Thank you, Amanda.

Be prepared for page spam when you do this in a heavily populated storeroom, though.

Indeed. But it's still rather handy for finding strange things.

ie, I had a room IG a while back whose description said nothing about shelves, and there were no shelf 'items' that were hauled in, but with key . I found 3 shelves in there that were loaded down with stuff. And it shows other things which have null ldescs as well, like chairs pulled away from built-in tables.

You people want realism and harshness, don't expect the gold silk lounge in the middle of the 10x10 room to be invisible except when you want to pile your phat l00tz onto it. :)

Stand

It's like a reset button. Breaks hide, resets your long description, etc. (etc meaning I'm not sure what else)

'vis' also breaks hide, I believe, and spells that might cause you to be hidden magically. It's a command without a helpfile like 'flip' so it should fit right in here.

The rugged, white-eyed man tells you, in sirihish,
  "All right, dame, you can get visible now."
You say, uncertainly, in sirihish,
  "All right. I want to visiblate."
You shuffle your feet, making crunching sounds in the sand and scree.
You say, voice rising a pitch, in sirihish,
  "I'm still unvisible."
The odd-eyed, wind-swept male says, helpfully, in sirihish,
  "Just...make yourself.  Think about yourself being visible."
You say, hysteria entering your voice, in sirihish,
  "I dunno how! It ain't workin'."
You exclaim, to the rugged, white-eyed man, in sirihish,
  "Sarge, I'm all 'gickered up an' it's STUCK!"
The odd-eyed, wind-swept male says, out of character:
  "vis"
The rugged, white-eyed man says, out of character:
  "type vis"
You shout, sand flying as you kick it, in sirihish,
  "I CAIN'T DO IT I AIN'T A WIGGLER!"
The sword is sharp, the spear is long,
The arrow swift, the Gate is strong.
The heart is bold that looks on gold;
The dwarves no more shall suffer wrong.

"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.

"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."

"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.

"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."

Drop one obsidian coin on the floor.

>flip coin

If it does not work, you are not standing. You will need to stand.

For other 'coin' objects that are not obsidian coins, you can keep them in your inventory.

The code that supports this is just BEGGING for someone to app a Two Face character.

"key ."



Shows you EVERYTHING lookable in the room. Found a painting in the tavern in Freils that I never knew what there before.
The man asks you:
     "'Bout damn time, lol.  She didn't bang you up too bad, did she?"
The man says, ooc:
     "OG did i jsut do that?"

:) I think I told you about it almost three months ago on IM, Tort-alllllllllll. Kevo discovered it like... 1-2 weeks after the code was redone to allow targetting with multiple keywords.

You can add emotes when packing/unpacking a mount.

Unpack <item> <mount> (Idly cutting at the ropes) [letting it roll off, to the ground]

Pack <item> <mount> (Throwing the carcass over ^mount back)

Right?

It would seem that it's intentional.

As far as makes sense to me, the only reason why you can't just type 'key   ' and get the same readout is because it's not parsing anything for that, where it's running up all the things with '.' as part of their referencing now that '.' can be used as a keyword.

*shrug*

Besides, it doesn't show anything that's actually, codedly hidden. It simply shows things with null ldescs and drop descs. Like built-in shelves and shit.

break bottle

From the helpfiles: The break command can be used with bottle objects to create a crude
weapon. You must be holding the bottle to do so.

Yeah, I liked this one as a newbie. I recall vaguely, been in a bar brawl a long time ago and smashing a bottle then threatening to kill someone with a clay shard.

EDIT: Like, the bar brawl occurred in-game. Not in real life. *coughs*
