Title: Prompt

Small idea, add a parameter option to the prompt for listen status. Might be only me who wants this, dunno.

I'd expand this and ask for:

Listen
Watch
Guard

I hate when I'm in a tavern with a fighter-type character, and was recently guarding an exit. Then I happen to be guarding the tavern exit, because I forget to turn guard off.

Attach your prompts to your account, not your character.

How?

FWIW, many such 'convenience' settings such as this, brief/compact, etc... will be saved on the account instead of the character in Arm 2.

Is it possible to have a 'reminder' or something for Brand New Players ?

Don't you start out with no prompt?

I'm thinking it might help people to ask them to read Help Prompt when they start... or even have a few prompts pre-programmed?

I think it would be helpful if there was 4-5 'generic prompts' that new players can choose from as well as having the ability to make their own.

Very good suggestion. A simple 'help prompt' attached to the end of the starting prompt to help assist those who are new to Zalanthas.
