Note: This table lists core commands. For full details, see sections below. Targeting filters enhance action and control commands; see Targeting Filters. Additional commands may exist; experiment safely.

Introduction to Text Commands

Text commands augment the default icon-based actions (visible in the action indicator). Enter them via the keyboard into the command line. Press <enter> to allow text entry and press <enter> again to execute.

The command/conversation toggle (left of command line) auto-redirects if input starts with "/" (e.g., "/hello" converses even in command mode). Alternatively, you can switch between command and conversation modes by pressing <tab> or clicking on the toggle directly.

Commands follow a standardized format, but variations exist—experiment safely. Spelling and syntax must be exact; errors yield "That is not a valid command."

• Repeat commands with again (or a), which re-executes the last command, including targets or filters.
• Use up/down arrows to scroll command history (e.g., for alternating sequences like "olaf, train" then "swap").
• Commands execute one at a time; no combining.
• Many commands (e.g., action or entity-related) support advanced targeting filters via @[filter1:filter2:...]. See Targeting Filters.

Volume

Adjust game volume via Settings at startup or command line.

• Settings: Use the in-game menu.
• Command line: volume 50 → Sets volume to 50%.

Climbing

Attempt pits, cliffs, or walls. Success: strength, encumbrance, class (Martial Artists/Thieves advantaged), luck. Needs empty hand(s) (most pits: two). "Down" in pits risks fall—use climb down.

• climb up: Ascends.
• climb down: Descends.

Controlling Summons and NPCs

Guide summons (e.g., phantasms) or certain NPCs (e.g., "gus, follow"). Prefix with name/abbrev (e.g., "ph" for phantasm, "dj", "ef", "1-3", "all").

They understand movement, carrying, pushing.

Notes: Can't obey if out of hearing; can't climb ropes (yet?).

Examples:

• ph, follow
• all, stop
• all, attack orc
• all, trail 1
• all, begone
• 1, take coin
• 1, dump coin or 1, dump coin on counter
• all, w w w → Moves 3 west.
