************
|
|
IF YOU LEAVE THE GAME FOR MORE THAN AN HOUR, either by renting or plain
|
|
quitting, your hit points, move points, and mana will be fully restored
|
|
when you come back! This doesn't work if you're poisoned.
|
|
*****************************************************************************
|
|
|
|
** Use the ASSIST command to engage in mortal combat with someone in the
|
|
room who is getting pummeled.
|
|
|
|
** Use the SPLIT command to split gold among the members of your group
|
|
(including yourself) who are in the room. i.e. If you are in a group
|
|
with 4 other people who are in the room with you, type "SPLIT 100"
|
|
to give each of them 20 coins.
|
|
|
|
** You can use the VISIBLE command to break a spell of invisibility before
|
|
it expires.
