On the game screen, the Every command square, at the top of the menu on the right, opens a palette of all the game's commands as squares. It is there so that you never need to type: what the panels do not already offer (Gear for your objects, the picture to walk, a monster's menu to attack, the hotbar to fight) is in it. It is also the place to discover what the game can do.
Opening it
- The Every command square, at the top of the menu.
- Ctrl+K from anywhere on the game screen.
- The ☺ button of the chat opens it on the socials.
Finding a command
The commands are sorted by theme, one tab each; Recent holds the last ten you used, and the palette opens on it. The search field finds a command by its name or by what it does: type "poison", "gold" or "door".
Running it
A click runs the command. If it needs something, the palette asks for it first, with the right choices:
- someone: the players and monsters standing here (rescue, beep, a social…);
- an object: what you carry or wear (quaff, sell, envenom, remove…);
- here: what lies in the room (get, sacrifice, enter a portal, read a sign);
- an exit: the room's exits, closed or locked ones marked (open, unlock, pick a lock);
- a choice: buttons ready to click (the questmaster's request, complete, your points…; the Grand Arena's join, fight, forfeit; training; the healer's spells; the war vote);
- a word or a number: a small field (say, tell, deposit, split, alias, title…).
Leaving the game, destroying an object or attacking a player asks you to confirm first. The answer comes where it belongs: what you read (score, who, help) in the journal, a description (look, examine) in a card, the rest a moment at the top of the screen and in the feed.
Into your shortcuts
The 📌 on a square puts the command in the first free shortcut square of your hotbar; when all twenty are taken, it asks which one to replace. A command aimed at someone then strikes the character you selected, or your opponent. The shortcut chooser (the ⚙ of the shortcuts) has a Commands tab too. Your squares are kept with your character, on any computer.
